An Overview of Our Activities at Impala Terminals

🌍 The Panama and Suez Canals have faced major disruptions, affecting RoRo and MPP operations worldwide. From the Ever Given blockage and Red Sea tensions at Suez to drought-induced capacity cuts of up to 40% at Panama, these events highlight the need for alternative transit strategies. 🚢 As of October 10th, we’re excited to introduce our new Canals page, which allows users to track weekly and monthly canal statistics, canal waiting times, and operator activities in detail. 📊 Key September 2024 Insights: • Bosporus Strait: RoRo total canal waiting time: 2.5 days(📈 53% increase YoY) | MPP: 61.4 days (📉 49% improvement YoY) • Kiel Canal: RoRo transits by September 2024: 104 (📉 54% decrease YoY) | MPP operations: 5,114 (📉 7% drop YoY) • Panama Canal: RoRo transits by September 2024: 595 (📈 1% increase YoY) | MPP operations: 258 (📉 34% drop YoY) • Suez Canal: RoRo saw 12 transits from Grimaldi, Samjoo, and others | MPP recorded 24 transits from G2 Ocean, COSCO, BBC, and more 🔎 Stay updated with our real-time canal insights and operator-level tracking.

Gatekeepers of the Global Shipping Industry This month we introduced new and valuable functionality in both our RoRo and MPP product - Canal Analytics. Albeit cargo volume is the main driver for shipping demand, any restriction in vessel supply will play a major role in freight rate development. When vessels need to either wait (e.g. Panama) or take longer routes (e.g. Suez), you are effectively restricting vessel supply. This means tighter market as the global fleet will spend more vessel days in carrying same cargo volume. Not only is our clients able now to get deep insights in the development on a global scale - as we map each vessel to a commercial operator together with Hesnes Shipping AS (RoRo) and Toepfer Transport GmbH (MPP) you can also see developments per commercial operator.

Once again, we're expanding our marine fuel supply operations in Brazil in collaboration with Bunker One. Starting this month, vessels will be able to refuel at the outer anchorage of Sepetiba in Rio de Janeiro, a strategic port for South Atlantic maritime routes. Sepetiba has the capacity to receive large ships, contributing significantly to international trade. Our goal is to deliver 20,000 tons of bunker fuel monthly in Sepetiba, meeting the needs of bulk carriers, large cargo ships, and the oil and gas industry. This is an attractive and efficient logistics alternative as it allows for refueling without docking, avoiding interference with loading and unloading operations at terminals.   This new operation reinforces Acelen's commitment to providing fuel on a permanent and steadily growing basis, offering more options for our customers navigating the area. #energy #supply #globaltrade #energysecurity #navigation

while the total number of global terminal operators (GTOs) featuring in the Drewry league tables remained unchanged at 21 in 2023, the composition has changed significantly. The league tables that are a central feature in the latest edition of Drewry’s Global Container Terminal Operators Annual Review and Forecast now include Adani, AD Ports Group and Hapag-Lloyd AG, while the acquisition of SAAM Ports and Bolloré has removed these two companies from the rankings. The position of the largest global terminal operators (GTOs) at the top of the rankings has further strengthened, with the seven largest firms now handling over 40% of global port throughput on an equity-adjusted basis. https://lnkd.in/gkVCRrV8 PSA International or APM Terminals or DP World or Hutchison Ports Blog – Transportation Sector – Analysis and Commentary – April 2024 - https://lnkd.in/gZ4nbJYZ

During my time at this company, I have clearly observed how we are all growing together under a wise leadership, which will ultimately lead us to success and development.
