Another day, another load of 66,000MT of corn headed to China.

And a new chart!

Three ships transited out of the humanitarian corridor on 20Nov and four ships transited in.

I wouldn’t say we’re seeing consistent numbers this week but it’s nice to see some real movement out of ports. #myprecious

Two inbound ships were inspected on 20Nov, three outbound ships were inspected, and no others were completed due to weather and fumigation. The JCC reports 75 ships are waiting to move into Ukr ports, and 30 loaded ships are waiting for outbound inspection in Turkish waters.

And, as it’s a Sunday tradition, the Continental charts.

The Run Down

If you heard me in spaces yesterday I talked about the number of inspection teams. Since Russia returned to the BSGI they have generally been working with only three inspection teams per day and this is greatly hampering the number of ships inspected each day.

We are again seeing the numbers of ships waiting for inspection growing and today the JCC specifically noted than some of the inbound ships have been waiting for over a month. This is Russia controlling the shipping while still saying they are working with the partners.

Erdogan is continuing discussions with all parties to the BSGI in hopes of moving an extension forward.

Erdogan isn’t the only hopeful one, the UN also seems to think they may still be able to complete a deal on the Russian ammonia exports.
