日媒称，日本船主协会会长武藤光一5日在新年贺词交流会上微笑地表示：“微弱的阳光终于照射进来”海运市场在经历2015年至2016年的创纪录低迷后，从2017年开始缓慢复苏行业内部多数观点认为，全球贸易量将以亚洲为中心增长
According to Japanese media, Koichi taketo, President of the Japanese shipowners' Association, said with a smile at the new year's greetings exchange meeting on the 5th that "the weak sunshine finally shines in." after experiencing a record downturn from 2015 to 2016, the shipping market has slowly recovered from 2017. Most views within the industry believe that global trade volume will grow centered on Asia
据《日本经济新闻》1月19日报道，尤其繁荣的是运输铁矿石和煤炭等的散装船作为运费指标的波罗的海干散货运价指数（BDI）2017年平均达到1145，自2016年起约上升70%，达到4年来的最高水平报道称，载重量的增加导致运送能力过剩，加之海上运输量增长停滞，2016年2月，BDI回落至雷曼危机前的约四十分之一，出现历史性的低迷
According to the report of Nihon Keizai Shimbun on January 19, the Baltic dry bulk freight index (BDI), which is a freight indicator for bulk carriers transporting iron ore and coal, reached 1145 on average in 2017, up about 70% since 2016, reaching the highest level in four years. The report said that the increase in deadweight led to excess transportation capacity, coupled with the stagnation of the growth of maritime transportation volume. In February 2016, BDI fell back to about one fortieth of that before the Lehman crisis, resulting in a historic downturn
但现在恢复趋势明显报道认为，一个有利因素是中国越来越多地从澳大利亚等进口高品质铁矿石和煤炭炼铁，而不是用廉价的国内煤炭和铁矿石，这带动了散装船的需求增加报道称，运输日用品、食品、精密机械等的集装箱船的货物流通也越来越活跃
But now the recovery trend is obvious. It is reported that a favorable factor is that China is increasingly importing high-quality iron ore and coal for iron smelting from Australia, rather than using cheap domestic coal and iron ore, which has led to an increase in the demand for bulk carriers. It is reported that the cargo circulation of container ships transporting daily necessities, food, precision machinery, etc. is also becoming more and more active
截至2017年11月，从亚洲驶往北美的集装箱船连续9个月增加报道称，2017年货物流通非常兴旺，但运费却因竞争激烈而陷入增长乏力邮船、商船三井、川崎汽船三家海运企业合作成立的集装箱船业务一体化公司“ONE”将于2018年4月开始营业，全球性的兼并、重组预计将告一段路
As of November 2017, the number of container ships sailing from Asia to North America has increased for nine consecutive months. It is reported that in 2017, the circulation of goods was very prosperous, but the freight rate fell into sluggish growth due to fierce competition. The container shipping integration company "one", established by the three shipping enterprises of mail ship, merchant ship Mitsui and Kawasaki steamboat, will start business in April 2018, and the global merger and reorganization is expected to come to an end
ONE对货主的价格谈判能力将增强报道称，三家大型海运企业姿态强硬的背后，是贸易量的增加邮船公司社长内藤忠显说：“2017年初，公司曾担心贸易增长率低于经济增长率的情况会一直持续下去”然而，国际货币基金组织（IMF）预测，2017年世界贸易增长率3年来将首次超过经济增长率
One's ability to negotiate prices with shippers will be enhanced. According to the report, behind the tough stance of the three large shipping companies is the increase in trade volume. Tadao NATO, President of the postal shipping company, said: "at the beginning of 2017, the company was worried that the trade growth rate would continue to be lower than the economic growth rate." however, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicted that the world trade growth rate in 2017 would exceed the economic growth rate for the first time in three years
三家公司因为要处理不用的船只，最近2年里将不得不计入约6000亿日元的最终赤字正因为如此，海运市场非常有希望得到恢复报道称，课题也是存在的散装船、集装箱船应对监管的成本预计将增加，会否转嫁到运费上是个焦点
Because the three companies have to deal with unused ships, they will have to account for a final deficit of about 600billion yen in the past two years. Because of this, the maritime market is very promising to recover. It is reported that the subject also exists. The cost of handling supervision of bulk ships and container ships is expected to increase, and whether it will be transferred to freight is a focus
2020年，硫化物的排放限制将加强，要么使用低硫磺燃料，要么设置去除硫磺装置对用于维持船舶平衡的压载水的限制也将越来越严厉海运市场能否真正恢复报道称，今年将是考验各海运企业实力的重要一年
In 2020, the emission limit of sulfide will be strengthened, either using low sulfur fuel or setting sulfur removal devices. The restriction on ballast water used to maintain the balance of ships will also be more and more severe. Whether the shipping market can really recover is reported that this year will be an important year to test the strength of shipping enterprises
