The fourth Shipping summit held at the Grand Hyatt, Mumbai on September 29 to October 01, 2008 took forward the debate on India’s future as a global maritime player, factoring in a range of issues that highlighted the role of the government; finance for Indian owners; opportunities presented by India’s gas and oil exploration programme; the growing manning crisis and the continuing challenges of delivering world class maritime infrastructure.
A.P.V.N. Sarma, Shipping Secretary, Government of India the chief guest at the conference stated that out of the 111 projects planned under the National Maritime Development Programme involving an investment of Rs 44,535 crore over a 10-year period two have so far been implemented and 39 more are nearing completion. “Expressions of interest have been invited for setting up two international size shipyards one on each coast,” he said. “The government has also relaxed the cabotage law to encourage global cruise operators to do the coastal legs without hassle. To harness the natural resources of inland waterways the government is concentrating on making the existing three National Waterways fully functional and is in the process of introducing a bill to declare three new National Waterways.”
It is the most opportune time to give a fillip to the Indian fleet, according to S. Hajara, Chairman and Managing Director of Shipping Corporation of India. “Though 100 per cent FDI is allowed in shipping, not a single dollar in investment has come in,” he pointed out. “As the Indian economy is growing and will continue to grow in the years to come the prospects for the shipping industry are really bright.”
Adding to India’s maritime success story, Rajeev Gupta, Joint Secretary, Shipping, Government of India, declared that the Indian fleet would soon be crossing the 10 million mark. Nevertheless, he was in agreement that the industry did face several hurdles including taxes, manpower shortage, etc. which came in the way of acquiring a level playing field. “To encourage more youngsters into seafaring we will make things easier so that they do not have to undergo the present tedious examination system. We are encouraging coastal shipping and with several thermal power plants coming up all over the country the need for coal imports is mind boggling. So I call upon the industry to take advantage of the growing opportunities.”
Being a small player, India’s share of ship building amounted to a mere 1% of the international ship building activity, as pointed out by Ray Stewart, CEO of Pipavav Shipyard. He underscored the fact that it was lower cost of labour that made the Japanese No. 1 in ship building in the 60s. But then Korea and China took over in the 70s. “And now it is clearly India’s turn having the upper hand to become a ship building power,” he ascertained. “By 2017 ship building will generate employment for 2.5 million people in India.”
To make it a reality he confirmed that it would be necessary for the government to reinstate the 30 per cent subsidy on ship building that was introduced in 2001, but was discontinued on August 14, 2007. “What is most peculiar is that there are no measures to encourage Indian ship owners to place orders with Indian ship yards. It actually turns out to be much more expensive for them to get their ships built here,” Mr. Stewart deplored.
"We need out-of-the-box thinking to develop maritime infrastructure in the country, otherwise the demand-supply gap will remain," pointed out Arvind Bhatnagar, CEO of Gateway Terminals India. Formulation of new PPP models, availability of loans at special rates, tax benefits for infrastructure developers and reduced Customs duty on equipment imports were some of the initiatives/incentives that could be considered, he observed.
“The need of the hour for ensuring that ship building activity moves on to a higher trajectory is by ensuring an integrated maritime plan with government support for encouraging Indian ship owners to place orders with Indian shipyards and to encourage indigenous marine ancillary equipment industry,” said Mr. Stewart.
"We need to educate the people in Delhi about what shipbuilding is,” stated Vijay Kumar, Director of Bharati Shipyard. “It was only in 2002 that the private sector was given any kind of support by the government. There are huge investment opportunities out there that will give massive returns in a very few years. But official support is crucial to get these off the ground. The government can earn back what it gives, besides gaining colossal profits within 20 years. This industry has lots to offer. It’s time everyone saw this."
In summation, Rajneesh Gupta, Director – Ship building, Department of Shipping, Union Ministry of Shipping speaking on behalf of the government stated, “We need to interact constantly between both the private and public sectors. I don’t see anyone interacting with the government at any level not even with us or the ministry of finance. If you want to bring in changes you’ve got to interact, make presentations and disseminate information at different levels of the ministries. Policy makers need to be upgraded. Why wait for Seatrade Summits to take place to speak your minds?”

