DAILY RHINE AND ARA BARGE FREIGHT RATES REPORT
Daily Access to The Benchmark Price for the Industry.
Daily Rhine and ARA Barge Freight Rates Report
Wherever you work in the transportation of oil products over inland waterways, you need insights and up-to-date information on the going barge freight rates. Only then can you be sure you are making the right deal.
PJK International’s Barge Freight Rates Reports provide information on freight rate levels for transporting oil products by inland tanker barges. Our barge freight rates are recognized as benchmark prices for transport of oil products within the ARA (Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp) region, and from ARA up and down the river Rhine to destinations in Germany, France, and Switzerland. The freight rates are based upon actual spot deals and published daily.
Our freight rates help the transport and shipping market become more transparent in an objective manner. We get our information directly from sources on the ground every day – consulting directly with freight traders, barge operators, brokers, and ship owners for their analysis of this specific market and to get information on closed deals.
And we dig down to get the details. How many deals were made for which products? What are the sizes of the deals being made? What are current trends and historical data in supply and demand? Which vessel sizes are required? How are current conditions affecting the type of barge being used? And so much more.
Weekly Report for Freight Rates in Dark Petroleum Products
In addition to our daily coverage of clean petroleum products (CPP), we also provide a specialized weekly report for barge freight rates in the transportation of dirty petroleum products (DPP). DPP cargoes, such as fuel oil, dirty condensate, and waxy distillate, have a larger residual footprint compared to CPP, which includes lighter products like gas oil, gasoline, Jet A1, and naphtha.
Fuel oil and bunker fuels are the primary products shipped by barge in this segment. Our DPP freight rate reports offer insights specific to this market, with the same rigorous analysis and transparency as our CPP reports. The weekly updates help you understand market dynamics, spot trends, and make informed decisions tailored to DPP transportation.
Whether you’re operating in CPP or DPP markets, our comprehensive barge freight rate reports ensure you stay ahead in an ever-changing environment.
