Major Project for IPSEN LOGISTICS in Algiers There are strict regulations in the port of Algiers. Breakbulk cargo may not be unloaded – unless a company is able to obtain a special permit.
The local IPSEN LOGISTICS team knows exactly the procedure and what has to be done to ensure that the vessel/cargo must not be diverted to another port - no small matter in view of a two-year logistics contract for a refinery renovation and expansion project. The permit is issued, but there is a restraint: The load has to be transferred immediately, with no form of intermediate storage in the port allowed. The equipment in this contract comes from all over the world, mainly on chartered ships. About 60 % of the cargo is breakbulk cargo (no extraordinary dimensions), the remaining 40 % are heavy lift and oversized cargo. For every incoming vessel, there must be a sufficient number of trucks waiting on the quay in order to ensure that the cargo can be loaded directly onto the vehicles without delay. This means that on any one day a total of up to 40 trailers must be brought in. At night, the cargo is moved in convoy to the customs warehouse, under customs seal and with an escort formed by the police and customs authorities. Nighttime is the only possible time to move cargo out of the port of Algiers, as there is a general ban on trucks moving in the city during the day. The trucks are unloaded immediately afterwards – around the clock. Enough time is consumed already by the cumbersome customs formalities which do not allow clearance before transferring the load. IPSEN LOGISTICS Algeria is one of the few non-Algerian firms that has been issued with an official customs licence. This is a huge advantage, especially for large projects. After the customs duties have been successfully paid, the delivery to the construction site is made. This leg of the route, too, is accompanied by the police. In the past 12 months 30 charter ships carrying a total of 130.000 freight tons have been processed in this manner. Pieces with lengths up to 28 m, widths up to 5.5 m, heights up to 5.68 m and single weights up to 132 t have been handled. Not a single one of the valuable construction parts suffered any damage – a nice success. This new project is one of many – over the last ten years IPSEN LOGISTICS Algeria handled about 50 such undertakings, mainly for the oil and gas industry in the south of the country and essential country-wide infrastructure development projects. source: ipsenlogistics.com

Volga-Dnepr flies mobile power plant into Kaliningrad to ensure reliability of electricity supplies
An 80-ton mobile gas turbine power plant has been transported from Abakan to Kaliningrad, Russia, by Volga-Dnepr Airlines. The outsize cargo, carried onboard one of the airline’s AN-124-100 freighters, measured 20 metres in length and more than four metres in height and width. To load the plant, Volga-Dnepr’s experts used a ramp extension so the trailer carrying the gas turbine could be reversed into the freighter aircraft under its own power. This challenging process was managed and closely controlled by the technical crew of the aircraft.
Under the contract, all of the necessary permissions had to be organised to land the ‘Ruslan’ freighter at Khrabrovo Kaliningrad airport. This was the first AN-124-100 flight Volga-Dnepr has operated to Khrabrovo. The Russian forwarding company Instar Logistics contracted the delivery with Volga-Dnepr on behalf of the JSC Mobile GTES, which is working on the project to modernise Kaliningrad’s energy system. The gas turbine power plant is one of the first being installed in the region and can be used as an auxiliary supply source in emergency situations. The government project was launched after 645,000 residents in 12 districts of Kaliningrad lost their electricity supplies in August. source: volga-dnepr.com

