Computed Summary — Suezmax · 130,000 mt
Calculated by CommodityScope from the USD/mt observations of Suezmax · 130,000 mt only. These statistics do not combine Aframax and Suezmax assessments. Each statistic states its observation period and calculation method.
The latest assessment of $118.09/mt on 2 November 2026 is unchanged from the previous assessment of $118.09/mt on 30 October 2026.
Method: Absolute change equals the latest assessment minus the previous available assessment. Percentage change equals that difference divided by the previous assessment, multiplied by 100. The two observations are three calendar days apart.
Across the 45 available observations from 1 September 2026 to 2 November 2026, the highest assessment was $153.52/mt on 9 October. The lowest was $53.36/mt on 2 September.
Method: Minimum and maximum of the available assessments within the stated period. These are extrema of the available history, not all-time market records.
The latest assessment is 13.8% below the October 2026 average of $137.05/mt, the most recent completed month with 22 daily observations.
Method: Arithmetic mean of the daily assessments in October 2026. Months still in progress are excluded from this comparison.

CommodityScope Modelled Indicators
Net daily earnings implied by the CommodityScope freight assessment on this lane after commission, bunkers and stated voyage costs. Non-eco and eco profiles use the same freight rate and differ by consumption and fuel basis. A profile is unpublished when its required bunker grade is missing. MR, LR1, LR2, Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC pairs share one speed; Handysize and Panamax use the published Baltic standard-speed and eco-speed bases.
