The Australian Maritime Group (AMG) commissioned the report "International and Domestic Shipping and Ports Study", prepared by Meyrick & Associates / GHD / Booz Allen Hamilton, covering three main topics:

  • implications of developments in the legislative and regulatory environment, shipping, ports and logistics chains with an assessment of likely impacts for Australia;
  • implications of changes in the Australian international sea freight task over the period 2005-2020 covering the container, bulk and breakbulk trades with an assessment of existing plans to increase port capacity and the size/nature of any resulting capacity shortfalls; and
  • increasing shippings share of the Australian domestic freight task which focuses on the current market, required success factors, potential contestable market based on optimal conditions, and opportunities government/industry may have to support the future viability of coastal shipping.

The report has not yet been considered by the AMG, and does not necessarily reflect the views of the AMG or any of its members.
