Only three Izmir-based Turkish mills still continue to accept ship scrap flow to their yards. Having showed signs of stability for a short period, ship scrap procurement prices in Turkey have started to decrease in line with the pessimist outlook in the deep sea segment, and today, June 6, quotations have decreased further by $5-10/mt in the prices of two mills. The general range is now at $435-440/mt, down from the $440-445/mt levels recorded on Friday, June 3.
In Turkey's Izmir region, the ship scrap purchase prices of local steelmakers are as follows:
