The North European edition of the Global Port Tracker follows on from the success of the North American Trade Outlook It provides a 6-month rolling forecast of imports and exports for the 6 major container ports in the Le Havre – Hamburg range.

Hackett Associates and the Institute of Shipping Economics and Logistics (ISL) have joined forces to provide a new port tool for Northern Europe by developing a model for tracking container volumes. We welcome you to the launch of the first edition of our new monthly newsletter which covers six ports in the northwest European range of Le Havre to Hamburg. This newsletter expands on its sister publication for North America which has become the monthly benchmark of short-term trade developments in 12 ports. The North Europe newsletter breaks new ground by providing monthly and quarterly projections for imports, exports and empty container moves in TEU format.

It also provides additional levels of aggregation by providing a pan-European quarterly projection for imports and exports as well as similar projections for North Europe and the Mediterranean-Black Sea region. These provide a ready benchmark to assess the activities of the six initial ports in our newsletter. The data for the six ports includes all traffic, including transshipment and short sea and reflects container moves.

This newsletter will also feature analysis and editorials from both Hackett Associates and ISL, and will be published regularly by the middle of each month. Plans are already underway to expand the coverage to include the U.K. and key ports in the Baltic.The North European edition of the Global Port Tracker follows on from the success of the North American Trade Outlook It provides a 6-month rolling forecast of imports and exports for the 6 major container ports in the Le Havre – Hamburg range. These are:

* Le Havre

* Antwerpen

* Zeebrugge

The forecasts also includes a four quarter rolling forecast to augment the monthly data which can be skewed by 4 and 5 week time periods. The historical and forecast data is presented in a series of tables and charts that mirror the layout of the North American newsletter. The purpose is to provide information at a glance.

The newsletter also incorporates a North Europe top line history (2008 onwards) and 18 month projection based on ELAA/CTS data.

In addition to providing a monthly short term forecast by direction of trade, the newsletter features an editorial, an economic outlook and an article by a guest contributor. Key news items related to individual ports are also included.

As we move forward the newsletter will incorporate the United Kingdom at the national level, empty container moves for the key ports and may be expanded to include up to three Baltic ports.
