Market definition

Voyage basis

Voyage freight from Baltic to UK Continent for an MR carrying the stated cargo size, published in USD/mt. It is not a Worldscale quotation, a lumpsum, a TCE, or a physical commodity assessment.

Origin

Baltic

Destination

UK Continent

Vessel class

MR

Cargo

The published cargo size is 30,000 mt of cargo on an MR. It is cargo tonnage, not vessel deadweight. A different cargo size or vessel class is a different series.

Loading window

Loading window is not specified for this Series.

Publication schedule

Daily cadence. Updates follow the daily publication cycle when a qualifying market observation is available. Each value retains its assessment date.

Assessment cutoff is not specified for this Series.

Exclusions and related markets

  • A Worldscale quotation for the same trade lane is a different quoting basis, not this Series.
  • A cargo grade is not specified for this Series. It is not inferred.
  • A different vessel class or cargo size, LPG freight, voyage TCE and physical oil-product assessments are different publications.

The Assessment Midpoint of CS-TFR-CLN-BAL-UKC-MR-30 is formed from this Series’ own USD/mt voyage-freight observations. No related series enters the Assessment Midpoint. Under Clean Tanker Methodology 1.0, qualifying same-date USD/mt observations from other clean tanker series on the same published trade lane may support Assessment Range construction.

Comparability is evaluated against the stated basis; adjustments apply only where the family methodology defines them.

Parent methodology

This specification defines the market basis of CS-TFR-CLN-BAL-UKC-MR-30 and is governed by Clean Tanker Freight Methodology version 1.0.
