Oshawa port "held back" by regulations

Wed May 20 09:42:49 CEST 2015 arnekiel

After being stuck in Oshawa Port for three days, the operator of a Polish cargo ship says the port has lots of potential, but it’s being held up by unneeded rules. This underdevelopment of the Oshawa Port, he says, is typical of many in the Great Lakes Region. “I always wondered why the Great Lakes (area) had not developed much when the rest of the world has developed tenfold,” Firat Adriansen, who works for New York-based freight manager Teegrus Management, tells The Oshawa Express. “The whole seaway system, lots of ports have archaic rules, bureaucracy and a lack of services that hamper development.” When The Express spoke with Adriansen on May 12, the ship had originally been scheduled to leave port that day, but what the port authority called unsuitable weather meant the ship would have to stay for the night. On top of that, Adriansen said they were waiting for an American pilot to take the ship out of the harbour, but none are stationed in Oshawa or even Toronto. That weather, however, would not have been a challenge for the MV Olza to navigate, Adriansen said. http://www.oshawaexpress.ca/viewposting.php?view=7959

Shipping season now underway at Oshawa port

Mon May 11 09:11:44 CEST 2015 arnekiel

The rail spur is ready to go as ships start docking at the Port of Oshawa for the 2015 shipping season. The first ship to drop anchor this year was the Marbacan, a Portuguese ship which brought 17,000 tonnes of steel rebar to Oshawa. Captain Sergeii Prokopenko accepted a top hat from Port of Oshawa officials at a ceremony on April 20. The top hat tradition dates back to 1829 when the captain of the first ship entering the Welland Canal received a top hat as a symbol of good luck. After unloading in Oshawa the Marbacan continued on to Thunder Bay.
