Banacol transférerait définitivement son trafic d'Anvers à Zeebrugge Le groupe Banacol dirige depuis quelques semaines ses navires reefer vers les installations spécialisées de la BNFW (Belgian New Fruit Wharf) dans l'arrière-port de Zeebrugge, où ils déchargent des cargaisons de bananes en provenance du Costa Rica et de Colombie. Les raisons de ce transfert résultent de la conjugaison de plusieurs facteurs, qui pourraient d'ailleurs inciter l'entreprise à maintenir définitivement ce trafic dans le port côtier belge dès le début de l'année prochaine. Précisons qu'il s'agit d'un trafic annuel d'environ 160.000 t de bananes. Changshu cherche opérateur pour port et terminal à containers En juillet 1997, un nouveau centre de transbordement maritime était mis en service en bordure du fleuve Yangtze, à Changshu, localité située à 97 km au nord-ouest de Shanghai, outil qui est appelé à aider au développement économique de cette province particulièrement dynamique qu'est Jiangsu. Dans le style qui est celui de la Chine aujourd'hui, ce projet prend d'emblée d'énormes proportions. Dès l'arrivée on est confronté à un immense bâtiment de plusieurs dizaines d'étages qui fait office de QG de l'administration portuaire, construction pratiquement vide pour l'instant, qui borde une route de deux kilomètres traversant des terrains encore déserts, mais qui devront accueillir des activités industrielles, d'entreposage et autres fonctions qui gravitent autour de la marchandise. Cette route mène à un port constitué de quelques entrepôts, dont celui de Westerlund, et d'un quai sur pilotis de 550 m de long, soit 3 emplacements, que deux passerelles géantes en ciment relient à la terre ferme. Deux portiques à containers de type panamax circulent sur ce quai ainsi qu'une grue mobile. Tel se présente pour le moment le port "polyvalent" de Changshu. Copex Anvers offre un service de groupage sur les Caraïbes Copex Freight Antwerpen a été désigné agent pour la Belgique par l'armement américain NVOCC Tropical Shippings. Cela signifie que dorénavant, Copex pourra offrir un service de groupage de containers hebdomadaire à partir d'Anvers vers une cinquantaine de destination aux Caraïbes, aux Bahamas et en Amérique latine. Les containers seront livrés à Anvers par P&O Nedlloyd, qui a des départs à Rotterdam. La semaine de travail de 48 heures dans le transport routier suscite le scepticisme Divers Etats-membres de l'UE sont sceptiques à l'égard de la proposition de la Commission européenne visant une directive contraignante destinée à réduire la semaine de travail des chauffeurs de poids lourds et d'autobus à 48 heures en moyenne. Si la Commission, qui se réunit aujourd'hui à Strasbourg, approuve la proposition, celle-ci sera soumise aux ministres européens du Transport dans les plus brefs délais.

Sydney shippers celebrate Sofrana's 30th HMAS VAMPIRE at Sydney's Darling Harbour was a fitting location for last week's 30th anniversary celebration for Australian supporters of Sofrana, hosted by the line and its shipping agents, Barwil. The decommissioned 1960s destroyer (now alongside the maritime museum) set the scene for a short address by Sofrana's chief executive Hans Assarsson, describing Sofrana as "a ship braced against the winds of change". Overtonnaging and depressed rates in the Pacific Islands routes had caused Sofrana to brace by concentrating its shipping operation into three key services. Close Encounter of the green kind THE P&O Nedlloyd containership Encounter Bay, now on her final voyage to Australia, was yesterday prevented from leaving Barcelona by Greenpeace activists. The Encounter Bay, which inaugurated containerisation in the Europe-Australia trade and one of the first deep-sea containerships in the world, is to be scrapped after her present voyage. The Greenpeace protesters claimed the vessel will be "broken up manually in India," adding that it was "full of dangerous substances, including asbestos". Scott Corp now 'more focused' Mount Gambier-based national transport group Scott Corporation is now a leaner and more focused group better equipped to respond to the constant challenges facing the transport industry, according to the company's chairman Alan Scott. Mr Scott told the group's annual general meeting in Mount Gambier yesterday that the company recorded an unaudited profit after tax of $1.14 million for the four months to October 1998 which was 12.9 per cent higher than the previous year. Revenue decreased 5.4 per cent to $82.5 million. Mayne's logistics future 'rosy' Mayne Nickless chairman Mark Raynor yesterday forecast a rosy future for the Australian logistics business within the group's overall asset base, despite recent strong industry speculation that the company could soon move to sell off its logistics assets. Mr Raynor told the transport and healthcare group's annual general meeting in Melbourne that Mayne Nickless had completed its withdrawal from the under-performing and loss-making transport assets which burdened the group four years ago. "We are now able to focus on the key performance drivers of the continuing businesses and concentrate on improving performance in each of them, with the overall objective of increasing shareholder value," he said. MBV to provide less services from inside THE latest annual report of the Marine Board of Victoria shows a loss of $362,284 for the financial year. The MBV recorded a profit of $395,628 profit the previous financial year. The board attributes the majority of the loss to an abnormal item. The report said: "In accordance with government policy, motor vehicles owned by the board were sold to the Commonwealth Bank in July 1997. These vehicles have been leased back to the board from the Department of Treasury and Finance in July 1997 under an operating lease." The report said in future, where appropriate, the board would rely more on external service providers.
