Maria Angelicoussis, who has assumed the role of acting CEO of the Angelicoussis Group, said : “We understand the interest in my father’s condition. We will provide an update when we can and as appropriate, but in the meantime we kindly request that the privacy of my father and his family are respected at this most worrying time.” Angelicoussis joined his father’s company in 1973 and has since grown it to become the largest shipowner in Greece in tonnage terms with a fleet of more than 130 vessels including tankers, dry bulk carriers and gas carriers.

Construction Company Starts New Container Line for Seaway Ports The Gesina Schepers will be Doornekamp Lines' first vessel (Doornekamp Lines) BY HARRY VALENTINE Distribution : daily to 43.350+ active addresses 24-03-2021 Page 3 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2021– 083 A family-owned construction company based in Odessa, Ontario plans to introduce twice-weekly ship transportation service between Eastern Canada’s Port of Halifax and ports located along the Upper St. Lawrence River and Lower Great Lakes. The newly-founded Doornekamp Lines intends to carry containers, project freight and breakbulk cargo. The introduction of larger container ships on the trans-North Atlantic service between the Port of Newark and European/Western Asian ports provides opportunities for container transshipment and ship interlining at Eastern Canada’s Port of Halifax. Development of new container transfer technology enhances future business prospects for future container transshipment at Halifax that has the potential to evolve into a companion port for the Ports of Newark and of Boston. There is identical sailing distance between Europe and Port of Newark irrespective of whether or not a ship briefly stops at Halifax for container transshipment. The new super-size container ships are too big to sail into the Ports of Boston and Portland where there is also insufficient market demand to warrant using the big ships. There is economic merit in sailing a single large ship across the North Atlantic while carrying containers destined for multiple ports that include Newark, New York City, Boston and Portland, with container transshipment occurring at Halifax. However, transshipment at Halifax opens the door to include containers for other destinations including orts located along the Upper St. Lawrence River (Seaway) and around Lakes Ontario and Erie. Small Ship Precedent While container ships in excess of 12,000 TEU sail across the North Atlantic, Halifax south terminal is being upgraded to provide service to larger container ships. Using container transfer technology increases the volume of container transshipment to multiple interlining ships. However, a comparatively diminutive container ship of less than 1,000 TEU capacity has feasibly sailed across the North Atlantic and Lower Great Lakes between the Ports of Antwerp and Cleveland. The high cost of container railway transportation between Newark and Cleveland offsets the savings from sailing a large ship to Newark, making the small ship cost-competitive. That ship provides the basis to develop a business plan involving a comparable size of ship to sail a seasonal interline service between Halifax and inland waterway ports located upstream of the Port of Montreal. Doornekamp Lines has developed such a business plan. Competitiveness Doornekamp Lines has negotiated a partnership agreement with the French ocean carrier CMA CGM, which sails into Halifax and Newark. They plan to carry interlined containers and other freight between Halifax and ports located along the St. Lawrence Seaway and Lower Great Lakes. However, Canadian “cabotage” regulations will determine the competitiveness of the proposed interlined ship service against railway transportation. One interpretation of Canadian regulations could actually allow Doornekamp Lines to fly a European flag from Halifax while sailing to Canadian Seaway ports, thereby saving the higher expense of flying the Canadian flag. Ships stopping at Halifax typically carry three to five times the number of containers than ships that sail to Montreal and incur much lower per container transportation costs sailing from European and Western Asian ports. The Doornekamp Lines interlined service has the potential to extend the overall competitive container transportation rates between Asian/European ports of origin and destination ports located along the Seaway and Lower Great Lakes. Their service would suit customers who are willing to delay container delivery in exchange for substantial savings in overall per container transportation rates. Regulation Transportation regulation could restrict the interlining ship sailing from Halifax to serve only the American ports of Ogdensburg, New York and Cleveland, Ohio. Canadian bound containers destined for retail related distribution warehouses located across Eastern Ontario would be offloaded at Ogdensburg and carried by truck to their final destinations, despite the Port of Johnstown, Ontario being located directly across the river from Ogdensburg. A tug barge would carry containers from Ogdensburg across the international border to any of the ports of Toronto, Oshawa or Hamilton, with final destinations for containers spread across the greater metropolitan Toronto region. An interpretation of Canadian transportation regulation will determine whether an interline ship sailing from Halifax would serve only American inland waterway ports or whether the ship will also serve Canadian Seaway and Lower Great Lakes ports. Ship vs railway cost Prior to the reconstruction of the Panama Canal to transit larger container ships, an American transportation research group compared the cost of moving a full ship load of containers from the Port of Long Beach CA and the inland waterway Port of Memphis. Despite an older generation Panamax ship having to sail 3-times the distance via the Panama Canal compared to the more direct railway journey, the ship interlined with a tug-barge flotilla incurred savings in per container transportation costs over a fleet of railway trains traveling over a much shorter and more direct route. The higher transportation cost per container aboard trans-continental trains prompted the reconstruction of the Panama Canal to transit larger container ships, which would sail between Asian ports and east coast American ports, providing lower per container transportation cost upon arrival at their eastern destinations. Larger ships will sail between some Asian ports Distribution : daily to 43.350+ active addresses 24-03-2021 Page 4 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2021– 083 and east coast American ports via a soon to be expanded twin-channel Suez Canal, with future potential to displace Panamax ships that sail to the same ports via the Panama Canal, extending time-in-transit duration in exchange for reduced per container transportation costs. Asian containers to Seaway ports Containers destined for Eastern Canada arrive at Pacific maritime ports followed by costly trans-continental railway transportation service. Customers located around the Lower Great Lakes and Seaway may reduce container transportation costs by scheduling container delivery during the Seaway shipping season. Maritime transportation will provide lower costs carrying their containers via the Suez Canal from Asian ports to Seaway and Lower Great Lakes ports. A container ship of under 1,000 TEU feasibly sailing between the Ports of Antwerp and Cleveland (metro population two million) suggests potentially feasible interlined sailing to a metropolitan population of

