Drewry Shipping Consultants:
Annual review of global container terminal operators
London : Drewry Shipping Consultants, 2003.- 89 pages
Ref.: Analysis of the global container terminal operators. Private
sector participation has increased over the past decade as a result of
the privatisation of existing facilities and the utilisation of private
finance to construct new facilities. Over half of the world's container
terminal capacity is now managed by a small number of companies
that can be defined as global container terminal operators. These
companies, which by definition have operations in more than one
world region, handled an estimated 160 mill. TEU in 2002, over 58
per cent of total world container port throughput. The ten leading
container terminal operators are Hutchinson Port Holdings (HPH),
PSA Corporation, APM Terminals, P&O Ports, Eurogate, Evergreen
Marine Corporation, Dubai Ports Authority (DPA), Cosco, Hanjin
Shipping, and SSA Marine. Drewry's capacity forecasts show that the
global operators' share of world container terminal capacity will
increase at an average 5.6 per cent per year between 2002 and
2008. Contents of this study: 1) Global container terminal industry
structure. 2) Leading operators' league tables (rankings). 3) Analysis
of leading operators. 4) Operator analysis by region.
Ocean Shipping Consultants:
Containerisation in the Americas to 2015
Chertsey/Surrey : Ocean Shipping Consultants, 2003.- 170
pages
Ref.: This study analyses the evolution of regional container handling
demand by port and assesses current developments in the Americas.
The Americas have seen a 2.5-fold increase in containerport demand
since 1990, and expanded even during the economic downturn in
2002. Demand has been boosted by both regionalisation, the
integration of trading patterns within the Americas, and globalisation,
which is progressively integrating all markets with Asia by means of
deepsea links and transshipments. North American containerport
demand has more than doubled over the period, with particularly
strong growth experienced in the Far East-North America trades,
especially with regard to China. Growth has been even more rapid in
the developing markets of Latin America and the wider Caribbean.
Future demand in the Americas is forecast to 2015 by region and
port range. Contents of this study: 1) Introduction. 2) Driving forces
and strategic issues. 3) Overview of markets and forecasts. 4) The
North American containerport market. 5) The Caribbean and Central
American containerport market. 6) The South American containerport
market. 7) Container shipping trends in the Americas. 8)
Containerport productivity in the Americas. 9) North American
intermodalism.

review. The census confirms that there were almost 16 mill. TEU
owned and leased worldwide by mid-2002, comprising almost 15.2
mill. TEU of maritime build and over 775,000 TEU of region-specific
or domestic container types, despite achieving its slowest rate of
annualised growth in almost a decade by just 4.5 per cent. Global
box inventories numbered over 10.5 mill. units at mid-2002 and were
valuated at around US$32.2 bill. The total leased container fleet
amounted to 7.2 mill. TEU at mid-2002. Despite the recent changes
affecting the global box building sector, annualised global production
has remained remarkably stable, averaging 1.4-1.6 mill. TEU, since
the mid-1990s. However, it is imminently forecast to increase,
because of greater replacement and the need to service the
expansion of an ever-larger fleet size.
Marconsult:
Performances of container terminals. Report 2003
Genoa : Marconsult, 2003.- 66, annex pages
Ref.: Report on container terminal productivity. Update of the
previous report 2000. The objective is to establish some comparative
assessment criteria for container terminals. This report examines and
evaluates the infrastructural, structural and organisational data and
the traffic volumes of 34 European container terminals. In addition, it
also considers some non-European terminals that may be regarded
as benchmarks. Annex 1 contains terminals' synthetic cards. Annex 2
provides a detailed description of the various institutional set-ups of
the ports. Annex 3 explains the methods used.

Dynamar: Top 25 container liner operators
Alkmaar : Dynamar, 2003.- 135 pages
Ref.: This publication provides an extensive overview of the world's
largest container shipping companies. Besides a ranking profile of
the top 25 liner operators it provides details of their order book,
container fleet size as well as full container carryings. The report is
rounded off with a listing of alliances, consortia and joint services.
Main findings of the study are: the top 25 liner operators control
nearly 80 per cent of the world's total TEU capacity; have a share of
more than 75 per cent of total chartered fleet; carry more than 80
per cent of all full containers lifted worldwide; twelve of the top 25
operators co-operate in the three large East-West Alliances; the three
large East-West Alliances deploy 27 per cent of the world's total
cellular capacity. The main body of this study provides corporate
profiles of each carrier (and each of their operating subsidiaries) in
alphabetical order.
Dynamar: Top 31-60 liner operators trading profiles
Alkmaar : Dynamar, 2003.- 103 pages

liner operators in terms of TEU capacity as well as details of their
order book, container fleet size and full container carryings it
provides corporate profiles of each carrier in alphabetical order. The
report is rounded off with a listing of alliances, consortia and joint
services, port and trade statistics.
