Role of the MPA
11. Yesterday
Today
Tomorrow?
Cost Savings = Survival
• Financial instability has pushed carriers to build larger vessels in an effort to create
economies of scale and lower per container costs
• New construction has outpaced demand and deployment cannot wait for Panama
Canal
• Major new alliances have formed to better utilize capacity and capture cost savings

Suez Canal
• Connects Mediterranean and Red Seas.
• Average transit is 12 to 16 hours.
• 120 miles long, 66 feet deep.
• Can handle vessels with capacity
approaching 20,000 TEUs.
• In 2013, over 16,000 vessels transited the
Canal, generating in excess of $5 Billion
USD in tolls.
• “New Suez” Canal began construction in
August 2014 and projected to cost $8.4
Billion USD. It will increase draft to 90’
and allow for two-way vessel traffic.
Estimated completion date is 1 to 3 years.

27. Journal of Commerce
2014 Port Productivity Rankings
Methodology & inputs:
Utilizes 7 key data points
Over 125,000 global ship calls
483 terminals
771 ports
Definition:
Berth productivity – average gross moves per hour divided by the total time
vessel is alongside (actual arrival & departure times of ship at berth)
* Annual Special Report from the JOC – 6/09/15 *
Baltimore is the only U.S. port ranked at the top of all 3 major categories
