Samudera Shipping container volume up 12.63% in H1

Average revenue also increased in the first six months.

Samudera Shipping Line Ltd. has reported a 12.63% increase in the volume of its container shipments in the first half (H1) of the year.

In a bourse filing, the company said the volume reached 990,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) in H1 from 879,000 TEU in the same period last year.

The average revenue per TEU also increased to 8.7% to S$320.51 (US$250).

Samudera noted that the “market environment remains volatile.”

Employment days for H1 reached 1,293 days, increasing from 1,190 the previous year, with two vessels joining the fleet in mid of H1 2024.

“All vessels are employed under time charter contracts,” the company said. “Operating margin has been impacted due to technical challenges on certain vessels.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
