Stacy, GEPers, I have a friend who is a shipping agent, and I sent him your question. His response, with both data and pointers on online sources, is below. If you have questions on the data, let me know.

From: Joe Gross [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2012 2:35 PM To: Wallace, Richard Subject: Re: global shipping data Rich: There are a few ways to attack this. One possibility, depending upon what your friend wants to do with the information, it's that maybe a shop with a research department would be willing to work with her free of charge, for equal author billing and the ability to distribute the end product. Just a thought, and of course no guarantee that a shop would want to do this, but maybe something to consider. But, I can give you some info regarding Tanker and Bulker fleets, and some suggestions for import/export data that maybe your friend hasn't come across yet, as follows: Bulkers (all in million deadweight tons) 2009: Newbuilding Orders: 15.2 Deliveries: 42.6 Scrapped: 12.9 Total Fleet: 465.3 Total Order Book: 252.6 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 55.7 2010: Newbuilding Orders: 85.1 Deliveries: 79.3 Scrapped: 5.7 Total Fleet: 544.0 Total Order Book: 253.7 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 46.6 2011: Newbuilding Orders: 28.7 Deliveries: 88.3 Scrapped: 23.3 Total Fleet: 613.3 Total Order Book: 206.0 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 33.6 Crude Oil Tankers: 2009: Newbuilding Orders: 7.9 Deliveries: 33.4 Scrapped: 5.7 Total Fleet: 323.4 Total Order Book: 95.0 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 29.6 2010: Newbuilding Orders: 27.8 Deliveries: 26.4 Scrapped: 9.1 Total Fleet: 311.1 Total Order Book: 89.6 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 28.8 2011: Newbuilding Orders: 3.5 Deliveries: 29.1 Scrapped: 5.3 Total Fleet: 321.4 Total Order Book: 57.0 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 17.7 Product Tankers: 2009: Newbuilding Orders: 0.9 Deliveries: 14.7 Scrapped: 2.1 Total Fleet: 115.6 Total Order Book: 35.5 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 30.9 2010: Newbuilding Orders: 3.6 Deliveries: 13.5 Scrapped: 3.6 Total Fleet: 136.8 Total Order Book: 21.4 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 15.6 2011: Newbuilding Orders: 3.5 Deliveries: 8.0 Scrapped: 2.3 Total Fleet: 150.3 Total Order Book: 16.1 Order Book as % of Existing Fleet: 10.7 Also, the website for Charles Weber (where I used to work) has some excellent information about the tanker fleet, oil demand, etc. Go to www.crweber.com<http://www.crweber.com> and click on the "Market" tab. Once that loads, there are a few other tabs discussing different issues. The Energy Information Administration (www.eia.gov<http://www.eia.gov>) has some good info about petroleum, natural gas, and coal imports and exports, along with a host of other interesting info. On the main page, at the top, roll the mouse pointer over "Geography" and you'll see a few choices. Click on "International Energy Statistics" and you'll be able to pull out all sorts of info in a few different ways. If your friend is looking for info regarding other commodities like grain, my sources aren't quite as good, but I know that the USDA has import/export data. Go to www.usda.gov<http://www.usda.gov>, and under "Topics" click on "Marketing and Trade". Next, click on "Data and Statistics" where there are a bunch of options to go to. Under the section titled "Foreign Agricultural Service" click on "Current World Production, Market and Trader Reports", and then click on "Grains: World Markets and Trade", and it will open up the latest report, which has import/export data. So - hope this helps.

I'm thinking of aggregate amounts of shipping to/from particular locations. Ideally, I'd love to have total tonnage information, and totals for oil, coal and maybe some other commodities separately. I have played around online and I don't seem to be asking the internet gods the right questions to produce the right dataset. Please advise. --Stacy Stacy D.