GAC rig move brings Hercules Triumph from Sri Lanka to India four days of servicing at Trincomalee, the Hercules GAC operation to off-land, float and transport After Triumph was then towed by two tugs, the SCI URJA and 14268 MT-tonne rig to Kakinada for drilling operations
Sri Lanka,– GAC Sri Lanka has completed the movement of offshore drilling rig Hercules Triumph from the port of Trincomalee to India. The rig, owned by Hercules Offshore, Inc., USA, is now safely anchored at Kakinada, ready to start drilling operations for CAIRN Energy at the RAVVA offshore oil field. GAC Sri Lanka, part of global shipping, logistics and marine services provider GAC Group, chartered three anchor-handling tug boats - SCI URJA, SCI Ahimsa and Mahaweli - to off-land the Hercules Triumph from heavy-lift vessel Target at Trincomalee Anchorage and worked in close liaison with the Harbour Master and port officials throughout the complex operation. GAC also provided a range of port services including using its own fleet of supply boats for the transfer of crew and other personnel to and from the rig. Further, GAC Sri Lanka supplied provisions, stores, fresh water and bunker fuels to the rig and anchor-handling tugs. As part of its task to oversee the entire project, GAC Sri Lanka was also responsible for domestic air transfers of Hercules Offshore officials to and from the site.
the SCI Ahimsa, over 700 NM miles to Kakinada, arriving 8 days later. Mr. Preethilal Fernando, Director and CEO of GAC Sri Lanka, says: “GAC has long been a pioneering company in the oil and gas support services industry and this is another milestone in rig operations in Sri Lanka. The Port of Trincomalee is perfectly suited to this type of operation as it can accommodate vessels with a very deep draft, which is critical for off-landing and floating of rigs. “This was a complex operation and we have worked very closely with Hercules Offshore throughout the process, which has been a great success. We are very proud that Hercules Offshore entrusted GAC with the movement of the Hercules Triumph, which is now in location in the Indian Ocean and ready for operations again.” As one of the world’s leading shipping, logistics and marine services providers, GAC Group has a strong presence across the oil & gas sectors worldwide, providing a wide range of offshore support services for exploration, construction and production through to decommissioning of rigs, as well as a range of support services including ship supply, bunkering and crew travel services. source: gac.com

Mv Daniella transports 4 fully mounted mobile cranes The Mv Daniella has recently undertaken the
transportation of, in total, 4 cranes. Operations commenced in Rostock, Germany with the loading of three Liebherr LHM 550 cranes, each weighing 440t. From there the Daniella sailed to Antwerp, Belgium, where one of the cranes was exchanged for a LHM 500, weighing 398t. From there she set sail for Equatorial Guinea, where the cranes were discharged in the ports of Batam and Malabo. The Daniella was selected for the operation due to her versatility and cost efficiency. The cranes, each with a footprint of approximately 22m had to be placed on-board a single vessel 98m LOA, with deck space of 71m. Each of the cranes was lifted on-board using the Daniella’s dual mast cranes and then driven into stowage position once on deck. The challenge was to position the cranes in such a way that the jibs, each of which was 58m in length, did not come into contact with each other. To prepare for this

Coordinadora Move Huge 918Mt Reactor
Coordinadora Internacional’s have just
completed the transport of a 918 Mt cracking reactor from Japan to Turkey. Arancha Ruiz from Coordinadora Internacional explains; “Within the framework of the Tüpras Project, COORDINADORA carried out the transport of a 918 Mt cracking reactor of 34.89 x 7.95 x 8.55 m from Muroran (Japan) to the Tüpras Refinery in Izmit (Turkey) and it was the heaviest item ever handled. Due to its outstanding weight, the port of destination had to be checked to ensure that the terminal was strong enough to bear such a load on it. The unit was loaded in Japan together with another 7 large reactors with weights ranging from 500 to 700 Mt. Since the road transportation from the port of Derince to the jobsite was absolutely unfeasible, a local flat pontoon was chartered to bridge the gap through a Ro/Ro operation. The destination quay was damaged by the famous earthquake that happened in Turkey some years ago and so it had to be reinforced in accordance with COORDINADORA’s calculations. Additionally, due to the same reasons, it was not possible to touch the first 5 meters from the quay edge, so our own Engineering Department designed and built a special Ro/Ro steel ramp of 12 m length and more than 1.000 Mt bearing capacity. The cargo was loaded directly from vessel onto a 20 double axles SPMT platform. Then, this vehicle was loaded on the barge and the cargo was properly lashed. All the complicated ballasting procedure was calculated and managed on site by COORDINADORA. Given that the cargo had to be stored onto stools and the saddles provided by vendor that were not wide enough for that purpose, special transportation beams were also designed by our own engineers.” source: coordinadora.eu , projectcargonetwork.com

The decline in cargo throughput last month was mainly attributed to a 3% year-on-year drop in imports. Exports recorded a slight decline, while transshipments registered a 1% increase compared to the same month last year.
For the first three quarters of 2013, HKIA handled 44.8 million passengers, 3 million tonnes of cargo and 275,645 flight movements, representing year-on-year increases of 6%, 1.7% and 5.6% respectively.