Getting set for the mega container traffic growth
Mr. S.S. Hussain, Chairman, Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) flagged off the 3rd Southern Asia Ports, Logistics and Shipping 2008 India conference and exhibition at Hotel Leela Kempinski on September 23 and 24, 2008. It brought together a much larger number of participants and exhibitors than the earlier events. Organised by Transport Events the occasion served as a purposeful forum to present the up-to-date global container transportation scenario and its impact on shipping and trade.
In his keynote address Mr. Hussain contended that the port sector has been identified as the prime catalyst to accelerate the process of industrialization, international trade and economic progress. Port development and economic development are mutually related. On the one hand economic development necessitates port development as a part of infrastructure development and on the other, port development itself facilitates import-export and attracts industries to its hinterland, which, in turn, create forward and backward linkages with the rest of the economy.
The growth of containerisation in India which is seeing a strong surge at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17 per cent - more than double the world average – was likely to see a throughput projected at 21 million TEUs by 2015.
In order to sustain future container freight demands to keep up with the economic growth the port sector is faced with various challenges particularly regarding container infrastructure development. However, there exists an oasis of hope in the person of K. Suresh, chairman, Chennai Port Trust, who has plans to transform Chennai port into a major container hub as it has the country’s longest keel length of 2 km; lies in the trade route; enjoys a 17 mtrs draft in the approach channel which can accommodate vessels of over 150,000 DWT; and has already invested heavily in developing road connectivity between the port and the national highway.
Sabyasachi Hajara, chairman and managing director of Shipping Corporation of India, showed the light at the end of the tunnel concerning container growth. He pointed out that the container shipping sizes were exploding and container traffic would grow at an incredible pace. He felt that there was nothing to deter future growth as the fundamentals are strong. JNPT and Chennai today jointly handle 77% of India’s container traffic. As far as connectivity was concerned, India has the second largest road network of 3.83 million km (behind USA but ahead of China). Besides, the railway network is the 4th largest in the world at 63,465 km which is behind that of the USA which is currently having a network covering 2,26,612 km.
As in other countries, he desired that there should be just one ministry for controlling container trade in India in place of the present six to seven ministries. “More participation by Indian shipping lines in container trade would help to bring down the freight cost thus making exports cheaper,” he contended.
According to Hemant Joshi, md of CRISIL Risk & Infrastructure Solutions Ltd., “Projects often suffer setbacks because of improper planning and non-availability of sufficient land. Proper feasibility is not undertaken. Evaluation parameters should be anchored in realities.”
On the finance side, Vishal Sharma of Tuscan Ventures gave an insight into the ‘Private equity in shipping, transportation and logistics in India’. He explained that there was not enough money within the companies for capex growth and debts are becoming more expensive. “There will be more and more private equity investing in this sector. The good news is that both financial investors and strategic investors are investing.”
“Currently, investments were skewed towards developing ports and roads transportation is a preferred mode for domestic goods,” observed Poul V. Jensen, managing director of TransCare Logistics India Pvt. Ltd. “Decision makers in the Indian logistics industry have to look at the supply chain holistically and not in isolation. Hinterlands connections (road / rail) need to be ramped up at the same rate as the Indian ports that are developing. Logistics infrastructure investments (ICDs, FTWZs, etc) must be planned for strategic locations and targeted for common usage and the government needs to revisit its tax policies and outdated laws.”
On a different note Tony Chiu, International sales director, Asia Vision, Hong Kong advocated the use of Vecon OCR solutions as these provide automatic recognition of container ID numbers, chassis numbers and ISO codes of various sizes of containers with world-class accuracy. “They facilitate and enhance effective port and terminal management at the gate, yard, quay as well as operations of quay crane and spreader in the loading and unloading zones,” he said.
