TD3C-TCE Calculation

The document describes the process for calculating the net time charter equivalent (TCE) rate for a cargo route from Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia to Ningbo, China (TD3C) for a 300,000 DWT double hull vessel. It details the vessel specifications and voyage details, and outlines the steps to calculate expenses including fuel consumption, bunker costs, port charges and commissions to determine the net income and net TCE rate. Key inputs used in the calculation include bunker prices from Argus Media, port costs from Cory Brothers Shipping, and exchange rates from XE.com.

TD3C NETT TCE VESSEL & ROUTE DESCRIPTIONS.

300,000 mt dwt, double hull. 160,000 grt.


13.0 knots on 70 mt laden / 12.5 knots on 53 mt ballast IFO
In port: 2 days loading 20 mt per day
2 days discharging 110 mt per day
2 days waiting/anchor 10mt per day

Route: TD3C

270,000mt, Ras Tanura/Ningbo laydays/cancelling 15/30 days from index date. Maximum age 15 years.
3.75% total commission.
The calculation includes a weather margin of 5%, with bunkers based on prices for Singapore 0.5% sulphur
marine fuel oil and Singapore 0.1% low sulphur marine gas oil.

TD3C Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Calculation Process

The nett TCE is calculated as the nett income less the total expenses and that result is then divided by the
number of days of the voyage's total duration of employment.

Expenses

- Initially laden and ballast days are calculated. The laden days are derived by adding a weather factor (5%) to
the laden mileage and dividing the result by the daily speed (13.0 knots per hour multiplied by 24 hours). The
ballast days are calculated in the same manner, with the ballast mileage but basis a speed of 12.5 knots.

Because this route involves Emission Control Areas (ECA) there are separate mileages applicable to the 2 areas
where the vessel burns different fuel qualities.

Mileage Days Fuel Cons (per day)


Laden outside ECA 5,812 19.5596 IFO 70
Laden inside ECA 85 0.2861 LSMGO 70
Ballast outside ECA 5,812 20.342 IFO 53
Ballast inside ECA 85 0.2975 LSMGO 53
Waiting outside ECA 2 IFO 10
Loading outside ECA 2 IFO 20
Discharging inside ECA 2 LSMGO 110

- The next step is establishing the bunker consumption which is calculated by multiplying the daily
consumption of each applicable fuel by the relevant number of days.

Days Fuel Total Cons


Laden outside ECA 19.5596 IFO 1,369.17
Laden inside ECA 0.2861 LSMGO 20.02
Ballast outside ECA 20.342 IFO 1,078.13
Ballast inside ECA 0.2975 LSMGO 15.77
Waiting 2 IFO 20
Loading 2 IFO 40
Discharging 2 LSMGO 220
Adding the results from the calculations listed above generates the trip's total fuel consumption. This figure is
then multiplied by the IFO & LSMGO market price per mt (based on Singapore 0.5% sulphur marine fuel oil
and Singapore 0.1% low sulphur marine gas oil as supplied by Argus Media), which produces the total fuel
cost for the trip.

- The trip's Total Expenses are calculated as the sum of the total fuel cost, the load port charges at Ras Tanura
(this figure is divided by the USD/Saudi riyal exchange rate as this port's charges are provided in Saudi riyal)
and the discharge port charges at Ningbo. (this figure is divided by the USD/CNY exchange rate as this port's
charges are provided in Chinese Yuan Renminbi)

Income

- To calculate the Gross Freight of the voyage, initially, the cargo quantity (270,000mt) is multiplied by the
Worldscale flat rate and by the Baltic Exchange daily Worldscale route assessment for TD3C, this result is
divided by 100 (as market levels of freight are expressed as a percentage of the nominal freight rate).
As per Worldscale guidance there is a premium added per tonne of cargo loaded at Ras Tanura. For the exact
method of calculation, please contact Worldscale. Adding this to the calculation described above, produces the
Gross Freight.

- Discounting the gross freight by the broker commission (3.75%) produces the Nett Freight.

Duration

- The total voyage days are the sum of waiting (2), loading (2), combined laden (19.8457), discharging (2),
combined ballast (20.6395) days.

TD3CTCE

- Deducting the total expenses from the nett freight produces the Nett Income

- Dividing the nett income by the duration (46.4852) gives us the Nett Timecharter Equivalent rate for
TD3C.