PORT & TERMINALS Ministers enter talks to safeguard Glasgow Prestwick Airport Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced the Scottish Government is
entering into talks to safeguard around 1,400 jobs by bringing Prestwick Airport into public ownership. Prestwick Airport has been on the market since March 2012. The Scottish Government, in partnership with Scottish Enterprise and South Ayrshire Council, has been working with current owners Infratil to help find a private buyer. Despite those efforts and interest from potential investors, the process has now reached a point where it’s clear that no private buyer will be able to take the purchase forward in an acceptable timescale to the current owner. Ms Sturgeon said: “Prestwick Airport’s importance to the local Ayrshire and wider Scottish economy cannot be overstated – and it is vital that all efforts are made to keep the airport open. “Around 300 people depend directly on the airport for employment and, in total, there are around 1,400 people whose jobs depend on or are associated with the airport. Unemployment in Ayrshire is already above the Scottish average and the loss of Prestwick Airport would exacerbate this situation. “Taking account of the aerospace cluster at Prestwick, there are a total of 3,200 jobs directly or indirectly associated with the airport. Whilst the aerospace jobs are not directly dependent on the airport, it acts as an anchor for these businesses. It is undoubtedly the case that this important part of the Ayrshire economy would be less secure in the future without the continued operation of Prestwick Airport. “Prestwick also has important resilience capabilities that provide alternative options to Glasgow and Edinburgh in the event of severe weather conditions. “Today, I am announcing that the Scottish Government has advised the current owners Infratil of our intention to commence a process towards acquisition of Prestwick Airport. “Over the next few weeks we will focus on due diligence, legal and commercial issues around public ownership and the development of a business plan that will allow Prestwick to thrive once again. I want to stress to staff and passengers booked to fly from Prestwick that in the meantime it is business as usual at the airport. The airport is, and will continue to be, open for business. “Once a transaction has been completed, I will make a further statement to Parliament. “With perseverance, patience and innovative thinking Prestwick can have a positive future as part of the wider Scottish aviation industry.” Ministers are entering into negotiations with Infratil over the potential acquisition of Prestwick Aviation Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries, subject to the completion of due diligence and the appropriate legal processes. During that process, Infratil would continue to operate the airport as a going concern to maintain its assets and keep it open for business. Leader of South Ayrshire Council, Councillor Bill McIntosh said: “South Ayrshire Council warmly welcomes the announcement today from the Deputy First Minister. “Prestwick Airport and the engineering jobs that it supports are hugely important for Ayrshire and for Scotland as a whole. “We look forward to working closely with the Scottish Government to ensure a long- term future for Prestwick Airport that builds on the substantial contribution it already makes to the Scottish economy.” Marko Bogoievski, Chief Executive Officer at Infratil said: “In March 2012 Infratil announced its intention to sell its two UK airports, Glasgow Prestwick Airport and Manston Kent Airport as part of a process to refocus its investment profile. “Recognising the importance of the airports to their local communities, Infratil’s preference has been to secure a new owner with the capacity to support their future success. “We believe that a Scottish Government acquisition of Glasgow Prestwick Airport achieves that objective and will work proactively with the Scottish Government over the next six weeks towards achieving completion of a transaction.” Adrian Gillespie, managing director of operations at Scottish Enterprise said: “Prestwick Airport is a vital part of both the local economy in Ayrshire and the wider Scottish economy, supporting a high number of jobs and businesses. “We are committed to working closely with our partners to achieve a sustainable future for both the airport and all it delivers for our economy and our communities.” source: transportscotland.gov

