Enron Shipping Services Weekly report 37/2000

Highlight
Coeclerici deal is on track for completion in a weeks time.  Looking for our 
second big cape deal with potentially SK Shipping or Bocimar which would net 
out all our underlying expossure with Coeclerici and allow us to keep the 
options.
Fixed a Panamax  on subject with Bocimar for 3/5 months to do the first grain 
cargo ( US gulf/Japan ) with Dreyfus

Market

Panamax : Market continues to rise in the east from Australia to China and
