I-3-20 Vietnam National Transport Strategy Study (VITRANSS) Technical Report No. 8 Shipping and Ports The JICA study recommends the adoption of short-term priority projects, which shall address issues such as maritime safety, ATN and allocation of liner services in the north-south domestic-cargo traffic route. On this route, there are regular demands for shipment of coal, cement and other mining products in bag or bulk. The return leg mainly carries agricultural products and other general cargoes. In relation to the economic growth of and the growing regional industrial zones in the north, center and south of Vietnam, cargo volumes in the near future will exceed the available traffic capacity of other modes such as rail and truck. This being the case, the establishment of an adequate service channel from the northern to the southern main corridor should be closely linked with cargo and passenger demand. Allocation of liner services to this route will increase traffic demand in coastal shipping. TRANSVINA, a joint venture company between VINALINES and Japanese partners, started a scheduled liner container services in 1998. Two vessels, named m/v E Linh and m/v An Xuan (8,384 GRT, service speed of 14.50 kts, built in 1983, owned by VINALINES), provide regular container services. TRANSVINA also utilizes feeder vessels, with a space charter contract with its associated companies, to carry domestic cargoes. VINALINES has dominated the market for domestic transport of container. With the recent launch of TRANSVINA, both companies will still be able to maintain a lion’s share in the domestic market for container transport services. In any event, the increase in the supply of available space in the main traffic route would provide better transport conditions to shippers and complement the expected increase in demand as the coastal shipping industry progresses. Container Operation Major container transportation are provided by feeder vessels being operated by foreign and joint-venture shipping companies mainly from/to Singapore, Hong Kong, Kaohsiung, and Bangkok. Two joint ventures, GEMATRANS and APM-Saigon Shipping, are presently enjoying a dominant share (about 60%) among various feeder service operators in Vietnam, such as Wan Hai and Unigroly (Taiwan), Strait Shipping and APL-NOL (Singapore), and RCL (Thailand), in the carriage of feeder containers. Many foreign shipping companies serving international routes have also availed themselves of the feeder vessel services provided by these operators. According to VINAMARINE’s annual report, there was a 20.57% increase in total throughput of container at ports in 1998, broken down as follows: Export 376,790 TEU (3,139,545 tons) Import 373,429 TEU (4,439,442 tons) Domestic and transit 40,827 TEU (467,143 tons) TOTAL 791,046 TEU (8,064,130 tons)
I-3-21 Vietnam National Transport Strategy Study (VITRANSS) Technical Report No. 8 Shipping and Ports The share of Vietnamese ships in the total cargo movement in 1998 was 57% (454,000 TEU or 4,040,432 tons), or a 15% increase in volume compared to 1997. Container cargo flow in Vietnam can be attributed by area: 70%, 20-22% and 8-10% are being handled in southern, northern and central Vietnam, respectively. The charge table for cargo handling in Vietnam is exclusively being decided and controlled by the Government Price Committee (GPC). Thus, all ports are covered with a single tariff provided under Decision No. 127/VGCP-CNTD.DV issued on 28 October 1997 and enforced since 1 January 1998. As to the charges for container handling, the respective tariff rates in the regions are being applied, as illustrated in Table 3.3.6. Several container ports are operating in Vietnam, as follows: 1) Vietnam International Container Terminal (VICT) This is a privately owned container terminal that began operation in November 1998 in HCMC, the major container-handling port in the south. This terminal is equipped with an automated transport and handling system and modern crane facilities and can provide an efficient mechanical operation similar to other dominant hub container ports like Singapore and Hong Kong. For the initial year, VICT targeted container handling at approximately 170,000 TEU. However, there were only two shipping companies, NOL and Wang Hai, which regularly availed of its services. Moreover, traffic congestion in HCMC restricted inland container movement making it doubly difficult for VICT to attain its initial target. 2) New Saigon Port This port is enjoying the lion’s share with 75% total cargo handling in Saigon. It is a commercially operating terminal located at Binh Thanh district in HCMC and is owned and operated by the defense force. It has a very accessible location, making it the primary choice for shipping companies for the transport and release of their cargoes. The company’s reported container cargo throughput and forecast are as follows: 1996 351,832 TEU (100 %) 1997 403,437 TEU (114.7%) 1998 413,469 TEU (117.5%) 1999 430,000 TEU (122.2%) 2000 500,000 TEU (142.1%)
