* Figures based on orderbook as of 1 June 2007. Figures for 01/01/2010 should be treated with care. On the one hand, some shipyards can still accept orders for (small) ships to be delivered during 2009. On the other, the figures assume that no ships are scrapped up to 01/01/2010, which, taking into account the age profile of the current containership fleet, is not very realistic.