There is a lot of confidence in the new application, as demonstrated by the large number of Shipping lines that have already joined the platform. InlandLinks enables the Shipping lines to give shippers and freight forwarders more insight into their intermodal services to and from Rotterdam’s hinterland. Hans Smits comments: ‘By strongly investing in the optimisation of the logistical chains, we strengthen our position as the largest port in Europe. Improving efficiency for our clients and the entire chain is therefore an important part of our mission. Moreover,
Shipping lines join the port of Rotterdam’s hinterland platform en masse It is estimated that 25%
(2.5 million TEU) of all containers shipped by road, rail or inland shipping are empty. The ‘transport of air’ is not only expensive and inefficient, it also impacts the environment more than necessary. InlandLinks, the port of Rotterdam’s online intermodal platform, has developed an application to substantially reduce the transport of empty containers. This is a real breakthrough in terms of efficiency and sustainability for the entire logistical chain. This new ‘empty depot tool’ was festively launched at Rotterdam’s Kop van Zuid today. Hans Smits, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority, and all of the Shipping lines involved were present.
good, reliable connections with our hinterland network are a spearhead with which Rotterdam distinguishes itself from other ports. The new application InlandLinks developed innovatively unites these two points.’
Collaboration with market parties The InlandLinks platform, which was formed in 2011, was the first to chart all of the hinterland terminals in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and other European countries based on various criteria. Earlier this year, the service was expanded to include an online intermodal route planner, which website visitors can use to map out the most sustainable and efficient shipping route to and from Rotterdam using inland shipping or rail connections. Donald Baan, project manager at InlandLinks, comments: ‘The new application is the third big step in the on-going optimisation of the entire logistical chain. Empty depot tool The online application, called ‘empty depot tool’, shows, From the very start we listened to the needs of all market parties, from shippers to inland terminals, Shipping lines per connected shipping company, the inland terminals where shippers and logistical service providers can pick and logistical service providers.

Takao Tanaka) has received an order for two automated container cranes for railroad terminal from TraPac, Inc. which is Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd.’s U.S. affiliated company, through MES’s U.S. affiliated company, PACECO Corp.
At the container terminal that TraPac Inc. operates in Port of Los Angeles, is now being constructed for extension and alongside that, the automation of container handling equipments is being carried on as well. The automated container crane that MES has received this time is going to be located at the railroad terminal in the same container terminal. The new crane can load and discharge containers that have been delivered by automated carrier vehicle on the railroad wagon from the quay under the crane. The crane’s loading operation will be carried out automatically from the host system’s commands
and can be remotely controlled by looking at the TV camera monitor if necessary. Ever since the 1990’s, many automated container terminals have been built globally but TraPac in Port of Los Angeles will be the first terminal in the U.S.’ west coast. By deploying this crane; from the quay under the crane to the railroad yard, MES anticipate to make contribution in constructing a consistent automated system.

3.0% growth for port of Antwerp in first 9 months tonnage and in TEU (standard containers: twenty-foot equivalent units). The number of handled containers (TEU) fell by 1.7% and ended up at 6,404,791 TEU. In tonnage there is a decline of 2.8%, totalling 76,508,857 tonnes in the first nine months. The ro/ro volume was also down, decreasing by 5.3% to 3,406,385 tonnes. On the other hand the number of cars handled was up by 5.5%, to 969,105. During the past nine months 26.2% more cars were imported than in the same period last year. Conventional breakbulk also declined, down 6.0% in the first three quarters to 7,685,856 tonnes. Apart from steel, which showed a dip of 9.1% to 4,653,763 tonnes, the other breakbulk categories remained fairly stable in volume. Seagoing ships and prospects
The port of Antwerp handled a freight
volume of 143,015,226 tonnes in the first nine months of this year, 3.0% more than in the same period last year. Liquid bulk once again produced good growth figures, helping to push the overall volume higher. Liquid bulk The volume of liquid bulk handled during the past three quarters rose by 32.0% to 44,472,343 tonnes. Oil derivatives stood at 32,211,312 tonnes by the end of September, representing growth of 36.7%. Chemicals (up 9.2% to 8,467,896 tonnes) and crude oil (up 71.4% to 3,481,679 tonnes) completed the impressive series of results in the liquid bulk segment. Dry bulk The dry bulk volume by contrast was down by 25.6% to 10,941,785 tonnes, due mainly to reduced coal imports. 57.4% less coal was handled in the period from January to September. The main reason for this decrease lay in the rail freight rates to the German hinterland, making the rates offered in Antwerp less competitive than in some neighbouring ports. The Port Authority in collaboration with a number of private-sector players is making strenuous efforts to close this gap. Containers and breakbulk The container segment showed a slight decline, both in 24
During the first nine months 2.4% fewer seagoing ships called at the port of Antwerp than in the same period last year, with the number down to 10,769. On the other hand the total tonnage was up by 3.4% to 246,890,887 GT. These figures reflect the trend for fewer but more heavily laden ships visiting the port. Antwerp once more demonstrated that it has all the capabilities needed to handle even the very largest ships without problem when the 18,000 TEU Mary Maersk berthed here on Saturday 19 October. This vessel, in the class of the largest container carriers in the world, entered the port of Antwerp smoothly without problem on its trial visit. Simulations by the Hydrological Laboratory in Borgerhout had previously demonstrated that such ships are able to call at Antwerp, and the arrival of the Mary Maersk proved this irrefutably. In the meantime the alliance of the three largest container shipping companies in the world, the P3 Network (Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM), has opted favourably for Antwerp. The port has gained a call from the Far East, while the number of calls on the trans-Atlantic route is being maintained. This definite choice in favour of Antwerp is a clear expression of confidence in the advantages offered by the port, and will result in even more calls by vessels of 13,000 TEU and over. source: portofantwerp.com

Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has successfully completed the engineering of boom extensions on two ship-to-shore (STS) cranes operated by Terminales Rio de la Plata (TRP) at the Port of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The project, awarded to Kalmar in January 2013, took just seven months to complete, with both cranes returned to full operation in August, well within the original year-end target. The project is a further demonstration of Kalmar’s ability to undertake highly complex engineering procedure for any brand of STS crane. TRP, a DP World Container Terminal business, currently handles 800,000 TEU annually. It is now gearing up for the arrival of substantially larger container vessels, some with capacities of up to 18,000 TEU. This required the STS crane boom geometry to be adapted and extended from 45 metres to 51 metres. Kalmar provided a turnkey operation, starting with planning of detail engineering to the critical technical specifications. Kalmar’s specialist crane services team in Argentina also coordinated the subcontracting and quality inspections of the entire production and assembly procedures. The process required the decommissioning of cranes in their original location and their transportation to a separate construction site where the trolley and gantry components were removed, allowing the boom to be disassembled.
Eugenio Calcabrini, TRP Engineering Manager, was full of praise for the Kalmar team. “STS boom extensions are complex projects, demanding the highest levels of technical expertise and team work. Kalmar demonstrated their ability to handle such a complex project efficiently. Increasing operational throughput is critical to us. Raising the capacity of existing cranes, together with safely extending their working life, provides an excellent solution and return on the investment. “Being a manufacturer, Kalmar demonstrates an excellent understanding of the critical technical considerations and can therefore deliver a really effective solution in the minimum time frame. We are extremely satisfied with Kalmar’s service,” he added. “This project was very critical for us, and we are happy that we were able to meet our customer’s requirements,” said Marcelo Massa, Managing Director of Cargotec Argentina. “Kalmar’s strategic intent is to become a major global refurbishment and services
provider. Success in this project demonstrates our capability to deliver upgrade, modernisation and refurbishment projects and engineering consultancy for customers now also in Latin America,” he concluded. source: cargotec.com
Extension of the boom was then undertaken at ground level which involved the welding of new interfaces, magnetic particle testing and ultrasonic testing inspections to confirm structural integrity and, finally, the reassembly of all the components before relocating the crane to its original quay position.

yangshan Deepwater Port now accommodates vessels by two-way navigation A press conference was held by Shanghai Municipal Government . Shanghai International Port (Group) Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Maritime Bureau introduced detailed information at the press conference. SIPG Chairman Chen Xuyuan said that, regulatory two-way navigation will shorten vessel waiting time on berth, thus will improve efficiency both for the port and the carriers. The new measurements will benefit all the carriers calling at the Port, as well as all the shipping-related companies in Shanghai. He also introduced new development of Port of Shanghai. This year saw dramatic growth of water-to-water transshipment in Shanghai, accounting for 46% of Shanghai’s total volume. Among which, international transshipment grew by a recording-breaking 35%. In the next steps, SIPG will make full use of the Foreign Trade Zone policies to actively expend business in the fields of shipping finance, cargo consolidation logistics, etc. Shanghai Maritime Bureau Director General Xu Guoyi said that, aside from two-way navigation, the bureau with continue to work with SIPG to have a research on the feasibility of vessel navigation under bad weather in Yangshan, in order to solve the problem and provide better condition for vessels calling at Shanghai. Figure shows that, with two-way navigation, the average waiting time for vessels in Yangshan is shortened to 1.75 hours from 3.5hours, berth utilization is increased to 84% from 72%, which will help the port to provide better service for carriers. source: portshanghai.com