  • March of the Carriers, by Sarosh Bana
    scholar warrior March of the Carriers SAROSH BANA Aircraft carriers are finding favour with Indo-Asia-Pacific countries keen on bolstering their defences in an increasingly volatile neighbourhood With simmering territorial disputes inflaming the Indo-Asia-Pacific, countries in this fastest growing economic region in the world are making all efforts to buttress their defences. In their anxiety to batten down the hatches, several of these countries are viewing the aircraft carrier as the preferred platform for sea control and are pulling out all the stops to commit funding for it. These platforms, at times amphibious ships that are essentially helicopter destroyers with the potential to operate fixed-wing aircraft, including drones, have been gaining favour as the South and East China Seas find themselves in the cross- hairs of territorial ambitions. But this military build-up is raising tensions even higher in the region and is likely to provoke an avoidable arms race. As many as 18 flatdecks have been, or are being, bought, built or operated by the six regional powers: China (five), Japan (four), India (four), Australia (two), South Korea (two) and Thailand (one). Last August, India launched its 37,500-tonne indigenous aircraft carrier, the Vikrant, while Japan launched its 19,500-tonne Izumo, modelled more as a destroyer with a flight deck that can embark helicopters. With the Vikrant, India is now part of an exclusive group of countries like the UK, the US, Italy, Spain, Russia and France that can make these floating airfields.

    Note de Synthèse N°58 Octobre 2003 www.isemar.asso.fr Brittany Ferries, la dynamique d’un armateur régional En 1972, aucun armateur européen traditionnel n’aurait parié sur l’avenir de la BAI : ouvrir une ligne transmanche par ferries au départ du Finistère semblait suicidaire aux armateurs français, britanniques, allemands et scandinaves sollicités par Alexis Gourvennec. Il fallait de l’audace et de la volonté. Les Bretons ont eu l’une et l’autre. D’abord essentiellement préoccupés par la livraison des produits agricoles léonards en Angleterre, ils ont ouvert de nouvelles lignes transmanche au départ de Saint Malo et des ports bas-normands, et développé la vente de séjours touristiques. Chaque été, l’afflux massif de touristes anglais vers l’ouest de la France, de la Bretagne à l’Aquitaine, contribue incontestablement au succès de l’entreprise. La BAI exploite aussi en « cross-trader » une ligne reliant Plymouth et Santander. Outre les premières années, la décennie 90 malmena la société : questions monétaires, ouverture du tunnel sous la Manche, suppression du commerce hors taxe, et enfin marée noire ! Cela ne décourage pas la confiance dans l’avenir puisque deux navires neufs sont livrés en 2002 et 2004. Après avoir évoqué la création de la société et son enracinement régional, nous analyserons sa croissance, puis situerons la part qu’elle occupe dans la flotte française d’aujourd’hui. L’enracinement régional et le contexte particulier L’évolution des matériels en transport maritime et de la création de la BAI notamment pour le franchissement de la Manche nécessite des structures portuaires adaptées, Un héritage économique fort capables d’accueillir les navires, en l’occurrence ici les ferries ou transbordeurs, de manière Les échanges maritimes entre les petits ports de la permanente.

