Operational challenges due to coronavirus pandemic

The global pandemic brought operational challenges for Concordia Maritime during the year. This applies particularly to crew changes, with the pandemic resulting in longer working periods on board in many cases.

Majority of drydockings completed

During the year, five of the fleet vessels went into drydock for periodic maintenance and investments in ballast water treatment systems.

Position in crude oil segment

Four suezmax vessels were chartered in on short-term contracts during the year. These are joint charters with Stena Bulk, and Concordia Maritime’s share is 33 percent for two of the vessels and 50 percent for the other two.

PRESIDENT'S OVERVIEW

2020 was a year, the like of which we had never experienced before – and hopefully will never have to again. For the tanker market, it was a year of major challenges. It is of course difficult to assess how the market will develop in the future as this is dependent on the course of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, our belief in a gradually stronger tanker market from summer 2021 stands firm.
