  • Le désenclavement des terminaux à containers de la Rive gauche impliquerait un tunnel ferroviaire au Liefkenshoek
    Théoriquement, c'est vers la fin de 2001 qu'une première section du 3e terminal à containers à marée, implanté en bordure de la future darse au sud du village de Doel, sera opérationnelle. Dès 2002, plusieurs centaines de milliers de containers y seront manutentionnés dans le cadre des trafics propres à l'armement MSC, qui devraient atteindre à cette époque un million de TEU. En considérant qu'une partie de ce trafic maritime est destiné ou est en provenance des Pays-Bas, d'Allemagne, de Suisse et d'autres régions de l'Est, se pose la question de la desserte ferroviaire de l'ensemble des terminaux qui borderont ladite darse. Il s'agit d'un sujet de première préoccupation au sein de la SNCB
  • Louis Dreyfus Citrus construit un terminal pour jus de fruits concentrés à Gand
    Le groupe Louis Dreyfus Citrus, troisième producteur de jus d'orange au monde, a décidé de construire son propre terminal dans le port de Gand, par où transite déjà une partie de ses concentrés de jus d'orange brésilien destinés au marché européen. Selon des informations confirmées par des sources portuaires locales, l'investissement se monterait à quelque 800 millions de BEF (20 mio. d'EUR) et la nouvelle installation devrait être opérationnelle en novembre prochain. A terme, quelque 200.000 tonnes de concentrés du groupe Dreyfus devraient passer par le port flamand. Avec la venue de LD Citrus, Gand confirme sa position de premier rang parmi les ports européens pour les trafics de jus de fruit et compense le retour de Tropicana vers Zeebrugge.
  • La Bifa négocie à nouveau avec le Clecat
    Trois années après que l'organisation britannique des expéditeurs Bifa (British International Freight Association) a quitté le comité de liaison entre le secteur européen de l'expédition et les institutions européennes du Clecat, il semblerait qu'il y ait à nouveau des efforts de rapprochement, annonce le quotidien Lloyd's List. C'est la stratégie présentée par le nouveau président de la Bifa, Colin Beaumont, lors de la dernière réunion annuelle de l'association. Il y a ajouté que la restructuration de la gestion de l'organisation devrait permettre de s'adapter davantage à l'environnement changeant. De nouveaux accords de coopération devraient permettre d'améliorer la compétitivité.
  • Fernand Huts : "J'ai un contrat de concession qui prévoit les trafics ro/ro..."
    "Nous n'avons pas approché Cobelfret, mais c'est l'inverse, car las d'attendre de la place en suffisance pour leur trafic. Ce transfert de services ferry crée la polémique alors qu'il n'y a aucun problème. Notre concession pour le FCT, signée par la MBZ, stipule clairement que cette dernière s'engage à construire un quai de retour pour trafic roulier et qu'à ses frais, elle implantera le long de notre grand quai une plate-forme ro/ro, ceci sans qu'il soit précisé de délai quant à la construction." C'est ce qu'a déclaré Fernand Huts, le patron du groupe Katoen Natie/Seaport/FCT, lors d'une conférence de presse donnée hier après midi.

  • Asia To Europe Shipping Rates Could Pick Up

  • Possible Strike Has Shippers Looking Skyward
    The possibility of the first dockworkers strike on the U.S. West Coast in 28 years has shippers looking to air cargo as a back-up.