In order to factor in a competitive advantage in port and terminal operations Colin P. Fordham, managing director, Thomas Miller South East Asia, Singapore, considered training, re-designing and improved operational procedures to take care of the human error element which constitute 72% of the causes for accidents.
In his presentation on ‘Building a Competitive Advantage in Port & Terminal Operations’, Philip Littlejohn, managing director - Gujarat Pipavav Port Limited cautioned that time was running out. He advised that innovation and technologically advanced terminals be allowed to improve capacity and also create safer, more secure, and environmentally friendly terminals. “We are all in business, but the environment is everyone’s business, and this should be a focus area. Terminal safety is not a luxury, it is a responsibility. Rail and Road capacity needs to be enhanced in order to provide adequate support to the growing volumes being handled by ports and te minals.”
Presenting a case study Arvind Bhatnagar, CEO of GTI said it is the superior technology and a structured facility that helped to make Gateway Terminals India (GTI) a leading and efficient terminal. The feature that has helped the terminal to acquire a win-win situation was logical segregation pre-advise of local empty containers at central gate; error free and paperless data exchange through web access; integration of terminal; operating system & ERP modules – Navis & IFS Capacity augmentation through expansion; & stretching targets high to world class training & development, etc.
From the deliberations at the conference it was established that India is well set to meet the challenges of a mega container traffic growth. The private players in the field are all set to seize the opportunities of the growing boom. The industry is well on its way to witness a welcome transformation.

OESM Seminar up-grades Ratings on Safety
Fully committed to providing a career path for its ratings, Orient Express Ship Management (OESM) once again conducted a one-day ‘Safety Training Seminar’ for its crew members. Unlike other ship manning companies, this is the 3rd time in succession that OESM has organized such an event exclusively for ratings in a luxuriant and lush environment of 'Hotel Oasis' at Chembur on September 26, 2008.
It is a known fact that OESM has always encouraged and motivated ratings to become officers. In fact more than a dozen such candidates have already become officers and are now proudly sailing on OESM vessels as Deck Officers. These and other measure the company has embarked on clearly indicates that OESM is totally devoted to promoting the cause of their floating staff.
Welcoming the various participants to the seminar Capt. S S Gokhale (Marine Superintendent -Training), informed, "With a gathering such as this, a forum has been created so that the superintendents and ratings can have an open dialogue and enjoy a special bonding''.
Capt. Milind Patankar, Chief Operating Officer of the company, declared the seminar open and welcomed the crew to high light all areas requiring development without fear, and treat this platform of seminar absolutely neutral.
Narrating the pioneering role of the Transworld group Mr. Mark Gardener, Manager- Fleet Personnel, highlighted the achievements of the Group, from their humble beginning to being a leading player in shipping activities and specialist in feeder trade.
Exhorting the crew on maintaining a high standard in housekeeping, Mr. Subrat Mukherjee, GM - Fleet Personnel, gave an effective presentation on the subject of ‘Leakages in the engine room, on deck as well as the accommodation areas’. “However small the leak it could lead to big mess and result in personnel suffering injuries besides making the vessel a soft target for post state control and flag state inspectors,” he said. His illustrations aptly cited the various incidents.
Mr. Pawan Kapoor, Director, ISF Maritime Services –Training, touched upon many aspects of ‘Interpersonal relationship, relating to safety on board’. He enhanced the value of his presentation by making the session interactive using realistic case studies.
Capt S S Gokhale spoke on the importance of cargo lashing checks. This he said was essential considering the various risks that are encountered especially when the vessel is sailing.
The presentation on ‘Communication’ by Mr. Suman Jha, Gen. Manager, Corporate HRD of TRANSWORLD Group, turned out to be very impressive and lively. He used interesting simile and employed the game technique to drive home his point. Every one participated in the exercise, especially the young cadets who thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
This was followed by a lively 'question & answer' session. As a token of appreciation Capt. Gokhale handed mementos and certificates to all participants.
The seminar ended with Mr. Mukherjee thanking the ratings and the deck cadets for their active participation.

