  • Anvers devra prendre patience pour la deuxième phase de l'approfondissement de l'Escaut
    La direction de l'entreprise portuaire communale autonome anversoise a donc entamé les démarches nécessaires tant auprès des Néerlandais que des instances gouvernementales flamandes en vue d'obtenir les autorisations nécessaires pour entamer la seconde phase de l'approfondissement de l'Escaut. Cette démarche est des plus logique, étant donné que la première phase, dont les résultats dépassent les espérances, sera terminée dans le courant du début de l'année prochaine. Les équipements étant sur place, il y aurait possibilité de gagner du temps.

Il s'agira donc d'un terminal entièrement dédié à Mærsk qui l'exploitera selon ses propres concepts et avec ses propres équipements.
  • L'ECSA enregistre des succès sur le plan social

Il s'agit d'un accord unique en son genre, le secteur maritime étant le premier mode de transport à conclure un tel accord au niveau européen. Les contacts entre l'association européenne d'armateurs et les syndicats sont également constructifs au niveau de la formation et du recyclage des navigants en Europe. Les résultats d'une étude commune doivent en outre démontrer quelles mesures sont nécessaires pour assurer le maintien du savoir-faire maritime en Europe.

  • P&OP talks resume tomorrow
    The Maritime Union of Australia is tomorrow expected to resume discussions with P&O Ports, talks which are expected to be crucial for the company's waterfront reform agenda.
    The stevedore is expected to decide soon whether to proceed with its legal action against the union, or drop the action and enter into full scale discussions.
    The MUA has consistently said that it cannot concentrate on reform issues, while, at the same time, legal cases are pending against it.
    P&O is facing increasing pressure from competitor Patrick which now claims massive productivity increases since the introduction of its new enterprise agreement earlier this month (see separate report elsewhere in today's issue).
    Industry sources believe that Saturday's federal election may also play a part in how the matter unfolds.
  • Patrick claims productivity leap
    Patrick has claimed significant productivity increases during the first week of its new enterprise agreements with crane movements an hour increasing by almost 33 per cent in one port.
    Another indicator, which measures moves per man per shift, has gone up by as much as 140 per cent at another terminal.
    The sharp increase in productivity, despite almost a 50 per cent reduction in the workforce and an alleged lack of enthusiasm, has led to claims that the company is deliberately driving up its productivity claims.
    According to Patrick's figures, crane movements an hour during the week 14 to 21 September, had gone up in Brisbane by 32.8 per cent (16.2 crane movements an hour) as compared with the same period a year ago.
  • Victoria confronts gas drought
    The Victorian government announced yesterday it will establish a board of inquiry to investigate the cause of Friday's explosions and fires at Esso's Longford plant. It will be "over arching", incorporating inquiries already underway by the state coroner, WorkCover Authority, Esso, the Country Fire Authority, and the Victoria Police Arson Squad.
    At a press conference yesterday, Premier Jeff Kennett said: "We should prepare for there being a second week of no gas supply."
    He said it would take several days, probably a week, to secure the pipes and cables damaged in the explosion and a new pipeline would have to be built from the second and third plants to the main outgoing line.
    Esso would have to put a pump on the new pipeline to increase the capacity of plants two and three and that was likely to take another week, Mr Kennett said.
  • Shock! MUA attacks government
    The Maritime Union of Australia has accused the federal government of "conspiring" to destroy what's left of the country's merchant fleet.
    At a function to commemorate World Maritime Day, MUA national secretary John Coombs said Canberra's policy was "if you can't beat them, join them".
    "Rather than fighting to protect seafarers in our waters, this government is planning to have third world seafarers employed on our ships," Mr Coombs said.
    "Rather than funding Australian shipping, they are selling it off and moving to flag it out.
    "I spoke earlier of conspiracy... the secret government war plan leaked in July this year actually documents how the sale of our national line or the axing of cabotage could be used to trigger a strike and sack the unionised port workforce -- for it is the port workers who help police the abuse of seafarers on board ships of shame."
