Market Opinions and Briefings

01 Feb 2024: February Freight Loop - Impact of Red Sea crisis on global ports sector: Eleanor Hadland, Lead Analyst and Eirik Hooper Senior Analyst within Drewry Ports and terminals research team discuss what impact Cape diversions are having on ports calls in the Red Sea and Eastern Mediterranean.
 
Drewry finds that changes in market forces have shifted the risk/reward balance for Port Authorities towards retendering the concession in certain market conditions. 
 
M&A-led growth strategies will propel leading regional terminal operators and container shipping lines into the global terminal operator rankings next year, according to Drewry’s latest Global Container Terminal Operators Annual Review and Forecast report.
