Israel Shipping Report Q1 2011
Description:
Business Monitor International's Isreal Freight Transport Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, freight transportation associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Isreal's freight transportation industry.
On a global level, we see risks to all three core-shipping sectors (container and dry and liquid bulk), with overcapacity and a drop in demand continually threatening to push down rates and impinge on lines' profits.
We see growth returning to the Israeli ports sector, and expect that the two major Israeli ports of Ashdod and Haifa will both return to positive figures this year following last year's contraction, and we expect them to continue to grow through our forecast period.
We also expect Israeli trade to continue to grow this year. Israel's private final consumption dominates the country's GDP, accounting for an estimated 56.1% of total GDP in 2010. This share is expected to remain fairly static over the long term, with our country risk desk forecasting the country's private final consumption to average 56.2% per year in the long-term forecast period. This further supports our positive demand outlook, with BMI typically favouring private-consumption-orientated economies overtrade-reliant states because of their expected greater resilience to global demand weakness.
Headline Industry Data
- 2011 Port of Ashdod tonnage throughput forecast +2.5% following projected growth of +24.7% in 2010.
- 2015 Port of Haifa throughput expected to reach 1.52mn 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs).
- Port of Haifa tonnage throughput expected to grow by an average of 4% per annum over 2011- 2015.
Key Industry Trends
Shipping lines add new services - a number of international shipping lines, including Panalpina and MSC, as well as Israel's own Zim, have added new services connecting with Israel to their schedules. New Carmel terminal opens at port of Haifa - the facility will enhance the nation's ports sector, but we maintain our view that it will be largely used to cater for the domestic Israeli market. This is despite Haifa's ideal location as an entry point from the Mediterranean to the Levant.
Zim - The line has been busy over the quarter, introducing a number of new services following its recent return to the black.
Key Risks To Outlook
Israel is susceptible to the global economic slowdown, especially to economic developments in the US where the economy continues to recover sluggishly and unemployment remains high.
