Andreas let's just start with the why rather than the what initially why do you feel it important now to go and place an order for six vessels plus four plus four which I think would if you play if you do fulfill all those orders would mean that you will end up with about 26 of these Aurora class vessels is that right?
10:09
Yes, that's right.
10:10
Although only the first six, so we are at 18 with watches decided.
10:15
And then the rest is obviously options that are good to have.
10:22
But no, I think the why is in a way quite simple.
10:27
Because if you go... year and a half couple of years back we all expected that this sort of large order book should balance out the market and that we should have a at least balanced possibly oversupplied market with reducing charter rates and all of that at this point and but what we have seen is you know Next week, I've been to the industry for six years.
10:57
And during those six years, Chinese car exports have moved from less than a million cars a year till now at a run rate exceeding 10 million.
14:33
Why have you felt the need to sort of soften your sort of environmental approach so much when you were sort of the sort of talisman for the ammonia shipping industry for a while?
2:04
Is that right?
2:05
Yes, that's right.
2:07
Although only the first six, so we are at 18 with watches decided.
2:12
And then the rest is obviously options that are good to have.
2:18
But no, I think the why is in a way quite simple.
2:23
Because if you go...
2:25
A year and a half, couple of years back, we all expected that this sort of large order book should balance out the market and that we should have a at least balanced, possibly oversupplied market with reducing charter rates and all of that at this point.

So why have you felt the need to sort of soften your sort of environmental approach so much when you were sort of the sort of talisman for the ammonia shipping industry for a while?
45:33
years ago?
45:33
That one I don't know.
45:34
But, I mean, I think if you look at it from – I think that one is a bit difficult for me to answer because I think the centennial kind of thing is a little bit of a family thing.
45:49
Right.
45:50
Okay.
45:51
And the family today has two legs in shipping.
45:57
One being her got liners, the other being her Gabby in gas and energy.
50:47
Transformation is like that.
