  • Holidays are finally over and market players in the Sea of Azov are slowly back on track to usual working attitude, according to Rufco shipbrokers.

    There are several news, which might have potential impact over the market in the nearest future. The first one is, ice class Ice 1 is required for calling at Azov Sea river ports since January 11-12, 2019.

    The second one is quite a sad one – due to the fatal accident with mv “Volgobalt 214” players expect severe attention from PSC to all non-IACS vessels, especially to elderly ships.
