PR Log (Press Release) –
Dec 07, 2009 – BMI is proud to launch the Argentina Shipping Report for Q309. BMI launches its latest addition to its shipping report portfolio at a time of severe downturn in the global shipping sector. Container lines are releasing dismal Q109 results and announcing cost cutting strategies to try and protect their bottom lines. The bulk dry sector has been yo-yoing, with the Baltic Dry Index recording declines followed by increases. One thing is for sure, and that is that the highs of 2008 will not be replicated in 2009, as demand for raw materials, such as iron ore (the major dry bulk commodity), drops globally. The liquid bulk sector is seeing a similar decline as both oil and chemical demand slips. The main factor keeping the liquid sector afloat is the use of very large crude carriers (VLCCs) for storage. In this climate of uncertainty BMI offers an in-depth overview of the Argentine shipping market, focusing on emerging risks and where we expect to see recovery. BMI believes that the global downturn in shipping that took hold in Q408 and has persisted into 2009 looks set to continue. A recovery is not set to begin until the second half of 2010. This can be seen in our forecasts for the Argentine shipping sector, for which we have used measurements of throughput at the country's main port, Buenos Aires. We believe that total throughput at the port will decline by 9.8%, to 11.5mn tonnes, in 2009. BMI forecasts a decline of 8.27% to 1.09mn twenty-feet equivalent units (TEUs) at the port's container facilities. A recovery is set to begin in 2010. But we warn that Buenos Aires will not be able to recapture its pre-downturn volumes until 2012. BMI's Argentina Shipping Report includes offers data on port throughput from previous years, which has been used along with our forecasts for the country's imports and exports to predict throughput trends for the next five years (2009-2013). Detailed analysis explains the assumptions behind these forecasts. The BMI Argentina Shipping Report offers in-depth analysis into the three main shipping sectors: container, dry bulk and liquid bulk. We also detail the strategy that major shipping companies in these sectors have implemented to protect themselves against the global economic downturn. We also analyse other tactics that we believe operators in these sectors could use over 2009, as trade continues to contract. The report offers an overview of the ports of Buenos Aires and Bahía Blanca, with analysis of the ports' facilities, expansions and developments that are already under way or are planned, as well as details of multi-modal links from the ports to the rest of the country's transport network. Finally, the Argentina Shipping Report has an in-depth overview of 11 of the main global shipping companies (China Shipping, CMA CGM, COSCO, Evergreen, Hanjin, Hapag Lloyd, Maersk, MOL, MSC, NOL, and NYK). BMI analyses the firms' financial statistics, their strategies for managing the downturn and their most recent activity.

Study: Bahrain Shipping to see steady recovery beginning in 2010
PR Log (Press Release) –
Dec 07, 2009 – The major developments within Bahrain's maritime sector over the last quarter have been dominated by the news of the opening of the country's new Khalifa bin Salman Port (KBSP), also known as the Bahrain Gateway, on April 1 2009. The port is part of APM Terminal's Middle East portfolio. The port's launch of operations marks the retirement of Bahrain's Mina Salman port, which will transfer its operations to the KBSP. The KBSP catered for its first vessel on April 15 2009, when APL's 2,500-TEU Dalian pulled into the port on its SRX service. The transfer of operations from Mina Salman to the KBSP is progressing, with Eye For Transport reporting on April 23 2009 that all container operations at Mina Salman had ceased and were now being undertaken at the KBSP. BMI has no information on when other cargo operations at the port of Mina Salman are to finish, but believes it will be before the end of 2009. Based on this assumption, BMI has revised its forecasts for throughput at Bahrain's ports in 2009. Container throughput has now been revised down to 0 for 2009 and for the rest of the mid term, as the port has now been taken out of service. This means all containers will now pass through KBSP and we estimate that the throughput for 2009 will be 259,489 TEUs. This is a decrease on the throughput figure registered by Mina Salman in 2008 (269,331 TEUs) and is a reflection of the impact that BMI expects the economic downturn will have on Bahrain's port sector. We believe that with Mina Salman's throughput being removed, KBSP will handle 427.6mn tonnes in 2009. This is a decrease on the 442mn tonnes Mina Salman catered for in 2008 and the decline can be attributed to the global downturn in trade, which will not leave Bahrain's trade sector unscathed. BMI forecasts that a steady recovery in throughput will begin in 2010, with tonnage volumes passing through the port expected to increase by 2.4% to 437.8mn tonnes. BMI believes average growth between 2011 and 2013 will remain steady at 2.4%, allowing the KBSP to handle an estimated 469,758mn tonnes in 2013. As well as an in-depth analysis of Bahrain's shipping sector, the Q309 Bahrain Shipping Report also offers a global overview of the dry bulk, liquid bulk and container sectors and overviews of the 11 largest shipping lines and their strategies over the quarter to weather the downturn in trade volumes.

PR Log (Press Release) –
Dec 04, 2009 – Accuform Signs, North America’s leading provider of facility safety identification products, introduced its “No Texting While Driving” signs and labels on the heels of the National Safety Council’s 2009 Congress and Expo, where “Distracted Driving” was, by far, the number one safety issue.
To meet the need for proper identification measures Accuform Signs has introduced “No Texting” signs for highway, school and workplace use (among other locations). Additionally, Accuform Signs now offers a line of “No Texting” labels that are ideal for placement in company vehicles, rental cars and on the backs of company-issued mobile devices.
In January, NSC became the first national organization to call for a total ban on vehicular cell-phone use, based on scientific estimates that cell-phone use while driving contributes to:
• 6 percent of crashes, or 636,000 crashes
• 330,000 injuries, 12,000 serious injuries
• 2,600 deaths each year
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, who tracks state laws for cell-phone and text usage, reports that:
• Seven states have completely banned cell-phone use completely
• 16 states have completely banned cell-phone use for bus drivers
• 17 states have completely banned texting while driving
David Johnson, President of Accuform added, “Helping to save the lives of employees, their families and people throughout the nation is a reflection on the values of our company.”
