OUR ECO FLEET

Our newbuilding program for around 100 “Eco” bulk carriers means that now about 90% of the capacity of our owned fleet is made up of environmentally friendly vessels

Fleet Development
(Number of vessels operated)

Oldendorff Carriers normally operates some 700 vessels at any one time.

We usually operate a diversified fleet of some 700 bulk carriers at any one time. To supplement our chartered fleet, we will always maintain a sizeable number of fully-owned vessels. We invest in strategic assets for our core fleet. As the objective is to increase our net worth, we prefer to buy and sell counter-cyclically. Since 1980 alone, we have concluded around 700 deals for buying or selling of ships.

We ordered around 100 ‘eco’ newbuildings in China, Korea and Japan for delivery from 2014 onwards. The new vessels feature very low fuel consumption and a significantly reduced carbon footprint.

Now these environmentally friendly vessels make up about 90% of the capacity of our owned fleet. Furthermore, most of our long-term chartered ships are ‘eco’ types.

For our transshipment trades, we own and operate a large fleet of transloaders, transshipment platforms, floating cranes, barges, tugs, crew boats and other equipment. 

We are currently the largest user of index chartered vessels and typically have between 150 and 180 vessels of all sizes on such floating charter TC or BB contracts (including newbuildings to come).
