9. Dingheng Shipping Business Model
Based on our development and successful experience, Dingheng shipping has built up very good reputation in the market and also good relationship with many good petrochemical companies; and with the fast development of Dingheng fleet, we continue to develop business models to suit regional market requirement:
- Positioning at High-end Market
By great effort in the past several years, the company has been approved by SHELL, BP and EXXONMOBIL, and we have signed 18 COA contracts for domestic trading and one COA contract with SHELL Singapore for the international trade, and we are trying to develop more COA contract with the oil Majors in Asia based on our competitiveness in the management ability & efficiency and the cost control advantage.
- Ship Owning and Ship Operation
For the special market such as the domestic trading and special cargo transportation such as MDI/TDI and P.O, we own the chemical tankers and operate the chemical tankers by ourselves, because it is not easy to find the suitable tonnage and we must control the tonnage 100%, so that we can supply the tonnage and service to the clients stably. In this way, Dingheng owns now 11 chemical tankers in operation for domestic trading after 14 years business development, and the business is mainly supported by 18 COAs and also the license to trade between Main land China and Taiwan is also strong and stable. We are also one of the main tonnage suppliers for the spot market for the special cargoes such as MDI/TDI in China due to of our special designed chemical tankers and the size of the fleet.
For domestic trading, the tonnage increment is controlled by the government, which the total tonnage increment of about 60,000 DWT per year, and we can get about 20% of it to keep our domestic trading business developing stably for the long term.
For the international trading, we have developed and built the 8,700 DWT, 9,000 DWT and 13,000 DWT stainless steel chemical tankers which are energy efficient, environment friendly and with special fitness of cargoes, we control these special tonnages to serve the oil majors for the special cargoes.
At the same time, by operating these special chemical tankers, we keep training our management team and crews to be the professional managers and operators, and this kind of business can also enhance our profitability and competitiveness.
- Ship Management and Commercial Management
Based our professional ship management capacity and business development, we can bare boat or time charter the tonnage from some other owners or investors for the long term or short time to develop the market and the business.
Since 2009, we started the international chemical tanker trading business by bare boat chartering 4x13,000 charter the tonnage from some other owners or investors for the long term or short time to develop the market and the business.
Since 2009, we started the international chemical tanker trading business by bare boat chartering 4x13,000 DWT chemical tankers from the Singapore Owner, and ; in 2017, we bare boat chartered 3 x 7,500 DWT coated chemical tankers,1 x 17,000 DWT coated chemical tanker and 2 x 13,200 DWT stainless steel chemical tankers from Angel Shipping to expand our tonnage volume rapidly to meet our business demands.
- Tonnage Supply and Ship Management Supply to the Market
Based on our professional ship management capacity and tonnage expanding, we can time charter our chemical tankers to some of the owners who have the COA contracts or market in Asia or in Europe.
We have chartered out one 13,200 DWT stainless steel chemical tanker to the Norwegian Owner Seatrans for 2+1 years in the good rate,and we can do more if we have more tonnages because of the lack of the new tonnage in European market.
10. Advantages of Dingheng Shipping
- Dingheng's Ship Building Technical and Geographical Advantages
By optimizing the ship design,rationalizing the equipment configuration and purchasing on a large scale, we can build the higher cost performance chemical tankers, and build the absolutely competitive advantage in the world; We have also built the good relationship with the rich experienced European engineers, the research institute, and shipowners to develop the projects according to the market demands.
Based on the 20 years development of the Chinese shipbuilding industry and our knowledge about the Chinese marine equipment, we can choose the right Chinese equipment to lower the building cost and also the operation cost, to consolidate and enlarge our competitivness advantages. Dingheng's new building technical team designs internally the cargo handling system combined with our operation experience, ensuring the reasonableness and economy of the cargo handling system and improvements of the operating efficiency of the ship.
The shipbuilding market moved from Japan & Korea to China since 2000, especially small and medium size stainless steel chemical tanker building business, only Japan still keeps part of the capacity for the large size(larger than 20,000 DWT) stainless steel chemical tanker building business; this movement makes Dingheng have more advantages to develop the fleet.
- Dingheng's Cost-performance Advantage
Dingheng's professional management team, the hard working attitude, and also the efficient management system, makes Dingheng be more efficient for the ship management; comparing with the state-own companies in China, our ROA(return of asset) is at least 10% higher; comparing with the shipowner from the developed countries, our management cost is at least 10% lower.
Based on the rich resource in China in ship design, marine equipment producing, shipbuilders and shipyards, Dingheng can easily get more support from them technically and commercially; and we can build the high cost performance ships for different market; our new building price can be at least 20% lower than the market
price for the same size and same standard chemical tankers.
Dingheng's new fleet developed since 2014 after the financial crisis, is at least 20% cheaper than the similar chemical tankers built by the European owners, and our fuel consumption is at least 30% less than the existed old tonnage for the similar size chemical tankers in the same speed.
- Dingheng's Human Resource and Strategy
Dingheng is the first private shipping company in China to train own crews in the college three years after the company established in 2004; We do realize that crews are the key point for the shipping company, and we have paid high attention to the crew team building since the company established; we have trained 100 crews in 2007 in the University, and we keep doing so up to now.
most of our human resource keep working in the company like the Dingheng family member, and they keep growing up together with the company, some of them grew up as the captain and chief engineer on board after 9 years working experience, this makes the company running more stable and more efficient! growing up together with the company, some of them grew up as the captain and chief engineer on board after 9 years working experience, this makes the company running more stable and more efficient!
