Stonedfish; This is a great update. They lost about 40% of unloading capacity because of wind i think yesterday (only did 3), but the wind is now going down the whole time, and the forecast is good for the rest of June now. So i don't think they'll lose any more time to weather for the month, cross fingers.
They have already done 2 today, and i think given the position of where the transhippers are they are a good chance to do 5 or 6 today.
Below are the new rates, 33 m t average in June and 35 m tonnes over last 11 days even with the bad weather over 2 of those 11 days, 34 m tonne average since June 6.
I'm calling it now, they are going to exceed 32 m tonnes for June, and i think by the end of month will be close to a 34 m tonne average for June.
I'll send more detailed notes later, but my prelimiary analysis is that over an entire year they will only lose about 10% of transhipper capacity to weather events on average, whereas MINs had assumed 15% loss of days.
And i think as they get more experienced they can lift the 5 shipper run rate when conditions are good above 40 m t per day, probably to about 43 m tonnes per day.
