  • Ship-Breaking.Com Information Bulletins on Ship Demolition, # 8 - 11 from January 1, to December 31, 2007
    Ship-breaking.com Information bulletins on ship demolition, # 8 - 11 from January 1, to December 31, 2007 Robin des Bois 2008 Press release January, 24th 2008 Global Statement 2007 of Shipping Vessels Sent to Demolition For the 2nd consecutive year, Robin des Bois has been studying in detail the reality of the ship breaking market. The mobilisation and the analysis of about thirty diverse and specialised bibliographical sources made it possible to establish an inventory of the vessels sent to be demolished in 2007. In 2006, Robin des Bois tallied 293 vessels sold for demolition. In 2007, we listed 288 of them. If this decline in demolished vessels is modest (-2%), it is a little more significant with regard to the total weight of recycled metals: 1.7 million ton in 2007 against 1.9 million in 2006 (-10%). The situation differs however according to the category of ships considered: the number of tankers (oil tankers, chemical tankers, gas carriers) dismantled in 2007 increased by almost 30 % compared with 2006 whereas that of the bulk carriers and other general cargo ships decreased by almost 40 %; the average age of the tankers sent to demolition is 29 years, the average age for all the vessels is 31 years, the average age of bulk carriers 34 years. Of the 288 vessels, 95 (33 %) were under a European flag or belonged to ship-owners established in the European Union or members of the European Association of Free Exchange (EFTA) or members of the principalities like Monaco. Not one of the international exchanges linking these European ship-owners to non-European demolition sites were preceded by any asbestos removal.

Arcus acquires strategic brands Ratos’s subsidiary Arcus has concluded an agreement with Pernod Ricard to acquire the brands Grönstedts Cognac, Star Gin, Red Port and Dry Anis. Arcus Gruppen is Norway’s leading wine and spirits supplier. The company was formed in 1996 on the initiative of the Norwegian government and privatised in 2001. The group’s best-known brands include Linie Aquavit, Braastad Cognac, Vikingfjord Vodka, Hammer Gin and Upper Ten Whisky. The Swedish wine agency Vingruppen was acquired at the end of 2006. The number of employees is approximately 460. “Acquisition of these four brands will give Arcus Gruppen a stronger presence in Sweden as well as an opportunity to grow in Finland. The deal will also generate significant synergy gains in the Norwegian product portfolio,” says Arcus Gruppen’s CEO Jan Tore Føsund. The four brands are market leaders in their respective product areas and had combined sales of approximately SEK 54m in 2007. The deal will provide Arcus Gruppen with significant additional earnings. “It is positive that Arcus has this opportunity to acquire these four strategic brands which fit in very well with our efforts to build a Nordic platform within wine and spirits,” says Leif Johansson, Investment Director Ratos.
