13 Demand forecasting: Overview

FREIGHT DEMAND MODEL (FDM) 30 year ECONOMIC DATA GAIN Port, Rail, Road and Conningarth production and Pipeline forecasts consumption of commodities by district and growth for 30 years

TRANSPORTATION MODEL (TTM) Transnet flows demand on LIQUID FUELS network: rail, ports, pipelines MARKET SHARE MODEL (LFDM) MODEL (MSM) EON / ETP Transnet flow model and determines rail growth forecasts for addressable market 30 years (RAM)

• The demand planning process in Transnet employs a suite of four models. These are used to determine the demand for transportation for all types of freight and then predicting how this demand will change over the next 30 years. 14 Mining freight: Supply/Production and Demand/Consumption areas

16 Demand forecasting: Market share considerations

Longer distances High volumes Certain Commodity types Short-haul distribution is more efficient Rail is a bulk mover Typically bulk minerals heavy on road Big parcels in a single move goods/containers/etc.

Corridor effect Concentrated corridors attract more traffic

Road friendly Road or rail Rail friendly

• Fundamental to the working of the Freight Demand Model is the ability to analyse the quantities, parcel sizes and distances associated with each commodity on the network. • Rail naturally works better for longer distances, big parcel sizes and bulky commodities. 17 Coal from the Waterberg

53 1a. WATERBERG EXISTING LINE UPGRADE Expansion from 5 to 27mtpa (3 to 23mtpa of Coal)

Project description:

Development of the Waterberg feeder rail system to accommodate demand for: (a) domestic and export coal and (b) iron-ore, granite and other general freight originating from the Waterberg and Rustenburg area. The project consists of upgrading the existing route to increase capacity to an estimated 27 Mtpa of coal. Rail infrastructure expansion through incremental upgrades of the existing rail networks and yards by means of additional loops, maintaining the existing axle loads, electrical upgrades and improved train control systems.

Five Stages from 5 Mtpa up to about 27 Mtpa:

• Stage 1: Matlabas loop extension (moved to Coal to 81Mtpa) • Stage 2: Thabazimbi extensions • Stage 3: Ferrogate, Arthersview, Paul, Phokeng, Rooiheuwel and Pyramid South. • Stage 4: Lengthen Matlabas loop for 200 wagon trains, Lengthen Northam, Additional loop at Thabazimbi and Additional loop at Pyramid South • Stage 5: Lephalale to Thabazimbi electrification

Capacity beyond 27 Mtpa will be investigated as part of the study.

Estimated Total Cost: R5.0 bn (Escalated)

Challenges Status Quo

• Limited water resources in the Waterberg area will significantly impact the full development of • Tender for the FEL-2/3 for stage 3-5 EPCM Service Provider will be mines due to lower quality of coal and environmental compliance issues closed on 27 Aug 2014, envisage approval for award 02 Oct 2014 (TCP NAC), • MCWAP II (water provision program) required for expansion beyond 15mtpa • Level Crossing tender will be awarded in Mid-Aug 2014, • Topographical Survey and Geo-Tech consultants on site for Stage 2, • Mineral qualities for domestic market unknown Consultants will continue with Stages 3-5 after stage 2 is completed, • Environmental tender for stage 2 award envisaged Mid-Aug 2014, • Sanction number required for the material can be ordered for stage 2 • Line electrical capacity simulation underway, • Conducted risk workshop for business/commercial, operational and projects risks, • FEL-2 for stage 2 is being finalised by TCP.

Project description:

Development of the Waterberg feeder rail system to accommodate demand for: (a) domestic and export coal and (b) iron-ore, granite and other general freight originating from the Waterberg and Rustenburg areas.

The project consists of a study for a proposed new heavy haul line between Lephalale and Ermelo for traffic demand beyond the 23 Mtpa additional coal capacity expansion of the existing line. Line capacity will initially be 40 Mtpa scalable to 80 Mtpa and 112 Mtpa, possibly in single line configuration.

Estimated total cost for 112mtpa:

(Not Funded) R51.1bn un-escalated including rolling stock R31.4bn un-escalated (infra only, single line)

Challenges Status Quo

• There is uncertainty about the capacity demand for the new heavy haul line. This is due • Pre-feasibility (FEL 2) study being set up. to the uncertainty about the coal reserves in the Waterberg area. • FEL 2 funding has been approved. • There are exclusion zones in the Waterberg biosphere and national parks which are expected to limit the options for the new line.

• It is anticipated that the environmental approval process will be lengthy, due to the proposed line traversing agricultural, rural, mining and game farming areas, and possibly areas earmarked for metropolitan development.

65 1d. SWAZILAND RAIL LINK

Project description:

This is a bilateral project between Transnet and Swaziland Railway, aimed at establishing a strategic rail link from Lothair to Sidvokodvo in Swaziland. The link seeks to create a dedicated Export General Freight (GF) rail corridor to the eastern seaboards ports of Richards Bay and Maputo. The benefits of the project include:

1. Providing up to 43mtpa of a single line rail capacity to the eastern seaboard ports. 2. Freeing up a maximum of 12 slots (currently used for GF) on the Coal Line, thus unlocking capacity for export coal and improving the efficiency of the Coal Line. 3. Enhancing the integration of the railways of South Africa, Swaziland and Mozambique 4. Acting as a catalyst for regional and local economic development. 5. Providing socio-economic opportunities (jobs, skills, business opportunities etc.) thus contribution towards the fight against poverty. The key dependencies for the success of the link are the upgrades required on the adjacent networks viz. Davel – Lothair, Sidvokodvo – Phuzumoya – Mpaka – Maputo and Phuzumoya – Golela – Richards Bay.

The project is being delivered in three phases: • Phase 1 – deliver capacity of up to 16mtpa (20t/axle – 150 GFB wagon trains) • Phase 2 – deliver capacity of up to 32mtpa (20t/axle – 150 GFB wagon trains) • Phase 3 – deliver capacity of up to 43mtpa (26t/axle – 150 GFB wagon trains)

Estimated total cost:

R6.8bn (Escalated) (Excluding rolling stock) (Project Not Funded)

Challenges Status Quo

• Close monitoring of the community engagements especially in Swaziland and land related matters. • The last 10km of the alignment before Sidvokodvo has been concluded and geotechnical investigation is underway.
