Las últimas incorporaciones llevan la flota mercante española por encima de los cinco millones de GT

Pese a la reducción del número de embarcaciones totales, la incorporación de once buques de nueva construcción hace que crezca el arqueo y el tonelaje total de la flota, al tiempo que reduce su edad media.

La flota controlada por armadores españoles suma a primeros de año 218 buques con 5.044.994 GT y 4.673.555 tpm, con lo que, gracias a la incorporación de varios buques de gran porte, petroleros y metaneros, ha crecido un 12,5% anual en GT y un 17,1% en el tpm, pese a que por

COVID and the Straining Merchant Marine

On July 29, 2020, the heads of three maritime unions – Marshall Ainley of the Marine Engineers’ Beneficial Association, Don Marcus from the International Organization of Masters, Mate & Pilots, and Michael Sacco, the long-time President of Seafarers International Union – jointly penned a letter to Rear Admiral Michael A. Wettlaufer, the Commander of the U.S. Navy’s Military Sealift Command. In their one-page letter, they were blunt and to the point: “We are writing to you today to communicate our ongoing and increasingly grave concerns regarding the mental health and well-being of MSC’s CIVMARS [civilian mariners].”

The letter sent to the commander of Military Sealift

Les acteurs de la filière maritime, qui s’estiment souvent les grands invisibles de la classe économique française, n’osaient l’espérer. À la faveur d’un remaniement censé donner une nouvelle inflexion au gouvernement, le nouveau Premier ministre Jean Castex a créé un ministère de la Mer et attribue le portefeuille à Annick Girardin, jusqu’à présent chargée des Outre-mer.  Périmètre et sort réservé aux administrations centrales derrière ce nouveau ministère restent inconnus à ce jour

À l’heure où l’annonce tombe, nul ne sait quelle sera l’étendue de ce ministère de la mer restauré dans son intégrité. Tant « la famille française de la mer » est vaste. Sans doute Frédéric Moncany de Saint-Aignan, le président du Cluster maritime français, espère-t-il qu’il embrasse la