SEA TRANSPORT Wärtsilä Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems selected for three more Color Line ships Wärtsilä, the marine industry’s leading solutions and services provider, has been contracted to retrofit its Open Loop Scrubber systems on three additional vessels owned by Color Line, Norway’s largest cruise and ferry operator. This confirms Wärtsilä’s leading position in the scrubber market with 36 shipsets, totalling 75 scrubber units, either already installed or in the pipeline. Each vessel will be fitted with four systems designed to rid the ships’ exhaust gases of harmful sulphur oxide (SOx) and particulate emissions. The Wärtsilä systems will enable the vessels to comply with current and anticipated environmental legislation, and to operate without restrictions in Emissions Control Areas (ECAs). The contract was signed in September 2013 and it follows a similar order placed in June 2013 to retrofit Color Line’s SuperSpeed II ferry. The new contract covers the company’s SuperSpeed I, Color Magic and Color Fantasy ships. SuperSpeed I sails between Norway and Denmark, while the other two vessels link Oslo, Norway with Kiel, Germany. “Color Line sees environmental issues as a priority and the use of Wärtsilä exhaust gas cleaning systems on another three of our vessels is a significant step towards our goals in this respect. The marine sector is obligated to operate in a more sustainable manner and we applaud Wärtsilä for its leadership in environmental performance enhancing technologies,” says Mr Jan Helge Pile, SVP Marine & Technical, Color Line Marine A/S. “Wärtsilä continues to demonstrate its leadership in the delivery of innovative technologies that enable ship owners and operators to meet the dual challenges of environmental compliance and rising operating costs. Our exhaust cleaning systems are one of the increasingly important elements of this strategy, offering an efficient and cost-effective alternative to low- sulphur fuel,” says Mr Sigurd Jenssen, Director, Exhaust Gas Cleaning, Environmental Solutions, Wärtsilä Ship Power. In addition to the equipment delivery, Wärtsilä has also assumed responsibility for the basic and detailed engineering and for the installation supervision. “We see an increasing interest in our capability to supply turnkey installations,” says Mr Leonardo Sonzio, Director, Retrofit, Environmental Solutions, Wärtsilä Ship Power. “By working in close co-operation with the customer, Wärtsilä can develop tailored retrofit turnkey solutions that span the entire project, from the very first enquiry until the system is successfully delivered and installed.
40
In addition to the Exhaust Gas Cleaning System retrofit projects, Wärtsilä also offers complete services for retrofitting Ballast Water Management Systems.” The Wärtsilä Open Loop Scrubber System The system operates in an open loop using seawater to remove SOx from the exhaust. Exhaust gas enters the system and is sprayed with seawater in three different stages. The sulphur oxides in the exhaust react with the water to form sulphuric acid. Chemicals are not required since the natural alkalinity of seawater neutralizes the acid. Wash water from the system is treated and monitored at the inlet and outlet to ensure that it conforms to all applicable discharge criteria. It can then be discharged into the sea with no risk of harm to the environment. source: wartsila.com

