conglomerate, has launched a door-to-door shipping service

small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the automotive spare

sectors, Milaha would use its own marine transport assets and
logistics infrastructure to fulfill the service, its spokesman said.
The frequency of the service would initially be a weekly, and it
will allow customers to track their cargo online from point of
origin to destination. The service is part of the company’s
strategy to be a one-stop shop for its partners’ shipping and
logistics requirements. (Gulf-Times.com)
 RasGas records 5,000th cargo delivery from Helium-2 plant in
Doha – RasGas Company has recorded the 5,000th cargo

resource. Helium-2 became the world’s largest helium
purification and liquefaction unit upon its startup in July 2013
and reached 100% annual production capacity of 1,570mn
standard cubic feet, less than a year later. The Helium-2
production currently stands at more than 1,400 cargoes per

 RWE sees its LNG business growing with benefit of Qatar deal –
RWE plans to expand its liquefied natural gas business by
making the most of its supply contract with Qatar to meet
Europe’s growing dependency on fuel imports. RWE Supply &
Trading physically delivered 2.5mn tons of LNG last year –
equivalent to almost four days of global demand, mainly to the
Middle East and Asia, Andree Stracke, Chief Commercial Officer
at the German utility’s trading unit, said in an interview at the
Flame gas conference in Amsterdam last week. Last year, it
signed a 7 1/2-year flexible contract with Qatargas to deliver
1.1mn tons of LNG a year to northwest Europe. “We will see a
cargo coming in the next days and we are pretty confident that
Qatargas has a high interest to deliver more volumes to Europe
in the years to come. I strongly believe there are opportunities
beyond this contract,” Stracke said. Qatar is the biggest supplier
of LNG to Europe, which gets most of its gas through pipelines
from Russia and Norway. As the region’s domestic gas output
declines and demand emerges for power generation, new
suppliers such as the US are seeking to enter the market. (Gulf-

International
 China April factory output, investment growth miss forecasts –
China's factory output and fixed asset investment growth
cooled more than expected in April, adding to signs that
momentum in the world's second-biggest economy is slowing
from a strong start in the first quarter. Factory output rose 6.5%
YoY in April, while fixed-asset investment grew 8.9% in the
first four months of the year, both worse than expectations.
The soft activity data, combined with weak manufacturing
sector growth and slowing producer prices inflation, reinforced
analysts' view that China's economic expansion remains solid
but is starting to taper off. Analysts polled by Reuters had
predicted factory output would grow by 7.1% in April, easing
from March's 7.6%. Output growth slowed on tumbling steel
and iron ore prices amid concern over rising inventories after
China's mills cranked out as much metal as possible to drive
factory output to its highest since December 2014. Fixed asset
investment had been forecast to grow 9.1% over the first four
months of the year, easing from 9.2% in January-March. Retail
sales rose 10.7% YoY in April. Analysts had expected a 10.6%
rise, edging lower from the previous month. (Reuters)

 Islamic banks’ growth in Saudi Arabia to continue – S&P Global
Ratings expects the slowdown in growth at both conventional
and Islamic banks in the region will persist. Asset growth
stabilized at 6.4% in 2016 for Islamic and conventional banks in
S&P’s sample, compared with 6.6% and 6.9% respectively in
2015. S&P said asset growth will drop to about 5% as
government’s spending cuts and revenue-boosting initiatives,
such as tax introductions, reduce opportunities in the corporate
and retail sectors. S&P forecast oil prices will stabilize at $50
per barrel in 2017 and 2018, with un-weighted average GDP

 IMF: UAE non-oil growth to rebound in 2017 as austerity slows
– According to International Monetary Fund (IMF), non-oil
economic growth in the UAE is set to rebound in 2017 as

due to low oil prices. Natalia Tamirisa, IMF Mission Chief to the
Arab world's second biggest economy, predicted non-oil gross
domestic product, the key gauge for most businesses and
consumers, would expand about 3.3% in 2017, up from 2.7% in

products is attributed to the increase in the manufacturing
industries group prices at 5%. (GulfBase.com)
