Dirty Tanker Freight Rates

Daily dirty tanker freight rates for crude oil and fuel oil routes across VLCC, Suezmax, Aframax, Panamax, Handysize and MR vessel classes, plus selected barge routes. CommodityScope publishes indicative spot freight assessments in USD/mt for defined trade lanes and cargo sizes, with daily history and monthly averages.

What These Rates Measure

A dirty tanker freight assessment is CommodityScope's estimate of the prevailing voyage freight rate for moving one tonne of crude oil or fuel oil from the loading area to the discharge area on the stated vessel class and cargo size. The published unit is USD/mt of cargo.
