Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
CoolCo anticipates a moderate increase in TCE rate and time and charter voyage revenues for the third quarter compared to the second quarter, driven by full charter coverage and improved drydock performance. The company expects continued market volatility but sees potential for sudden demand from short shipping strategies and increased ton-mile demand due to longer haul LNG shipments.
Positive Outlook
- Moderate increase in TCE rate and time and charter voyage revenues expected for Q3 2024.
- Full charter coverage and improved drydock performance contributing to positive outlook.
- Newbuilds expected to be delivered later this year, with one already secured for a 14-year charter.
- Long-term sector prospects remain strongly supported by new liquefaction projects increasing LNG volumes.
- Anticipation of increased volatility and demand in the winter market due to global fleet disposition skewed towards the Pacific Basin.
Challenges Ahead
- Continuing market volatility and geopolitical uncertainty.
- Seasonally quieter months impacting chartering activity.