Marine geoengineering including ocean fertilization to be regulated under amendments to international treaty
35th Consultative Meeting of Contracting Parties to the Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes and Other Matter, 1972 (London Convention) 8th meeting of Contracting Parties to the 1996 Protocol thereto (London Protocol) Marine geoengineering, including ocean fertilization, will be regulated under amendments to the 1996 Protocol to the international treaty which regulates the dumping of wastes and other matter at sea.
The amendments, adopted on Friday (18 October) by Parties to the 1996 Protocol to the Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes and Other Matter, 1972, add a new article 6bis which states that “Contracting Parties shall not allow the placement of matter into the sea from vessels, aircraft, platforms or other man-made structures at sea for marine geoengineering activities listed in Annex 4, unless the listing provides that the activity or the sub-category of an activity may be authorized under a permit”. Marine geoengineering is defined as “a deliberate intervention in the marine environment to manipulate natural processes, including to counteract anthropogenic climate change and/or its impacts, and that has the potential to result in deleterious effects, especially where those effects may be widespread, long-lasting or severe”. A new Annex 4 on “Marine geoengineering” lists “Ocean fertilization”, defined as “any activity undertaken by humans with the principal intention of stimulating primary productivity in the oceans. Ocean fertilization does not include conventional aquaculture, or mariculture, or the creation of artificial reefs.” The Annex provides that all ocean fertilization activities other than those referred to above shall not be permitted. An ocean fertilization activity may only be considered for a permit if it is assessed as constituting legitimate scientific 44
research taking into account any specific placement assessment framework. A new annex V adds the Assessment Framework for matter that may be considered for placement under Annex 4. The Assessment framework provides that Contracting Parties should consider any advice on proposals for activities listed from independent international experts or an independent international advisory group of experts. The amendments will enter into force 60 days after two thirds of the Contracting Parties have deposited an instrument of acceptance of the amendment with IMO. (The London Protocol currently has 43 Parties.) Mr. Stefan Micallef, Director, Marine Environment Division, International Maritime Organization (IMO) commended the adoption of the amendment to regulate the placement of matter for ocean fertilization and other marine geoengineering activities. “This is a true testament to the fact that the London Protocol continues to be among the most advanced international regulatory instruments addressing human activities in the marine environment and there is no doubt that this much-awaited amendment will be appreciated by other international bodies. The amendment also reflects the scientific-based approach of the London Convention and its 1996 Protocol,” Mr. Micallef said. Representatives of the Contracting Parties to the Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes and Other Matter, 1972 (London Convention) and to the 1996 Protocol thereto (London Protocol), were in London for their 35th/8th meeting, held from 14 to 18 October at the Headquarters of IMO, which hosts the Office for the London Convention and Protocol. source: imo.org

Yara and Wilhelmsen strengthen collaboration in maritime emissions reduction market Yara and Wilhelmsen Maritime Services (WMS) have entered into a new collaborative agreement on emissions to air in the marine sector. The agreement establishes direct collaboration and enables both companies to focus on core strengths in reducing nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions to air from commercial vessels.
collaboration: “Yarwil and the NOxCare Marine solution have been successful, but the competitive environment in their main markets has gotten steadily tougher, putting increasing pressure on prices and profitability. A leaner supply model is therefore needed to counter this development.”
This agreement provides for Yara to take over ownership of Yarwil’s NOx abatement technology, for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), and further develop it for use in the marine emissions to air market. Wilhelmsen Maritime Services will continue as a distributor in the maritime market.
Further development A lean and cost efficient global sales and distribution organization will be established, building on Yara’s existing sales and supply structure and utilizing Wilhelmsen Maritime Services’ worldwide network. Furthermore, Yara will acquire the sulfur oxides (SOx) scrubber development project from Maritime Protection, recently acquired by Wilhelmsen Technical Solutions. A commercial agreement will be established, securing Wilhelmsen Technical Solutions the right to sell the technology when it has become commercially available.
Successful business in growing market “The market for this environmental technology is rapidly increasing and we expect to see a steady growth with adoption of such systems by commercial vessels. We look forward to continuing in a more direct way our close cooperation with Wilhelmsen with regards to the nitrogen chemistry and technology for maritime emissions abatement,” said Yves Bonte, Head of Yara’s Industrial segment. Dag Schjerven, president and CEO of Wilhelmsen Maritime Services explained the background for the new
WMS and Yara entered the market in 2007 with the Yarwil joint venture, offering NOx abatement solutions under the NOxCare brand. Yarwil and its employees will be transferred to the two parent companies respectively. source: yara.com

