Thanks ! Holland America Line was founded in 1873 as the Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Stoomvaart Maatschappij Netherlands-America Steamship Company), a shipping and passenger line. It was headquartered in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and provided service to the Americas. The company was formed as a result of the reorganization of an Distribution : daily to 28700+ active addresses 04-03-2014 Page 5 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2014 – 063 earlier company, Plate, Reuchlin & Co. The company's first ship was the original Rotterdam, which sailed its 15-day maiden voyage from the Netherlands to New York City on October 15, 1872. Other services were started to other new world ports, including Hoboken, Baltimore and South America. Cargo service to New York started in 1899. During the first 25 years the company carried 400,000 people from Europe to the Americas. Other North American ports were added during the early 20th century. Though transportation and shipping were the primary sources of revenue, in 1895 HAL offered its first vacation cruise. Its second vacation cruise, from New York to Israel, was first offered in 1910. One notable ship was the elegant 36,000 gross ton SS Nieuw Amsterdam of 1937, it and the RMS Queen Mary being the only two liners built in the 1930s to make a profit. At the start of the Second World War, HAL had 25 ships; nine remained at war's end. At the beginning of the war, the Westernland, berthed at Falmouth, England, became the seat of the Dutch government. The Nieuw Amsterdam sailed half a million miles transporting 400,000 military personnel. After the war, the cruise line was instrumental in transporting a massive wave of immigrants from the Netherlands to Canada and elsewhere. Another notable ship during the post-war period was the SS Rotterdam of 1959, one of the first North Atlantic ships equipped for two-class transatlantic crossing and one-class luxury cruising. By the late 1960s, the golden era of transatlantic passenger ships had been ended by the introduction of air travel. HAL ended transatlantic service during the early 1970s, leaving the North Atlantic passenger trade for Cunard's RMS Queen Elizabeth 2. In 1973 it sold its cargo shipping division. It ceased operating as a Dutch line in 1989, when it was purchased by Carnival for 1.2 billion guilders. The proceeds were put into an investment company (HAL Investments), the majority of which is owned by the van der Vorm family.

According to a recent report from shipbroker Gibson, "the current abundance of fracked crude in the US has provided US refineries with an increasing supply of cheap feedstocks. US refinery net input of crude oil stood at 15.3 million b/d last week, around 875,000 b/d more than the same period last year. To accommodate recent increases in production, trade flows have shifted, and new markets for these products have been established", the shipbroker said. Gibson added that "the fronthaul transatlantic MR route has been repeatedly switching direction since mid-last year as export volumes of CPP provided the tanker market with fresh opportunities to improve earnings through triangulation.

  • Surfing the Waves: Scottish Admirals in Russia in Their Baltic Context
    Suring the Waves: Scottish Admirals in Russia in their Baltic Context Steve Murdoch It has long been established, and frequently reafirmed, that the origins of the Russian navy and her distinctive Saltire insignia can be traced back to the inal years of General Patrick Gordon in his guise as Rear Admiral of the Russian navy.1 There is no doubt that after Gordon’s participation in Russia’s irst tentative naval manoeuvres off of Archangel in 1694, and the irst real amphibious operation against Azov in 1696 (in which Gordon had reverted to a land role), the Romanov dynasty attracted a notable presence of Scottish naval oficers to their cause.2 This reached something of a crescendo during the reign of Catherine the Great. Indeed, we ind that among the oficer class in the Russian navy during the eighteenth century there were admirals of all classes, as well as ships’ captains, lieutenants and numerous other oficers and men.3 Impressive as the sheer numbers of Scottish admirals in Russian service is, there is seldom an opportunity to see them in the context of wider maritime migration. And this is crucial, for without such an overview, we could ind ourselves constructing one of those uncritical histories which might over-celebrate the importance of these men and the relevance of their migration to Russia. That is not to say that they are not to be celebrated, or indeed that they were not important. It simply reiterates the obvious historical point which requires us to take a step back and view our subject matter in a different way.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The thesis deals with the creation of a ‘public’ in St Petersburg during the first half of the eighteenth century. The term ‘public’ has generated a considerable historiography dealing with its implications for the field of eighteenth-century studies, which are discussed in the introduction along with the contemporary definitions of the word. In eighteenth-century Russia, the term ‘public’ usually carried the meaning of ‘audience’, typically in reference to the theatre and other spectacles. The definition of this and other similar terms provides an important framework through which to analyse the various elements of this phenomenon. This analysis has centred on the city of St Petersburg in this period for several reasons. Firstly, it was the seat of both the Russian government and the Court around a decade after its foundation and Peter I ensured its rapid population.

  • Environmental Planning and Management of Waterway Construction (Historical Experience of Russia in the 18Th Century and the Beginning of the 19Th Century)
    E3S Web of Conferences 91, 05023 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf /20199105023 TPACEE-2018 Environmental planning and management of waterway construction (historical experience of Russia in the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century) Milena Zolotareva1,* 1Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, 4, Vtoraja Krasnoarmejskaja str., 190005, Saint Petersburg, Russia Abstract. An interdisciplinary analysis of an ecological system of waterway includes several related environmental science fields. Environmental planning and management is an important component in the construction of waterways. The aim of the study was to analyze the legislative framework that forms the vertical of construction management of water communications in Russia. Research in this field allows us to look at current problems through the prism of the historical process, political and socio-economic reforms of society. As a result of the study, the historical experience of the development of water communication in Russia was analyzed. The base of the research was constituted by legislative standards issued in Russia in the period under review. At the same time considering the development of the legislative framework and the actual construction process, it was found that the legislative system had a direct impact on the waterway building practice. This made it possible to determine the extent of the impact of changes in state institutions and their structural components on the overall organization of management and regulation of construction and on the practice of creating a system of waterways in Russia. These studies make it possible to systematize the historical experience of the development of functional, methodological, and organizational forms of regulating the construction of water communications in the period under review.
