WEEK 14 OF 2021

 

A WORD FROM ALL WORLD SHIPPING

3,591 AWS Agents in 162 Countries

JERRY & ROSS SAY GOOD-BYE  

Dear AWS Agent, 

 

Since January 2007 Jerry DeBow and I have shared responsibility for All World Shipping. We have gratifyingly watched our activity grow and the number of AWS agents increase ten-fold. We have developed excellent business partnerships and made some life-long friends. So it is not without some sadness that we announce that Jerry and I will be retiring from All World Shipping effective March 31st. All good things come to an end!

While Jerry and I are leaving, AWS is certainly not disappearing. In the next few days, AWS and WCA will be making an announcement regarding the new management of AWS.  Importantly, Tipwipa P. (Tip) in Thailand and Lisa Green in the U.S. remain in place and will continue to provide their usual excellent customer support.

Jerry and I want to thank WCA management and all of the staff for their support and friendship over the past fourteen years. We want to especially say thank you to David Yokeum whose guidance and support has been indispensable. We could not have accomplished what we have without David and it certainly would not have been as much fun!

Under different circumstances, Jerry and I would have said our good-byes personally at a WCA Conference but in these challenging times of only virtual meetings that hasn’t been possible. With luck maybe we will see you at a WCA Conference in the future!

 

Sincerely, 

Ross Stemmler
President and COO
All World Shipping Corp.

EVERGREEN: EVER GIVEN Successfully Refloated Normal Transits of Suez Canal Resume

 

Evergreen Line is pleased to confirm that EVER GIVEN has been successfully refloated within the Suez Canal at approximately 15:04 March 29 local time (21:04 Taipei time). In order for the Canal to resume normal operation, the vessel is leaving the grounding site with assistance of tugboats.

 

The chartered vessel will be repositioned to the Great Bitter Lake in the Canal for an inspection of its seaworthiness. The outcome of that inspection will determine whether the ship can resume its scheduled service. Once the inspection is finalized, decisions will be made regarding arrangements for cargo currently on board.

Top of the page

Evergreen will coordinate with the shipowner to deal with subsequent matters after the shipowner and other concerned parties complete investigation reports into the incident. EVER GIVEN is a 20,000 TEU-class container ship, currently leased by Evergreen Marine Corp. under a time charter agreement. The ship is deployed on a Far East-Europe service route.

Hapag-Lloyd: North America – Operational Updates

With the large number of congested ports and ships awaiting berths, please understand that the dates for arrivals / departures and cut-offs are constantly changing. Please check our Online Business section regularly for updates on this information.

Terminal Operations:

LAX/LGB Terminal Update:
There are currently 24 ships (-2 from March 15th update) at anchor awaiting berths in LAX/LGB as of Friday March 26th. All terminals continue to suffer from severe congestion due to the spike in import volumes. Changes of destination (COD's) and container "dig outs" are restricted due to limited terminal space. Customers are urged to continue to expedite the pickup of import containers and inform any COD requests at least four days before the start of vessel operations. While all the port employees have started to be vaccinated, the terminals continue to work with limited labor and split shifts (COVID-19 related). The demand for available labor affects all terminals turnaround time for truckers, inter terminal transfers, the number of daily appointments available for gate transactions and generates delays in vessels operations.

Due to terminal congestion, there can be switching of vessel terminal assignments. This must be kept in mind if doing overweight bookings that are supposed to be going on dock but end up in the wrong terminal or the UP off dock terminal. Hapag-Lloyd is currently shut out at all terminals facing extremely limited single empty return options and restricted dual transactions. Trucking continues to be heavily delayed due to lack of trucking power - generated by terminal congestion and COVID-19 - on all door and ramp intermodal moves.

Top of the page

The UP rail has limited the access to many US inland ramps due to capacity constraints and railcar shortages. This has created a serious backlog in all the on/off dock rail services ex SoCal to all main destinations and is generating delays of more than a week into some inland ramps.

