10 ISSUES FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN PORT INDUSTRY
• The Mediterranean port industry is constantly evolving and striving for increased innovation
• During the last decades globalisation and containerisation have reshaped the maritime and port industry and still continue to present challenging changes
• Looking at the Mediterranean port industry, 10 main issues can be identified:

NEW TRENDS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN PORT INDUSTRY
1. BIGGER AND BIGGER VESSELS
Ships have been getting bigger and bigger over the past decades
A continuing trend: every year new plans are created to increase the current fleet available.
2015 - MSC OSCAR: 19.224 TEUs
2007 – EDITH MAERSK: 15.500 TEUs
1997 – SOVEREIGN MAERSK: 8.100 TEUs
FAST GROWTH DRIVEN TO VERY LARGE CONTAINER VESSELS (VLCV)

2. NEW NETWORK LAYOUTS
IMPACTS ON THE SHIPPING NETWORK OF THE USE OF VLCS:
• longer roundtrips;•reduction in the number of ports called in a roundtrip service;•need to use additional vessels to maintain service frequency. •optimized network respect to final destinations

3. NEW ALLIANCES AND MERGES
• During 2016 Drewry has assessed losses for 10 billion of US $ for container market, caused by increase of oil cost, low freight rates for ships and high capital investments
• 2M (Maersk and MSC), Ocean Alliance (CMA CGM, COSCO Container Lines, Evergreen Line and OOCL ) Grand Alliance (Hapag-Lloyd, Nippon Yusen Kaisha and Orient Overseas Container Line) and New World Alliance (APL, Hyundai Merchant Marine, and Mitsui O.S.K Lines).
1. APM-Maersk 2,931,661 TEU (15.5%)2. Mediterranean Shg Co 2,555,444 TEU (13.5%)3. CMA CGM Group 1,657,053 TEU (8.8%)4. Hapag-Lloyd 974,602 TEU (5.2%) 5. Evergreen Line 955,174 TEU (5.1%) 6. COSCO Container L. 824,702 TEU (4.4%) 7. CSCL 676,564 TEU (3.6%) 8. MOL 609,708 TEU (3.2%) 9. Hanjin Shipping 608,459 TEU (3.2%)10. APL 562,346 TEU (3.0%)
IN 2015 THE 10 TOP CONTAINER OPERATORS CONTROL MORE THAN
65% OF THE MARKET
In the Asia-Europe lane, Maersk, MSC and CMA-CGM control around 60% of the capacity

4. MORE SPECIALISED VESSELS
Until a few years ago, container seemed to be the only way of transporting cargo
Today several shipping companies are investing in specialised ship types, mostly in the heavy lifting industry and transportation of chemicals.
Extremely specialised ships have been constructed, pushing the crew to new levels of specialised knowledge about their ships and trade.
NOT ONLY CONTAINER
SPECIALISED SHIP ABLE TO ONLY TRANSPORT PARTS OF OFFSHORE WIND-MILLS

5. INNOVATIVE PORTS
INNOVATIVE AND EFFICIENT CONTAINER TERMINALS
• Automation of port operations • High-speed operations
• Space-efficient terminals • Maintenance as strategy to improve productivity
• Safety, training and simulation BEST TERMINAL – BARCELONASEMI-AUTOMATED TERMINAL

NEW TRENDS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN PORT INDUSTRY
6. PORT COMMUNITY SYSTEMS
FLEXIBLE AND FAST EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION AS A KEY FACTOR TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY OF PORT OPERATION
Port Community System widespread in Med Area (not only big ports)
ICT and network relations are increase between transport operators
Port Gate automation
Smart Port

7. EVOLUTION OF THE PORT CONCEPT
PORTS ARE CHANGING
From interface between maritime transport and land transport to LOGISTICS INDUSTRIAL ZONES
able to provide:
• Integrated logistics services
• Value-added logistics services
• IT infrastructures
ADVANTAGES OF LOGISTICS INDUSTRIAL ZONES
• New opportunities of economic growth for territories
• Greater attractiveness and bargaining power of the port

8. INCREASING FOCUS ON A GREEN IMAGE
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
Innovations are made in order to reduce the environmental footprint of port operations.
On-shore power supply
Innovative system to provide electricity from the local grid
to ships to meet their power demand: ships’ operations
can proceed uninterrupted, while eliminating negative
side effects.‐ LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)
Some seagoing vessels are already fueled by LNG and new
engines are being developed.

9. PORT PRIVATISATION
WITH THE EXPANSION OF THE PORT INDUSTRY, THE STRUCTURE OF THE PORT SECTOR HAS CHANGED
Three main typologies of container terminal operators:
1.Port authorities that directly operate their terminals;
2.Private port terminal operating companies. The main operators have expanded their activities
outside of their ports of origin, associating themselves with large stevedoring groups (e.g. PSA
Corporation, Hutchinson, ECT, P&O Ports, and SSA);
3. Shipping lines that decide to directly control and manage their own terminals for economic and
strategic reason (direct control of port operations).

10. NEW EMERGING ROUTES
THE EXPANSION OF THE PANAMA CANAL
THE AFRICAN ROUTE
THE NORTHERN SEA ROUTE
EXTERNAL FACTORS AT MED AREA (THREATS)
New maritime transportation routes will open up in the Arctic due
to the melting of sea ice.
Potential benefits: ship routes between North Europe and Far East
would be about 30% shorter. Sea routes between North America
and Far East would also become shorter.
