Mærsk Sealand retarde la réception des PC de 8.800 TEU A la veille de la publication du rapport financier semestriel, un groupe d’analystes danois considère que le groupe A.P. Moeller a vu son revenu chuter de 54.% à la fin juin, ceci essentiellement à cause de la faiblesse du marché maritime. Pour l’ensemble de l’exercice 2002 Moeller prévoit un bénéfice avant gains sur ventes et éléments spéciaux d’environ 6 mia. de couronnes contre 9,9 mia. en 2001. Les revenus générés par les activités pétrolières et gazières ont donné de meilleurs résultats que prévu, grâce à une haute tenue des prix du pétrole.
DFDS réduit ses pertes sur EuroBridge “EuroBridge est parvenu à stabiliser ses prestations au second trimestre.” C’est ce qu’écrit le groupe DFDS dans son rapport semestriel concernant le service roro entre Gand et Göteborg, qui avait sombré dans les chiffres rouges depuis un certain temps déjà. “Nous ne réalisons toujours pas de bénéfice sur cette route, mais nous sommes parvenus à réduire nos pertes”, nous a déclaré le presiding director Ole Frie. Cette amélioration relative - “stabilisation à un niveau de perte moins important”, dixit Frie - est principalement due aux efforts consentis par toutes les parties concernées en vue de réduire les coûts.
HNN: les synergies avec PSA Corp commencent à se développer L’entreprise de manutention Hesse Noord Natie fait désormais partie intégrante de la scène maritime et portuaire anversoise. Certes, il s’agit d’une filiale à 80% du groupe PSA Corp de Singapour, mais force est de constater que le management est resté local. Il n’y a en fait que six représentants de PSA installés au QG anversois de l’entreprise, ceci pour tirer le maximum de possibilités des synergies susceptibles d’être développées entre Anvers et Singapour. Cette présence est des plus normales quand on tient compte de l’importance de l’investissement réalisé.