  • Navy News Week 2-2
    NAVY NEWS WEEK 2-2 7 January 2019 Year ends with ongoing kidnapping case involving 3 fishermen On Dec 6, a boat was found with its engine running but without its skipper or crew members near Pegasus Reef, Kinabatangan Speculations about the trio being kidnapped were rife as the "ghost boat" was found near the scene of an attempted robbery or kidnapping on a tugboat by masked gunmen. Sabah Police Commissioner Datuk Omar Mammah confirmed on Dec 11 that the three fishermen who went missing from their boat were kidnapped and taken to an unknown location in southern Philippines This information was obtained after the foreign fishing boat skipper had called his wife in Sandakan that he and the other crew members have been kidnapped and taken to a location in the Philippines which could not be revealed As at press time, there was no ransom demand by the abductors from the families of Hari Ardiansya, 19, Jadri Abdullah, 34, and Hariadin, 45. Just near where the fishermen's boat was found, on the same day, armed pirates tried to hijack a tugboat at Pegasus Reef near Pulau Tambisan, off Lahad Datu, at about 6.30pm, leaving the tugboat's skipper injured. The "Magtrans II" tugboat carrying 13 crew members was approached by four masked men armed with M16s who fired two shots, one hitting the boat and another hitting the skipper on his left thigh. Although they weren't armed with actual firearms, one of the crew took the initiative to retaliate by firing 10 shots of the boat's flare gun towards the pirates, causing them to panic and flee.

  • Double-Celebration for Two New Brittany Ferries Ships
    Press Release 11th September 2019 Double-celebration for two new Brittany Ferries ships Ferry company Brittany Ferries has marked two key milestones in its €550 million fleet renewal programme. At the AVIC Weihai shipyard in Shandong, eastern China, shipyard workers and Brittany Ferries teams gathered to celebrate the launch of cruise-ferry Galicia, and the start of building work for sister ship Salamanca. The 215-metre long hull of Galicia was majestically floated out at a traditional Chinese ship- launching ceremony. Then, alongside in the building dock the very first steel was cut for fleet mate Salamanca marking the beginning of the ship’s construction. When complete, the two ships will serve Brittany Ferries’ long-haul routes connecting Portsmouth to Santander and Bilbao in northern Spain, with Galicia due to enter service in late 2020 followed by Salamanca in spring 2022. They will be joined a year later by a third sister ship to be named Santoña. “It gives me great pleasure to be here in China today to celebrate the launch of Galicia and the start of work on Salamanca,” said Brittany Ferries CEO Christophe Mathieu. “Our customers rightly expect our fleet to be modern, comfortable and efficient, with the promise of minimal environmental impact from operations and we can only achieve this aim with the very best, innovative new ships. Galicia and Salamanca are perfectly suited to our long-haul Spanish operations, and will allow us to further enhance our service to holidaymakers and hauliers taking advantage of these routes. “As a French company operating ferries between the UK, France, Spain and Ireland, we are, for sure, concerned by the current political uncertainty in Europe.

  • Brittany Ferries L'épopée D'un Armement Paysan?
    La Bretagne et la mer Brittany ferries L’épopée d’un armement paysan? Alexis Gourvennec Président-directeur général de Brittany ferries C’est une compagnie atypique, née il y a trente-deux ans de l’ambition d’une poignée de paysans finistériens et condamnée par tous les experts de l’époque à disparaître avant même d’avoir fait naviguer son premier navire, qui affiche aujourd’hui de nouvelles ambitions sur la Manche. Contre vents et marées, cet armement issu d’un capitalisme collectif agricole avant- gardiste est devenu le premier employeur de marins français : ils sont aujourd’hui plus de 1 500 à naviguer sur les huit navires au pavillon tricolore de l’armateur breton. Brittany Ferries dont le patronyme sonne volontairement anglais, dessert quatre pays d’Europe, a transporté en 2004 plus de 2,5 millions de passagers, 750 000 voitures et plus de 200 000 camions à travers la Manche pour un chiffre d’affaires total consolidé de 346,6 millions d’euros. Une réussite incontestable qui s‘appuie avant tout sur la volonté hors du commun de ses dirigeants et sur la réactivité exceptionnelle des personnels de l’entreprise. Récit d’une odyssée des temps modernes par son Président directeur général et fondateur, Alexis Gourvennec. Alexis Gourvennec, comment un paysan, jeune président d’un marché au cadran et militant de la Jeunesse agricole chrétienne (JAC), est-il devenu armateur dans les années 70 ?
