  • La route du Canada mise à l'heure d'une"augmentation" tarifaire pour déséquilibre WB
    Il fallait s'y attendre, puisque le trafic entre l'Europe du Nord et le Canada/Montréal est généralement à la traîne de ce qui se passe sur l'Atlantique Nord, et cela n'a guère tardé: les Continental Canadian westbound freight conference et Canadian North Atlantic westbound freight conference, annoncent à leur tour une augmentation de 200 dollars par 20' et 250 dollars par 40', ceci pour couvrir les surcoûts qu'entraînent le déséquilibre en matière d'équipements, suite à la forte progression des volumes à destination du Canada. Ladite augmentation interviendra le 1er octobre prochain. En fait, le problème est exactement le même que celui qui se pose aux armements opérant sur l'AN. Le déséquilibre sur Halifax et Montréal est tout aussi important.

  • Degussa-Hüls investit 5,7 mia. de BEF dans l'extension de sa capacité à Anvers
    Le géant chimique allemand Degussa-Hülls va investir 500 mio. de USD dans l'augmentation la capacité des silanes organiques dans diverses filiales.
