Important!!!
There will be two different flows for your essay and for your oral exam presentation. That means that they have the same due date and that they need to be uploaded on separate flows of wiseflow (the PDF/Word on the essay part and the slides on the Oral Exam part)

Rubric for Assessing Presentation/Oral Exam
Codes
You can reuse any of the workshops codes. For convenience I have included additional codes at the Assignment Data zip file for data manipulation, graphs, and table generation.
Information and plot code for bunkering stops is also available there.
Databases
Use Clarksons Shipping Intelligence Network (SIN) and World Fleet Register (WFR) as the primary shipping-market sources. Signal Ocean may be used where access is available. Commodity and trade information may be supplemented with UN Comtrade and UNCTADstat, while Copernicus data may be used when weather or climate conditions are material to the analysis.
Historical main commodities volumes (up to August 2025) per shipment
are availlabe on a zip file.
