The majority of the graphs in this report originate from the presentations given at the IUMI conference 2020 by Facts & Figures Committee Chairperson Philip Graham and Vice-Chairperson Astrid Seltmann. These contain further graphs and market trends for reference. Although this is a statistics report we must not forget that shipping is a people business. During the current uncertain environment, we have relied on thousands of seafarers to maintain the flow of goods and commodities that allows us to continue our daily lives. Some have been at sea for many months and we thank them for their hard work, dedication and commitment.