Oakland Terminal Update:
Currently 12 ships (-7) at anchor or drifting in the San Francisco Bay area as of Friday March 26th. One of five berths at OICT remains unavailable due to new crane deployment. It is expected to be available beginning of May.
Labor demand remains high in the port due to increased imports and vessels diverting to Oakland as first port of call. Yard rehandling and restows on vessels due to change of rotation and additional empty lift out of LAX/LGB is creating further delays. Export receiving is strictly controlled causing pain points for truckers, however this is mainly due to vessel schedule integrity. All berths remain occupied.

New York Terminal Update:
Berth congestion is not currently an issue. Dwell times for import volumes continue to be higher than normal running at about an average of 6 days versus the normal average dwell of 4 days.
Empty container stocks continue on higher side as receiving restrictions at depots and terminals are impacting equipment flows and returns. Empty loader vessels are being employed wherever possible to evacuate surplus inventory.
Gate turn times for truckers continue to be above normal for all terminals and depots, and the port area is periodically impacted by traffic that exceeds on-facility ques and congests local roadways.

Savannah Terminal Update
Currently 10 ships (-10) at anchor as of March 26th. The river has not been closed due to fog in the last week reducing the number of ships at anchor. Wide bean vessels lead to scheduling conflicts and additional coordination with one vessel in the river at a time.

Labor has improved during last week as well. Exports remain two ships open at any given time per service. Empties are a main focus in getting off the port – whether by ship or rail.

Canadian Terminal and Rail Delays Update:

Terminals:

High yard utilization at all terminals in Vancouver as a result of high import volumes. Expected to last well into Q2. Vessel productivity and yard productivity continue to improve as a result of steady rail car supply. This resulted in increased fluidity on terminal. We continue to experience berth delays in VAN of 3 to 8 days. Prince Rupert continues to be a struggle as well.

Dwell time at the Port Terminals:

· Halifax – 3.5 Days*

· Montreal – 4.7 Days*

· Vancouver – 2.8 Days

· Prince Rupert – 3.0 Days*

 

Rail:
Car supply into Vancouver has improved and import dwells remain below average.

Dwell time at the Rail Terminals:

· Montreal – 3.5 Days*

· Vancouver – 1.2 Days*

 

Intermodal Operations:

Capacity limitation in certain markets due to import volume spikes and severe drivers’ shortage. Please find main markets, and estimate lead-time to secure capacity below (Note: Lead time refers to timeframe to secure truck power, it is not dwell time):

Chassis Pools:

Current chassis pool operations are improving in many markets. Below are the current locations where chassis inventory remains a concern. Shippers are urged to return containers to help improve the availability. Over 5000 chassis have been injected into various chassis pools across the US to keep up with the influx of imports. Repair vendors are working overtime and weekends to keep up with the requirements to provide safe and reliable assets.

· New York (USNYC) – Deficit on 40’ chassis due to surging demand and street dwell.

· Philadelphia (USPHL) – Constrained on 40’ chassis due to high demand.

· Chicago (USCHI) – Constrained on 20’ chassis, deficit on 40’ chassis due to surge in demand.

· Detroit (USDET) – Deficit on 40’/45’ chassis due to demand and street dwells.

· Dallas (USDAL) – Deficit on 40’ chassis due to demand.

· Kansas City (USMKC) – Constrained on 20’ chassis due to high demand and street dwell.

· Oakland (USOAK) – Constrained on 40’ chassis due to surge in demand.

MSC: MSC Enhances its Transpacific U.S. East Coast Network

MSC announces the launch of a new weekly service during May, the Palmetto, from Asia to U.S. East Coast.

MSC: MSC Bolsters Trade Between Southeast Asia and U.S. West Coast with New Sentosa Service

MSC is introducing a new container shipping service between southeast Asia and the U.S. west coast.

The new Sentosa service is to link southeast Asia with the Pacific South West market and to catalyse trade between countries such as Thailand and Vietnam and the U.S. west coast.

It should enable a significantly improved transit time for MSC customers shipping goods between southeast Asia and California, ensuring that MSC retains a direct Laem Chabang – Long Beach call (in both directions) within its transpacific network. This compensates for the removal of a Laem Chabang – U.S. call on the Jaguar service, which is being announced separately.

This service is expected to start in early April with the MSC ORNELLA and its rotation will be as follows:
Singapore – Tanjung Pelepas – Laem Chabang – Vung Tau – Long Beach – Shanghai – Ningbo – Xiamen – Singapore