Port of Marseille signs sister port agreement with MbPT
The Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT) and the Port of Marseille Authority (PMA) signed a sister port agreement on September 30, 2008 in Mumbai to foster experience-sharing in the areas of engineering, management, security, city - port relations and sustainable development. The agreement pledges to promote mutual trade and development between the two ports.
The agreement was signed by Rahul Asthana, Chairman of the MbPT and Jean-Claude Terrier, Managing Director of the PAM, in the presence of Rakesh Shrivastava, Joint Secretary (Ports) of the Indian Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways and Mr François Pujolas, French Consul General and Head of the Economic Mission in India.
With the signing of the agreement a significant rise in traffic is expected in the near future between Mumbai Port - the numero uno port in India which handles break-bulk, over-dimensional and project cargoes, motor vehicles, liquid bulk cargoes and passenger traffic and Marseille Port the leading port in France and the Mediterranean and the third oil port in the world.
The sister port agreement is a clear indication of the Indian market’s interest in Marseille-Fos port, the only general cargo port in southern Europe to boast such wide-ranging facilities. The port is fully equipped to cater to containers, automobile logistics and petroleum products. For each of these activities, the port offers large-capacity terminals, sites available for the development of logistics and storage activities, and a variety of goods dispatching networks (maritime, inland waterways, rail and pipelines). Marseille Fos port can satisfy the requirements of Indian companies looking to establish efficient connections with the European and North African markets.
Maritime trade between Marseille Fos port and MbPT has been limited to 60,000 tonnes, including miscellaneous goods, liquid bulk and dry bulk. However, in the light of the sister port agreement with Mumbai port, growing trade contacts and the dynamic status of the Indian economy, a significant rise in traffic is expected in the near future.
Regarding it as a momentous day in the history of MbPT, Mr Asthana said, “We feel privileged to enter into the Sister Port Agreement with the Port of Marseille Authority, which like Mumbai Port, the Port of Marseille Authority is a public authority with its own corporate status and financial independence.”
He informed that over the last five years, the volume of traffic handled at Mumbai Port has more than doubled to surpass 57 million tonnes during 2007-08. MbPT has drawn up an ambitious Business Plan, in consultation with the KPMG consortium, and embarked upon a massive programme of modernization and doubling the handling capacity in all the spheres of its operations. Thus, the Offshore Container Terminal Project, re-development of Harbour Wall Berths and the second liquid chemical jetty is expected to be commissioned by 2010-2011. By 2012-13, the Port plans to commission the fifth oil berth as well as a new, modern cruise terminal.
Describing Marseille-Fos as Europe’s gateway for trade with the rest of the world, Mr Terrier stressed that the two ports had much to offer each other. "The sister port agreement will pave the way for a new era of cooperation between the two ports as well as with the two countries", he emphasized. PMA’s hinterland comprises South Europe: Spain, Italy, South Germany, Switzerland, the Mediterranean countries of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco and the West Coast of Africa. The port can be a hub for all these regions.
Marseille Fos Port Authority is the leading port in France and the Mediterranean and third oil port worldwide. As a multi-commodity port it handles various types of traffic including crude oil and oil products (oil, gas and chemical products), general cargo (containers and other packaging), dry bulk (minerals and cereals) and liquid bulk (chemicals and food).The Port also caters to passenger traffic from cruises and regular shipping lines to Corsica and North Africa.
Being a City Port like Mumbai Port, the Port of Marseille Authority has to handle city-port issues similar to the ones we confront and strive for synergy by recognizing that the Port development projects offer potential for the creation of added value for the city, and similarly, that the city development projects open newer horizons for the Port to give added value to the activities at the Port.
PMA is particularly honoured to have concluded this partnership with one of the most influential ports on the Indian continent. MbPT handles annual traffic of 35.14 million tonnes. Traffic between PMA and India last year was almost 300,000 tonnes, including 176,000 t of miscellaneous goods, 60,000 tonnes of liquid bulk and 53,000 tonnes of dry bulk. Almost 20% of this trade is conducted by Mumbai port.
