  • Démarrage spectaculaire pour Anvers et Zeebrugge en 98
    Tout semble indiquer que les ports d'Anvers et de Zeebrugge effectuent un excellent démarrage en 1998, car ils affichent des progressions assez spectaculaires pour le mois de janvier. Il importe toutefois de relativer quelque peu les données, étant donné que janvier 97 était assez faible. Néanmoins, les résultats sont là: Anvers a traité 1,43 mio. de t en plus à la fin janvier, soit une hausse de 16,68%,tandis que pour Zeebrugge, la progression serait de l'ordre de 22%. Seul le port de Gand affiche un certain recul qui n'est pas encore précisé.

Cette cellule aspire à une optimalisation de la totalité du coût logistique, à savoir le transport, le chargement, le déchargement, l'entreposage, le financement des stocks , l'administration, l'impact sur l'environnement etc. Il est évident qu'il en résulte une redéfinition des activités de transport.

Il semble que l'Autriche menacerait de faire de ce montant un point de rupture. Le gouvernement de Vienne, qui s'oppose au péage suisse, est en conflit avec la Commission au sujet du péage dans le col du Brenner.

  • Talks continue as detail sought
    PATRICK and the Maritime Union of Australia will be meeting again today to discuss union claims for enterprise agreements at the company’s facilities around the country.
    Although union members can take protected industrial action during a bargaining period, they have to give the company 72 hours notice and no such notice was given yesterday.
    Assistant national secretary of the MUA Vic Slater said the talks were restricted to enterprise bargaining.
  • Twist in SPS case
    THE South Pacific Shipping liquidation took a new twist yesterday when Patrick applied to the Federal Court to shift one of the company’s vessels, the Rangitata, from No. 3 to No. 5 Webb Dock.

  • Freight hubs bring problems: Maunsells

    LOCAL and regional councils which are majority owners of New Zealand’s 12 ports have enjoyed good returns on their investments but it is only a matter of time before some sell their shareholdings, according to Port of Tauranga chief executive officer Jon Mayson.
    He said the growing impetus for structural change within the broader port sector would have repercussions for the Tauranga port company.
  • MSC lashes out at far east competitors
    THE MEDITERRANEAN Shipping Company yesterday lashed out at conference carriers in the Far East which it accused of spreading false rumors about the impending demise of the company’s service between Australia and Asia.
