SEACOR Island Lines (SIL) has been taken over by King Ocean Services Ltd, one of its main competitors in the US-Caribbean/Central America trade.

Grupo Mexico Transportes (GMXT), which is Mexico’s largest rail company, has bought 60% of Golfo de Mexico Rail Ferry Holdings, LLC and Rail Ferry Vessel Holdings, and also acquired SEACOR Holdings’ shares in GC Railway LLC, (GCR).

Norddeutsche Wasserweg Logistik (NWL – North German Waterways Logistics), a PPP in which Rhenus Group is a shareholder, together with the Weser Business Association, have proposed a regular inland navigation service to move containers between the ports of Hamburg, Bremerhaven and Bremen.

At last month’s Transport Logistic fair in Munich, Rhenus Group and its trimodal logistics affiliate Contargo presented their concepts for a new fleet of low-emissions inland waterway vessels on the Rhine. Two push-barge combinations, each comprising one motorised vessel and as many as three barges, are under development.

HGK Dry Shipping, part of Hafen und Güterverkehr Köln AG, and food group ADM (Archer-Daniels-Midland) have signed a charter agreement for what they described as a ‘ground-breaking’ inland waterway vessel.

HGK Shipping is joining the Green Award certification programme, which provides environment-friendly solutions for inland waterway vessels.
