Enron Shipping Services Weekly report 37/2000




Highlight
Coeclerici deal is on track for completion in a weeks time. Looking for our
second big cape deal with potentially SK Shipping or Bocimar which would net
out all our underlying expossure with Coeclerici and allow us to keep the
options.
Fixed a Panamax on subject with Bocimar for 3/5 months to do the first grain
cargo ( US gulf/Japan ) with Dreyfus

Market
Short term Medium term Long Term
Handy Max UP Flat Flat
Panamax UP UP Flat

Panamax : Market continues to rise in the east from Australia to China and
.next year based soly on sentiment.
Capes : Market is a little flat as many asian countries were on holiday this
week
Crude is not falling which keeps owners unwilling to discount
