BRS says aframaxes set for boost when CPC loadings return to full throttle

Aframax tankers should see a rebound when loadings return to normal at the damaged CPC terminal in Russia.

This is the view of French shipbroker Barry Rogliano Salles (BRS), which believes a current trend for shippers to maximise reduced loadings at the Black Sea facility on bigger suezmax tonnage will not last long.

CPC blend consists of 90% Kazakh crude and 10% Russian.
