Hamburg box volume slips 0.1pc
Germany's Port of Hamburg container throughput fell 0.1 per cent year on year in the first nine months of 2016 to 6.7 million TEU, but the China box trade was up 0.6 per cent and increased one per cent with Asia as a whole, according to Shipping Gazette.
The overall downturn was blamed on fewer transshipments from Polish and Swedish ports, partly reflecting the success those ports were having in attracting direct calls to replace feeder services to Hamburg.
"If the port is to continue to expand and remain competitive, dredging on the Lower and Outer Elbe remains essential," said Axel Mattern, joint CEO of Port of Hamburg Marketing.

汉堡港集装箱吞吐量下滑0.1%
德国汉堡港集装箱吞吐量在2016年前九个月下降了0.1%,至670万TEU,但根据"船舶公报",中国集装箱行业增长0.6%,亚洲整体增长1% 。
汉堡集装箱整体低迷归咎于波兰和瑞典的港口转运较少,一定程度上反映了这些港口直接吸引集装箱船的成功,从而取消给汉堡港的喂给服务。
"如果港口想继续扩张和保持竞争力,在易北河下游和外围的疏浚工作仍然至关重要,"汉堡市场联合首席执行官Axel Mattern说。
