The Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT), Florida’s largest container port, achieved record volumes in containers, vehicles and overall tonnage during the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2019.
JAXPORT moved more than 1.338 million twenty-foot equivalent units (or TEUs, the industry standard for measuring containers), a 5 percent increase over 2018, which was also a record year in container volumes for the port. JAXPORT has set container volume records for four consecutive years.
The port also moved the most vehicles in its history, nearly 696,500 total units, maintaining its position as one of the nation’s busiest vehicle handling ports. Strong auto sales in the Southeast U.S., combined with growing global demand for previously owned vehicles, contributed to the growth.
The growth in general cargo volumes fueled yet another record for the port: 10.9 million tons of total cargo moved through JAXPORT last year, up 4 percent over 2018.
Major announcements in fiscal year 2019:
· The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) awarded JAXPORT an additional $35.3 million for the Jacksonville Harbor Deepening project. With continued funding, Harbor deepening remains on track to be completed in 2023, two years ahead of schedule.
· Terminal operator SSA Atlantic is set to break ground on a state-of-the-art international container terminal at JAXPORT’s Blount Island terminal. Upon completion of the deepening project, the facility will offer a newly widened vessel turning basin and deepwater access of 47 feet.
· Port processor AMPORTS added 22.4 new acres of property for auto processing and storage space at JAXPORT’s Dames Point terminal, with plans to develop an additional 40-45 acres by 2023
2019 was also a strong year for JAXPORT’s cruise business, with nearly 195,000 passengers setting sail, just shy of the previous year’s cruise passenger record of 199,000 passengers.
More highlights:
Dry bulk cargoes (which include non-containerized commodities such as limestone and gravel) increased 19 percent over 2018, with nearly 880,000 tons shipped.
Breakbulk cargoes, including wood pulp, increased 7 percent with 934,600 tons moved.
Liquid bulk cargoes, including molasses and corn syrup, are up 4 percent with nearly 380,300 tons moved.
JAXPORT has recorded year-over-year cargo revenue growth for more than a decade.
Located in the Southeastern U.S. at the crossroads of the nation’s rail and highway network, JAXPORT is the global gateway to Florida, the nation’s third-largest state. The port offers service from dozens of ocean carriers, with competitive transit times to 140 ports in more than 70 countries.
After doing our morning bird count,Singe Lake BBS route, we were in a bit of a hurry to return to our camping spot to pack up and get on our way to our next stop. We didn't bargain on being stopped by a freight train that went on and on and on!
Lots of different ways to stack a container. Even one on the bottom that clearly says keep on top!
Lots more images in my blog: More containers and more containers.
At least, I now have lots of examples of X's for those on-line alphabet threads that always get hung up waiting for someone to post an X shot :-).
I first heard about the concept of intermodal traffic in 1970 when we rented some office space to two fellows from Livingstone Forwarding and they were going out, day after day, trying to convince people that containerized freight shipping was the thing of the future. At the same time, I was going out, day after day, trying to convince people, other than doctors, that pagers were the way of the future (at the time only doctors used pagers and usually only in affiliation with a hospital).

Maggie Blake's Cause is an alleyway connecting Shad Thames with the riverfront. Named after a local community activist it represents a significant victory - public access to the riverside in front of a section of Butler's Wharf.
The main Butlers Wharf building was built between 1871-73. It is the largest and most densely packed group of Victorian warehouses left in London. With the development of mechanical handling and containerization it fell into disuse with the last ship berthing in 1972. During the early 1970s it briefly hosted a number of studios. Both David Hockney and Andrew Logan, had their studios in the area but Butlers Wharf was becoming derelict. In 1981, Sir Terence Conran, with his architectural practice Conran Roche and various business partners made a bid for mixed use redevelopment which won approval from the LDDC. This included moving the Boilerhouse Project at the Victoria & Albert Museum to a new the Design Museum at Shad Thames. The Conran group focused on the waterfront, developing six buildings: the Butlers Wharf Building (with significant restaurant space, expensive apartments and some other office and commercial use) , and the renamed Cardamom, Clove, Cinnamon, Nutmeg and Coriander warehouses. Back from the river, other architects and developers converted derelict space and Victorian warehouses into and commercial complexes. With the property downturn in the early 1990s there was a gap in development - but by mid-decade a further wave of development took place.
Maggie Blake, along with other activists wanted to ensure that local people and the general public could walk freely along the south bank of the Thames. The developers wanted to restrict such movement - in particular so that the space could be exploited for commercial purposes (largely eating).

The Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT) is facilitating an "Elite" U.S. Army deployment operation this week at the port's Blount Island Marine Terminal. Elite moves are the Army's largest and most important cargo moves of the year.
The move of equipment from the 101st Airborne Division’s 101st Combat Aviation Brigade is being conducted by the Jacksonville Detachment at Blount Island under the command and control of the 832nd Transportation Battalion and in coordination with the 597th Transportation Brigade from Fort Eustis, Va.
Stevedores with port partner Portus are loading about 1,450 pieces, including UH-60 Blackhawk utility helicopters, AH-64 Apache attack helicopters, wheeled vehicles and other containerized support equipment, aboard the US-flagged vehicle carrier ARC Endurance. The equipment is en route to Europe where it will be used for a training mission.
The pieces arrived at Blount Island from Fort Campbell, Ky., by truck and rail over the past two weeks.
"Support from JAXPORT, as well as our trucking and rail partners here in Jacksonville, has been phenomenal," said Lt. Col. Thomas Patterson III from the 832nd Transportation Battalion. "In large moves like this one, efficiency is key to ensuring the best use of taxpayer dollars. Jacksonville offers the strategic value, expertise and flexibility to seamlessly get it all done."
"JAXPORT is one of the nation's most diversified ports, and our ability to support the military is an important part of our diversification strategy," said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. "We are proud to serve our community and country in this capacity."
Located at the crossroads of the nation’s rail and highway network, JAXPORT offers fast access to three major interstates, 40 daily trains and service from more than 100 trucking firms.
As one of the nation's 17 strategic seaports, JAXPORT is on call 24/7 to move U.S. Military cargo for national defense, foreign humanitarian aid and disaster relief, and the only port in Florida with this designation.

Audacia is Allseas’ [a Swiss-based offshore contractor specializing in pipelay, heavy lift and subsea construction] versatile pipelay vessel, optimized for the execution of small- to large-diameter pipeline projects of any length in all water depths, and for associated work such as the installation of risers and subsea protection frames. The concept for Audacia was developed entirely in-house and she has been operational since 2007. A length of 225 m places her between Allseas’ dynamically positioned pipelay vessels Solitaire and Lorelay. Precise maneuvering on full dynamic positioning with a stinger positioned on the bow allow Audacia to work safely in congested areas and lay pipes in very deep water. Pipeline start-ups and lay-downs are executed in very quick time ensuring any disruption to other activities near platforms is minimized. Due to her long length and ship-shape Audacia can accommodate multiple workstations and has a greater pipe hold capacity. Her independence from anchor handlers and large buffer capacity also ensure she is less dependent on pipe off-loading from supply vessels. A high transit speed, high lay speed and large carrying capacity ensure Audacia is highly competitive for pipelay projects anywhere in the world / Port of Ravenna is an Italian seaport on the North Adriatic Sea in Ravenna, Italy. It is one of the top twenty Italian ports and top forty European ports. The port of Ravenna is the main port of Emilia-Romagna. The docks are mainly on a canal that connects the town centre of Ravenna (which is inland) to the sea which is 12 km away. The offshore breakwaters are in the little towns of Porto Corsini and Marina di Ravenna. It hosts shipyards, multipurpose terminals, bulk cargo terminals and a containerized cargo terminal. There are also a big passenger and cruise lines terminal and the biggest marinas of the Adriatic Sea.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BNSF_Railway
The BNSF Railway (AAR reporting marks BNSF) headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, is one of the four remaining transcontinental railroads and one of the largest railroad networks in North America. Only the Union Pacific Railroad is larger in size. With globalization, the transcontinental railroads are a key component in the containerization of trade from the Pacific Rim. The BNSF Railway moves more intermodal freight traffic than any other rail system in the world.
It was formed December 31, 1996, as the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway when the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway was merged into the Burlington Northern Railroad. In 1999 the BNSF Railway and the Canadian National Railway announced their intention to merge and form a new corporation entitled the North American Railways to be headquartered in Montreal, Canada. The United States' Surface Transportation Board (STB) placed a 15-month moratorium on all rail mergers, which ended this merger. On January 24, 2005, the railroad's name was officially changed to BNSF Railway.[1]
The BNSF Railway is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation, the holding company formed by the September 22, 1995 merger of Burlington Northern, Incorporated and the Santa Fe Pacific Corporation. According to corporate press releases, the BNSF Railway is among the top transporters of intermodal freight in North America. It moves more grain than any other American railroad. It also hauls enough coal to generate roughly 10% of the electricity produced in the United States. The company's northern route completes the high-speed link from the western to eastern United States.
This was the route of the Great Northern Railway's Silk Extras in the 1920s. They had priority over all other trains, stopping only for refueling and crew changes. These trains transported silk to the east from ships arriving in the Port of Seattle from Japan.

The Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT) is facilitating an "Elite" U.S. Army deployment operation this week at the port's Blount Island Marine Terminal. Elite moves are the Army's largest and most important cargo moves of the year.
The move of equipment from the 101st Airborne Division’s 101st Combat Aviation Brigade is being conducted by the Jacksonville Detachment at Blount Island under the command and control of the 832nd Transportation Battalion and in coordination with the 597th Transportation Brigade from Fort Eustis, Va.
Stevedores with port partner Portus are loading about 1,450 pieces, including UH-60 Blackhawk utility helicopters, AH-64 Apache attack helicopters, wheeled vehicles and other containerized support equipment, aboard the US-flagged vehicle carrier ARC Endurance. The equipment is en route to Europe where it will be used for a training mission.
The pieces arrived at Blount Island from Fort Campbell, Ky., by truck and rail over the past two weeks.
"Support from JAXPORT, as well as our trucking and rail partners here in Jacksonville, has been phenomenal," said Lt. Col. Thomas Patterson III from the 832nd Transportation Battalion. "In large moves like this one, efficiency is key to ensuring the best use of taxpayer dollars. Jacksonville offers the strategic value, expertise and flexibility to seamlessly get it all done."
"JAXPORT is one of the nation's most diversified ports, and our ability to support the military is an important part of our diversification strategy," said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. "We are proud to serve our community and country in this capacity."
Located at the crossroads of the nation’s rail and highway network, JAXPORT offers fast access to three major interstates, 40 daily trains and service from more than 100 trucking firms.
As one of the nation's 17 strategic seaports, JAXPORT is on call 24/7 to move U.S. Military cargo for national defense, foreign humanitarian aid and disaster relief, and the only port in Florida with this designation.

GPLN member Arshiya Logistics WLL (formerly BDP Qatar WLL) handled some Groove Cranes movement from Michel Machinery Company Inc in the United States for the Qatari Shareholding Company (QSC) who is engaged into Dolphin Gas Project and several projects for RasGas / Qatar Gas in Qatar.
Arshiya Logistics WLL(Qatar) with help of 5K Logistics handled this project movement Ex-USA factory to Qatar project site. The transportation was done using a MAFI-Cargo trailers from the factory to Galveston Port. The pick up locations were:
- St. Louis, Missouri - 2 cranes
- Corpus Christi, Texas - one crane
- Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - one crane
A breakulk vessel from Galveston Port, United States, to Doha, Qatar was booked. Arshiya Logistics also handled inland haulage from Doha Port to the Qatari client's site using low bed trailers and as well was engaged into arranging the duty waiver and exemption for this client at Doha Customs. Along with the haulage Arshiya arranged the police escort and Qatar Traffic Department permissions.
Initially, QSC had to move total four Grove cranes and the value was approximately USD 1.8 million. Technical specifications were 581.624 m3 and total gross weight of 160 tons with height of 3.5 meters. There were letter of credit problems considering the time deadline, etc., and many bottlenecks in documentation because the supplier was dealing with Qatar client for the first time.
QSC nominated GPLN member Arshiya Logistics, considering Arshiya's professionalism in project logistics globally. But handling projects requires special personalized touch as well as technical expertise because it is totally different ball game than normal containerized business. The following hurdles are confirm that if any project movement is given to any inexperienced service provider just based on rates then blue chip clients are off course paying penalties for their decision.
1) Just one day before the vessel arrival in Galveston Port Hurricane Ike hit the area.
2) Power, water issues keep Galveston Port offline for about two weeks after Hurricane Ike left the port and much of the region. There was no trace of any shipment as the Port Authority closed the port.
3) But for Arshiya Logistics WLL (Qatar) it was matter client serving and 100% transparency. Arshiya Logistics arranged a 3rd-party surveyor to the port with help the help of 5K Logistics, the GPLN member in Philadelphia. The surveyor accessed the cranes and completed the survey. Everything was okay except some few tires, which were affected because of mud.
4) Most of the vessels cancelled calling at Galveston Port after this hurricane.
5) These cranes were lying in Galveston Port for almost 45 days.
Shipment was urgent for the Qatari company and for that they had full trust in Arshiya Logistics's reliability and professionalism. Arshiya Logistics managed to get the shipment out from United States and in Doha within 40 days without any rate hike and port storage issues.
Arshiya Logistics team of Mr. Vaibhav Malpekar and Mr. Jigar Shah, with 5K Logistics (Mr. Paul J McGrath and team) were in full coordination and had conference calls almost every day in order to work out alterative solutions so that the delivery of these four cranes to the client could be managed as per prior commitment, in spite of all these hurdles.
Arshiya Logistics is handling more projects for the New Doha International Airport (NDIA) as well as KAHRAMA (the Qatar Water & Electricity Board).
