Growth of sea-freight volume is expected to be sluggish – increase in<br />
demand for Intra-regional trades<br />
> 2010 volumes to remain at depressed<br />
2009 levels in key trade lanes<br />
> Steady but limited growth in Intra-<br />
European sea-borne containerised trade<br />
> Direct competition from rail companies,<br />
trucks, ro/ro and breakbulk<br />
> Long term, volume is anticipated to be<br />
converted into sea freight (and rail) due<br />
to focus on environment and European<br />
Commission initiatives (Marco Polo<br />
programme)<br />
> High oil price increases competitiveness<br />
of sea freight<br />
