Global market review - lower crudes and mixed bunker prices A new OPEC meeting is set for the end of November in Vienna. After a week of falling crude prices, the need for new rounds of production cuts will definitely be on the agenda, but there are so far no firms signs that cuts will be agreed. Shell Marine Products to Fujairah in November Shell Marine product is set to expand its global fuels supply service by adding the Fujairah offshore sector to its network. Shell's involvement in Fujairah is at present limited to gasoil activities, but as from November 15th 1998 the company will be offering fuel oil as well. Brazil's oil industry firmly set on route to privatisation Petrobras is one of the 20 largest oil groups in the world, and Brazil's largest company in terms of sales. Earlier this autumn, Brazil ended Petrobras' half century long monopoly on oil exploration and production, another step in the direction of opening up to foreign competition. Nigerian fuel crisis felt in the marine sector Nigeria is suffering from a domestic fuel crisis, as 3 of the country's 4 refineries are not working. With the Warri refinery and oil depot also reported to be closed, the fuel shortage which is troubling the entire country could get worse. New bunker supply service offshore Fujairah ready for launch Starting on October 20th, Piraeus based International Energy Services S.A. (IES) will be able to quote for deliveries offshore Fujairah. IES, an independent trader, is the exclusive sale and purchase agent for Seamark Trading L.L.C. (Seamark), the UAE based company that holds the bunker licence.

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is ready to explore the next frontier of supply-chain management for retailers: in-store logistics. With 80 percent of its total cost tied up inside its stores rather than in the physical flow of inventory, the retailer wants to move product directly from the back of a truck to the selling floor. Wal-Mart expects vendors to package product so that it needs no handling from store staff. That means more specialty packaging like Wal-Mart's PDQ or "pretty darn quick" packs. These are self-contained displays that are self-dispensing and clearly labeled with brand name and product information. "We see store handling as the enemy of inventory," said Tom Burgmeier, a supply chain manager for Wal-Mart. He is the voice of shippers. He wields power on Capitol Hill and is adamant that rail reform is needed. He questions the purpose of the Surface Transportation Board. He is winning big praise for his role in what led to the passage of long-awaited ocean shipping reform. He is Ed Emmett, president of the National Industrial Transportation League, and he is tirelessly trying to boost shippers' position in Washington. Neptune Orient Lines is gearing up to sell the stacktrain services arm of APL, according to reliable sources. The sale, with an estimated value of up to $600 million, would include both international and domestic intermodal business. Sources speculate the property is most valuable to rail carriers Norfolk Southern or Union Pacific Railroad, which already move significant amounts of freight with the steamship line. However, there may be a catch: a controversy over the assignability of the rail contracts already in place could be a deal-breaker to potential players. Three well-managed trucking companies reported strong third-quarter earnings. M.S. Carriers and USA Truck, two top-flight truckload carriers, had record quarterly earnings and revenue. American Freightways, a regional and interregional LTL carrier, reported a 3.7 percent rise in net income but said that overall market conditions had been "unkind" to the LTL sector. Polar Air Cargo has a tough row to hoe. The airline is losing money and a lot of it. Just in the first six months of the year, the all-cargo carrier is down $40 million. Its minority owner, GE Commercial Aviation Services, is considering selling off its 49 percent share in the company - if it can find a buyer. Asia, once Polar's mainstay, continues to plague the airline with financial problems. Considering all of that, how and where does Polar fit in the air freight landscape? The wrath of Hurricane Georges continues. The Port of New Orleans was especially hard hit, closing its Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet to most deep-draft container traffic until the Army Corps of Engineers can dredge the mounds of sediment Georges left in his path. Big ocean-going vessels won't be able to use the connection between the river and the Gulf of Mexico for at least four months. Although diversions to other ports are inevitable, New Orleans is trying to hang on to the 100 or so ships that were scheduled to dock over the next several months. Logistics executives from major retailers talked about the challenges facing their companies at the Council of Logistics Management's annual conference in Anaheim, Calif. Retail companies are relying on logistics to help them keep up with the demands of global distribution, labor issues and of course, technology. When a retailer starts taking orders over the Internet, observed John J. Ling of Crate & Barrel, you instantly become an international company - whether you want to be or not. The partnership between i2 and IMI could change the face of the enterprise resource planning software market, industry experts are saying. The initiative between the companies, one of which focuses on supply-chain planning and the other on actually moving whatever is in the supply chain, could provide shippers with a new software solution. Times are a-changing for Canadian trucking companies. The Canadian Trucking Alliance, an off-shoot of the reshaped Canadian Trucking Association, is trying to boost the trucking industry's image in the eyes of the government and the country's citizens. "People don't seem to appreciate the importance of transportation," said David Bradley, the alliance's director. "It shows how much work we have to do." On the agenda, Bradley would like to see the allowance of longer trucks and a rewards programs for drivers and companies that make investments in safety.