SEA TRANSPORT Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries (HSHI), a shipbuilding affiliate of Hyundai Heavy Industries, the world’s biggest shipbuilder, announced today it successfully launched a 162,000 m3 LNG carrier built using the on-ground shipbuilding method for the first time in the world. The vessel, designed for delivering chilled natural gas, was ordered by Golar of Norway in February, 2012. It, measurings 289.0 m in length, 45.6 m in width, and 26.0 m in depth, is scheduled to be handed
over to the owner by late July 2014 after outfitting and painting work. After about 270 large blocks, LNG containment system, an engine, a propeller are manufactured and assembled in the on-land shipbuilding area equipped with a 1,200-tonne gantry crane, four jib cranes and a floating dock, the assembled LNG carrier is loaded out onto a floating dock by hydraulic skidding, then the LNG ship is launched out by submerging the floating dock. Striking balance of the LNG carrier, which is about 30% heavier than other type of ships, on the hydraulic skidding facility and on the floating dock is the critical point of launching. Though this is the first LNG carrier Hyundai Samho has built using the on-ground method, the company has already built 50 other ships using this method since May 2008. Since on-ground shipbuilding method allows higher productivity and cost effectiveness, facilitates efficient utilization of yard facilities and resources, and improves the safety of working conditions, Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries plans to build 10 of 12 LNG carriers in its order book using this method. source: hhi.com

Hankook Tire’s Quarterly Gauge Index Reveals What’s on the Minds of American Drivers This Fall From the future of cars and tires to the ‘ultimate thrill ride’, survey delves into drivers’ attitudes Wayne, NJ, Hankook Tire America Corp. released findings from its Fall Gauge Index, the most recent installment of the quarterly survey. The Fall Gauge asked 998 Americans to weigh in on the latest trends in driving and travel: The Future of Cars More than half of Americans surveyed believe in the next 20 years that all cars will be electric or hybrid (56 percent), able to communicate with other cars on the road (54 percent), and completely drive themselves (52 percent). Additionally, when it comes to tires, the majority (75 percent) of American drivers stated that it is likely they will equip their vehicle with completely airless tires by 2033. Airless passenge r vehicle tires are a concept that Hankook Tire has been exploring as a future technology. Hankook recently revealed the Hankook iFlex, an airless tire concept which utilizes an innovative structure of organically connected spokes to absorb bumps and is constructed of recyclable, highly elasticated polyurethane synthetic materials. The Hankook iFlex concept also targets low rolling resistance, which helps to increase vehicle fuel efficiency. Thanksgiving Travel When asked about fall road trips, Americans are thinking (and stressing) about Thanksgiving. Up eight percent from last year’s Thanksgiving holiday travel data, 28 percent of Americans will hit the road for the Thanksgiving holiday, traveling an average of 1,117 miles. Unfortunately, with all this driving, 40 percent stated that Thanksgiving traffic will be the most stressful part of their holiday, followed by potential car breakdowns (11 percent), friends and family (10 percent) and the food (9 percent). The Ultimate Thrill Ride Adventure is also on the mind. Thirty two (32) percent of Americans surveyed said they consider skydiving the ultimate thrill ride, followed by a ride in a race car (26 percent), white water rafting (16 percent), a roller coaster ride (13 percent), and a zip-line ride (13 percent). The Ideal Driving Companion
64
The quarterly gauge also took a lighter turn, asking Americans for their preferred road trip companion. With Halloween right around the corner, Americans’ preferences trended towards the spooky. Fifty-nine (59) percent of respondents said they’d prefer to cruise with Frankenstein vs. Dracula (41 percent). In addition to the Halloween icons, Americans weighed in on road tripping with other friendly competitors: Sixty (60) percent chose Stephen King as their storyteller on the road vs. F. Scott Fitzgerald (40 percent) Bert and Ernie, two of the biggest ‘rivals’ in American culture, came in at an even 50-50 split The popular ‘Angry Bird’ came out as the clear winner (68 percent) vs. ‘Zombie’ (32 percent) “Our Hankook Quarterly Gauge Index continually sets the tone for seasonal driving trends and reveals great insight into American drivers’ opinions and sentiments. These results are some of our most compelling to date.” said Henry Kopacz, Public Relations and Social Media Manager, Hankook Tire America Corp. The Hankook Tire Gauge Index was conducted September 18-19, 2013 by Vision Critical on behalf of Hankook Tire America Corp. Additional findings from the survey include: 38 percent of Americans think to ‘get in a car and keep driving’ is the most romantic way to get away; 37 percent said riding in a train is, and 25 percent would prefer to fly 58 percent of Americans are very satisfied with their partners’ treatment of their vehicle 42 percent of Americans rely on themselves to conduct regular tire maintenance on their vehicle; 38 percent rely on a mechanic; 17 percent rely on their spouse; 1 percent rely on their parents source: hankooktireusa.com
