Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Introduction • Trade Association for tanker owners • 260 members, 40 countries, 2500 tankers, • 300 Associate Members • INTERTANKO office 25 persons • Representation – IMO, Brussels Washington • Information advisory service • Meeting place • Oslo – London - Washington - Singapore • Lead the continuous improvement of the Tanker Industry’s performance in striving to achieve the goals of: • Zero fatalities • Zero pollution • Zero detentions • 领导油轮工业取得业绩上的不断改进和提高，以努力实现以下目标： • 零死亡事故 • 零海洋污染 • 零港口国控制滞留率

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Introduction • Effect of Single Hull phase out on tanker conversion • Effect of Single Hull phase out on ship recycling • Phase Out Regulation - Stable • Tanker Market - Dynamic

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Tanker Market • 2006 was a profitable year for tanker owners, certainly better than expected • With the exception of 2002, it has also been a good decade • Prestige – Two tier market / Maritime Safety Package • Venezuela strike – US oil from further a field • Bosporus Problems – Congestion / Night transits • Hurricanes in Gulf of Mexico – Oil Production Facility and Refinery closures • Nigeria and Iraq – Hostilities forcing market disturbance • Prudhoe Bay - Partial closure of North America’s largest oil field

Conversion trends Single Hull to Double Hull conversion looking more inviting: Conversion of single hull tankers to double hull is normally not regarded as a major conversion. The flag state is consulted from project to project. Date of construction will not be changed after conversion After conversion to double hull the phase out date of the vessel will no longer be relevant Estimated cost for a VLCC conversion: USD26.6 to 31.6mill. Costs based on; Scope of work Shipbuilding pricing statistics Location of potential yards Expected yard stay during conversion period Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling

Conversion trends Single Hull tankers converted to FPSOs and FSUs Product Tankers converted to Chemical Tanker Type II or III: MARPOL Annex II changes: all chemical products (in particular veg. oils) to be carried on chemical tankers Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Effects on Recycling - 2010 and 2015 key phase out dates in terms of recycling - Potential smoothing of phase out curve

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Effects on Recycling • - 2010 and 2015 key phase out dates in terms of recycling • Potential smoothing of phase out curve: • Smaller tankers continue to trade: Coastal trades Nigeria, China, Indonesia and Mexico • Larger tankers trading to 25 years: LOOP lightering, Japan, Singapore, Middle East. • Conversion options taken

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Effects on Recycling • 1. Regulatory and Political Push • 2007 EC Strategy • Industry Interim Strategy: IMO Guidelines • 2009 Adoption of IMO Ship Recycling Convention • 2012 Entry into Force on IMO Convention (optimistic projection, 2+1 yrs) • 2. Market Force Pull • Fragmentation in yard capability (Basel standards, environmental and safety management systems implemented) • Choice of yard dictated by tanker owner – responsible recycling options

Single hull Tanker Phase out:Effects on Conversion and Recycling Concluding Remarks • Phase out regime will effect recycling and conversion trends • Tanker market fluctuations are and will continue to have major impact • Tankers trading as long as possible due to strong tanker market – decreased recycling and increased conversion • Inter-relation between market, conversion and recycling demonstrated • Trend not limited to larger VLCCs but also smaller tankers – phase out regulation not the only regulation to consider (MARPOL Annex II) • Recycling not limited to phase out, market trends and conversion options but also its own regulatory and political developments • Geographical focus for recycling will rely heavily on implementation of national and international regulations
