  • Lines seek lasting reform solutions
    IT IS imperative that sustainable solutions are found to make Australia’s waterfront internationally competitive and that integrated transport systems become a reality, according to Liner Shipping Services ceo Llew Russell.
    Speaking at the Plastics and Chemicals Industries Association annual convention in Queensland yesterday, Mr Russell lay the blame for waterfront inefficiencies squarely at the feet of the Maritime Union of Australia.
  • EBA heads for certification
    Following its ‘reluctant endorsement’ by rank-and-file at stopwork meetings yesterday and Monday, the EBA between the MUA and Patrick is expected to be certified this afternoon by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission.
    Waterfront sources said yesterday that while details of the agreed document could not be discussed until it was ratified by the commission, it was understood the union leadership had had to employ ‘hard-sell’ tactics to convince members to accept major changes to their conditions of employment.
    Sources said, however, that those changes could be described as "revolutionary" and in line with the reforms the industry believed were required to institute major improvements in waterfront productivity.
  • Welcome for ALP bounty commitment
    The ALP’S election commitment yesterday to extend the Shipbuilding Bounty until the OECD Shipbuilding Agreement, or a similar agreement, is ratified, was welcomed by a key industry player, John Rothwell of Austal Ships.
    He said the ALP’s commitment at this early stage of the electioneering process should "give the government a bit of hurry-up" in terms of announcing its decision on whether to extend the bounty past its present sunset date of 30 June 1999.
    It is understood that the report of the Shipbuilding Industry Review Panel, which was presented to Industry Minister John Moore at the end of July this year, recommends that the bounty be extended in line with the ALP’s policy position on the issue.
  • Future in steel looks bright
    STEEL shipbuilding is experiencing a revival on the nation’s most concentrated shipbuilding strip at Henderson as various builders win contracts to build steel fishing trawlers, tugs and steel-hulled passenger ferries.
    Western Australian Commerce and Trade Minister Hendy Cowan said a recent industry strategy launched by the Department of Commerce and Trade showed that many of Australia’s tugs and fishing trawlers were reaching the end of their lifespan and could be replaced.
    The industry also had great potential to expand its role in repairing and refitting, both for the navy and for vessels servicing offshore oil and gas development.
    He said new 49-metre steel-hulled vehicle passenger ferry built by Tenix Shipbuilding for Kangaroo Island-Sealink pointed to an important future role for steel vessel construction as part of WA’s world-class shipbuilding industry.
  • Adsteam - looking for growth by acquisition
    Adsteam Marine Limited has completed its first year of operation as a listed company -- recording revenue and profit increases.
    Earnings before tax and abnormals were $27.5 million, an increase of 11.3 per cent, compared to $24.7 million in the previous year. The higher EBIT was in excess of the $26.8 million forecast in the company’s prospectus.
    Adsteam’s managing director David Ryan said the further improvement in the full year was pleasing considering the uncertain environment created during the second half by the Australian waterfront unrest and the financial problems in Asian countries.
    He said revenue and earnings growth throughout the year was helped by the acquisitions of Barbican Marine on 1 July last year and Burns Philp Shipping Agencies in early February.

  • Shippers are moving goods earlier and perhaps causing an earlier peak freight season than in the past, top trucking executives say. The situation is particularly acute on the West Coast. Imports from Asia are up, trucks have become a hot commodity and some carriers are able to capture premium rates as shippers fear a capacity crunch. Normally September and October are the biggest months for most truckload and LTL carriers. But this year the peak season has moved up a month or two in some lanes.
  • The General Accounting Office is delving into the touchy subject of captive rail shippers and rates. After hearing from a number of shippers who receive service from only one rail line, Congress asked the GAO to look into the situation. The report, due in February, actually will cover two issues: railroad rates and service, and the effectiveness of the Surface Transportation Board. A questionnaire has been sent out to as many as 2,000 shippers and all replies will be treated confidentially, the GAO said.
  • Marty Lawson of Harley-Davidson Transportation Co. is this year's grand champion at the annual ATA National Truck Driving Championship. Besides honoring the nation's top drivers, trucking executives and the lobbyists took time to listen to some of the drivers' insights into current problems on the highways. It's another way savvy modern-day transportation companies are trying to involve their drivers more and prepare for an expected onslaught of freight in the next several years.
  • Southern Air Transport is involved in an interesting shell game of "Guess Our Merger Partner." On the same day the company announced its planned sale to Fine Air Services had fallen through, SAT said it would become part of Kitty Hawk Inc. Kitty Hawk, which made its first major airline buy of American International Airways one year ago, has jumped back into the acquisition game in the hopes of beefing up its widebody freighter wetlease service. Kitty Hawk says it is just buying the plum pieces of the debt-ridden airline and got it at a good price.
  • Union Pacific Railroad has asked that its Tennessee Pass route through Colorado be taken off its abandonment list to give it the option of reopening it in the future to alleviate capacity restraints. But the future may be sooner rather than later, as industry insiders indicate that the railroad may be on the verge of a new contract with Geneva Steel, moving steel slabs north to Utah and finished steel south to Mexico. Coal shippers also applaud the move, which could mean opening a much needed coal route to and from electric utilities.
  • Maersk and Sea-Land are taking a new approach to deciding which East Coast port best suits their needs for the next generation of huge containerships. North American ports have long known they need to get serious about handling megaships in the next decade, but the Maersk/Sea-Land double team may get some ports to start making changes. Others, like the port of Philadelphia, know they don't have the space or the resources to build a "Disneyland" for containerships, so they bid on a small targeted piece of business.
  • Produce distribution in Mexico is undergoing a major structural change as supermarket chains take a bite out of the market share of Mexico's traditional, small produce shops and stalls. Supermarket growth in Mexico is exploding, reports the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The number of such stores has grown from fewer than 700 in 1993 to 3,850 by 1997 with new stores opening each week. At the same time, convenience stores featuring fresh produce also are growing. These two events are affecting how produce moves from the farm to the consumer as food retailers begin to force changes in the country's distribution system.
  • Most transportation companies believe they will be ready for the millennium bug, according to a recent survey by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP. An informal survey of several transportation companies by Traffic World appeared to back up KPMG's results. Companies polled by Traffic World were on their way to achieving compliance, with staff dedicated to solving the issue. Most had hired outside consultants to help achieve readiness and were planning or had performed audits of their Y2K plans. Transportation companies, overall, appear to be in the middle of the pack for achieving compliance, said KPMG analyst Jay Hamilton.
  • Shipping lines may take cargo to pay off third party debts. At least that is what one freight forwarding company found after it had discovered that its freight, turned over to a consolidator, was going to be sold on the open market by Maersk lines to try and recover money owed to the shipping line by the consolidator. The Federal Maritime Commission says it is hearing these sorts of complaints more frequently and often intercedes to help resolve disputes.
