长期来奄奄一息的世界海运业,目前在一些地区又有了生机,不少轮船公司重新尝到了赚钱的滋味。其中,获利最丰的是一伙驰骋于东京、香港、伦敦的资产股票交易场所的轮船主。但大多数轮船公司还未摆脱每况愈下的厄运。全球运输能力过剩的现象正在发生变化,这主要是因为新船大大减少。一些工业国如日本、美国、瑞典、英国和西德等国不再给予造船业大量补贴,致使建造新船的费用大幅度上涨,索要新船的订单也就相应减少。欧洲目前的造船能力还不及20年前的4％,日本近几年的轮船订单亦减少50％。这对正在服役中的轮船自然是有利的。当然,海运业的萧条还受其它多种因素的影响,如轮船类别、运输航线、运输季节及货币汇率等。
Long-term dying seaborne industry in the world, now has vitality in some areas, many shipping companies have re-tasted the taste of making money. Among them, the most profitable is a group of ship owners riding in asset trading places in Tokyo, Hong Kong and London. However, most shipping companies have not gotten rid of the bad luck. The phenomenon of excess global transport capacity is changing, mainly because of the significant reduction in new ships. Some industrialized countries, such as Japan, the United States, Sweden, the United Kingdom and West Germany, no longer subsidized the shipbuilding industry. As a result, the cost of building new vessels rose sharply and orders for new ships were also reduced accordingly. The current shipbuilding capacity in Europe is less than 4% 20 years ago, and Japan’s ship orders in recent years have also been reduced by 50%. This is naturally good for ships in service. Of course, the sluggish seaborne industry is also affected by many other factors, such as the types of ships, shipping routes, transport seasons and currency exchange rates.
