Drip Capital Webinar Presentation on - Shipping formalities, procedures & do...Rashmi Rajwani
The shipping industry’s ability to offer economical and efficient long-distance transport has placed the sector at the center of the world economy. Billion tons of goods and materials are ferried via ship each year from one destination to another for its consumption.
Although shipping is regarded as a convenient mode of transportation, exporters must grasp the numerous procedures and formalities associated with it for smooth day-to-day operations. To understand it all and simplify the hurdles in the shipping process, Drip Capital, in association with Mr. Hemant Kulkarni, organized this webinar

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

3. Arctic Routes
• How safe is it?
• What advantages will it
bring?
• What sectors are set to
benefit from it?
• How soon can I use it?
• Can it be an alternative
to Suez?
5. Ice Capable Container Ships
• Relatively few in number
• Maersk currently in the ‘lead’
• Total TEU numbers quite low
• Currently only 15% of container
fleet are ice capable
• Only 1% of new orders are for
ice capable ships
6. LNG Demand
• LNG demand
forecasted to grow
strongly
• Asia stands to be
largest importing
region
• Top five Asian
economics have
huge appetite for
LNG
• China and Japan
fuelling imports
7. Ice Capable LNG Tankers
• Relatively small percentage
of current fleet- 29 out of 375
• Also small percentage of
orderbook- 10 out of 88
• Japan and Norway has
largest % of tankers
• Russia leading the way with
new orders
• Delivery of Veliky Novogorod
in Jan 2014
• Aim to dominate Arctic LNG
transport
8. Icebreakers
• Critical for navigating NSR,
even during summer months
• Russia holds near monopoly
• US and Canada lagging in
icebreaker capabilities
• Atomflot- six icebreakers
available for escort duties
• Others mainly used in Arctic
ports
• New icebreaker LK60 class
in build- in service by 2017
9. Alternative to Suez?
• Total Suez transits in 2013
were not impacted
• More than 16,000 ships
transited the canal in 2013
• Vital to Egyptian economy
• Military will not allow it to be
threatened
• Current volumes in NSR
nowhere near Suez
• Will remain vital for
international shipping for the
indefinite future

• 16th Mechanized Division
• 18th Mechanized Division
• 2 x Divisions in reserve

10. Regulatory Bottlenecks
• Varying classifications for ice
capable ships
• NSR uses Russian class
• Non-standardisation • Polar Code- 2015
• International Maritime
Organisation
11. Safety Concerns
• Few assets, overstretched if traffic increases
• Icebreakers have to maintain escort as well as SAR duties
• Few aircraft assets in region
• 10 new SAR centres due to open in 2015
12. Arctic Shipping Routes
• With shrinking ice coverage in Arctic,
the seaways is opening up
• The “Northern Sea Route” (NSR)
and “Northwest Passage” (NWP)
are navigable during the summer
months
• A further “Central” corridor is
envisioned to have opened up by
2040
13. 2013 Ice Coverage
• Ice coverage in the Artic is annually at
its greatest extent in February and least
in September
• Navigation season for the NSR is late
June to September
• In recent years Artic Warming has made
most difference to extent of ice in
summer
Ice Extent in February 2013
• In 2012 the NSR was considered
ice free from August 2012
• In 2013 the summer minima was
29% higher than predicted
• Ice breakers were still required for
vessels passing North of the East
Siberian island throughout the
season

Two incidents in particular during the 2013 Navigation season illustrated the scarcity of assets available and the difficulties encountered in reacting quickly to emergencies in the Polar Regions
The holing of the tanker Russian Flag Tanker Nordvik in the Matisen Strait on September 4
Vessel was Ice Class 1 and carrying a cargo of 4,944 tons of Diesel fuel when she struck ice and received a 1m hole in ballast tank
Vessel was operating at the time in medium ice conditions which exceeded her permitted conditions from NSR administration for independent navigation
The Icebreaker Taimyr did not reach the scene of the incident for five days (9th September)
The tanker Boris Vilkitsky arrived two days later and transhipped the oil (11th September)
A further icebreaker the Vaigach joined to get the two tankers into ice free waters which was achieved by the 14th September
On this occasion no oil was spilt however the incident shows the potential delay which could be experienced in responding to any future pollution incident
The loss of the helicopter from the CCGS Amundsen
On the 9th September the helicopter from the CCGS Amundsen ditched in sea while on ice reconnaissance in the McClure Strait
Pilot and passengers all apparently survived the initial ditching and were dressed in survival suits however the ship was unable to reach scene in time to save their lives.
Passengers included the Captain of the Amundsen which as a result was ordered to return to harbour.
This single incident removed the only effective search and rescue asset in this particular section of the North West passage.
