What's Going on With Shipping?
October 21, 2022
In this episode, Sal Mercogliano - maritime historian at Campbell University and former merchant mariner - discusses the top 5 maritime news stories as of October 21, 2022. First, Russia may be ending the Ukrainian Black Sea Grain Initiative, as the war escalates with attacks on Nord Stream, the Kerch Strait Bridge and power distribution sites in Ukraine. At the same time, global food supply finds itself in jeopardy with low water on the Mississippi, Rhine, Yangtze and Plata. Second, the decline in global freight and manufacturing is impacting the decline in freight volumes and rates into the United States; but it is the start of a Freight Recession? Third, the Heritage Foundation has found the US Navy to be "very weak." What does this mean for global maritime trade if the US Navy is unable to guarantee the "freedom of the seas"? Fourth, the demand for natural gas in Europe - with the destruction of Nord Stream and sanctions/boycotts against Russian gas - has led to more American LNG being shipped to Europe. However, storage facilities and regasification capacity is at its limits, resulting in LNG tankers holding off the coast at a half a million dollars per day. Finally, the Deadliest Catch may be in jeopardy as Alaska closed winter snow crab due to the reduction of 90% of its population from warm water.
