First ship of 2017 season arrives in Port of Green Bay

Thu Mar 23 11:36:24 CET 2017 arnekiel

GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- The start of spring brought with it the first ship of the season at the Port of Green Bay. The Michigan Great Lakes arrived at 11 a.m. Tuesday, according to port officials. It was to take ethanol from the U.S. Oil terminal to Montreal, Canada. “Last year, the first ship arrived March 22, so this season started just a day earlier than the 2016 season,” port director Dean Haen said in a news release. “The 2016 season officially ended on January 13, so it’s been a short break. It’s a good sign when the Port opens in March; it means that the demand for product from manufacturers is there. Those bouts of warm weather we had this winter were another contributing factor to the earlier start.” The beginning of the season also meant a prize was given away. Melanie Haedt of Suamico won the First Ship Contest by guessing closest to the time of the arrival of the first ship of the season. Haedt's guess of 1 p.m. March 21 was the closest of 150 entries. Her prize includes a $25 gift card to Titletown Brewing Company and a print by Sandford Photography. http://fox11online.com/news/local/green-bay/first-ship-of-2017-season-arrives-in-port-of-green-bay

Port of Green Bay becomes importer of refined products as pipeline shuts

Mon Jul 11 08:25:16 CEST 2016 arnekiel

Some of US cities supplied by the West Shore pipeline had to turn to unconventional supply sources this summer in order to meet area gasoline and diesel demand in the months since the indefinite closure of the Chicago-area refined products pipeline. On July 6, the barge the GM 6506 arrived at the Port of Green Bay from Whiting, Indiana, at US Oil’s terminal carrying diesel. Green Bay is the northern-most city at the segment of the West Shore pipeline that has been shut since March, and has been importing approximately two barges per week of gasoline and diesel since May through the Michigan Great Lakes in order to supply the local markets. “We were exporting diesel, gasoline and ethanol to the East Coast last year and the previous year, but this year we’ve flipped to an importer,” said Dean Haen, director of the Brown County Port and Resource Recovery Department. The new reality is a result of West Shore Pipeline’s decision to indefinitely shut the northern stretch of its line, which connects Milwaukee to Green Bay. The 115-mile stretch of refined products line has been shut since March after “unique conditions” were discovered. In June its operator and part-owner Buckeye Partners LP announced that the closure would be indefinite as it evaluates alternatives to rebuilding the line. http://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/port-of-green-bay-becomes-importer-of-refined-products-as-pipeline-shuts/

Long shipping season comes to an late end

Sat Jan 16 13:24:28 CET 2016 arnekiel

The salt-filled Algoma Transport’s Mesabi Miner arrival at Fox River Dock early Friday brought the Green Bay shipping season to an end, tying 2015 for the second-latest ending on record. But an early start and a late end to the shipping season didn’t help the Port of Green Bay match the 2.3 million metric tons that moved through the port in 2014. Brown County Port and Resource Recovery Director Dean Haen said the 1.97 million metric tons of cement, coal, limestone, petroleum products and salt that the port’s 14 terminal operators handled meant total tonnage for the 2015 season was down about 16 percent. Still, he said anything near 2 million metric tons constitutes a solid shipping season for the Port of Green Bay. http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/story/money/2016/01/15/2015-port-of-green-bay/78843910/
