The price differential between low and high sulphur bunkers have reduced the payback time for the scrubber installations. Last week we saw a spread between $277 (Rotterdam) and $458 (Fujairah) per tonne. Price difference reduced the payback period to below six months for higher fuel-burning vessels such as VLCCs and container carriers. On average, this type of vessel can expect $30,000- $60,000 per day time-charter equivalent difference between vessels fitted with scrubbers and vessels burning a compliant fuel.
