    La vente de la Compagnie d’Affrètement & Transport (CAT, siège à Paris/Boulogne-Billancourt) vient d’être officiellement conclue hier mardi. Cette filiale du groupe Renault passe à 100% sous le contrôle du consortium international Global Automotive Logistics (GAL), dont le nom commercial est Albateam. Son capital est réparti comme suit: 40% Autologic (Grande-Bretagne); 20% TNT (Pays-Bas); 20% Wallenius-Wilhemsen (Suède) et 20% Renault (France). Le montant de la transaction s’élève à 467,4 millions d’EUR (3,06 milliards de FRF). Albateam finance cet achat à raison de 40% sur fonds propres et de 60% via un prêt obtenu de la CIBC (Commercial International Bank of Canada).
  • Les pilotes de l’Escaut rejettent la suppression partielle du pilotage obligatoire
    L’association professionnelle des pilotes maritimes BVL (Beroepsvereniging van Loodsen) rejette catégoriquement la proposition du gouvernement flamand visant à exempter du pilotage obligatoire les navires de mer ne dépassant pas une certaine taille. Dans une première phase, les unités maritimes d’une longueur inférieure à 80 mètres seraient exemptées du pilotage obligatoire. Dans une deuxième phase, la longueur des navires exemptés serait portée à 90 mètres. Les pilotes estiment que cette mesure compromettra la sécurité de la navigation sur l’Escaut. Ils regrettent en outre qu’ils n’ont pas été consultés en la matière.
