How Israel will be affected in the long term by the upheavals in the region remains to be seen, though it seems likely that with neighbours such as Syria restive security issues will be at the fore. During the quarter Israel once again intercepted a vessel carrying arms bound for Gaza. Domestically the key issue affecting the Israeli maritime sector is the ongoing privatisation of the major ports. ------------------------------------------------------------ Full Report Details at - http://www.fastmr.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Headline Industry Data * Gross tonnage handled at Haifa, Israel's largest port, will expand by 4.1% in 2011 to reach 22.72mn tonnes, BMI forecasts. At Ashdod, the second largest port, tonnage will grow 5.1% to 19.48mn tonnes. * Box handling at Haifa will grow by 1.1% to 1.28mn TEUs. Ashdod, which is also the country's second largest box container operation, will see growth of 9.1% to 1.11mn TEUs. * The real value of Israeli foreign trade will grow at a much slower rate in 2011 than in 2010, because of the slower world economy. We project growth of +4.0%, down on the +8.8% registered last year. Key Industry Trends Global Port Operators Shun Eilat Box Drive: Israel's port of Eilat is seeking a private operator to increase the port's role in the container sector. Despite the plan to increase container throughput at the port, the privatisation initiative has so far only attracted domestic players, not the global container terminal operators that normally flock to a port keen to increase its box New Port To Be Built Off Gaza?: In March was reported possibility that an island port could be constructed off the Gaza Strip, controlled by an international force, in order to facilitate trade for the Palestinian enclave. Arms Intercepted: Key Risks To Outlook Continued political turmoil in Israel's Middle Eastern neighbourhood, especially within Egypt and Syria, offer both up and downside risk to BMI's forecasts for Israeli macroeconomics and port throughputs. Further, the death of Osama bin Laden could see a heightened security threat from Islamist militants.
