Hinterland Connectivity And Intermodal TransportationImproving connectivity to ports for a competitive differentiator


"Growth in trade volumes is a major factor underlying Asian port operators' expansion plans. Improving connections will improve hinterland distribution and consolidation centres in the logistics chain."

- Euromonitor International 2014

Why you cannot miss this event

Asia heavily relies on its maritime gateways to the international economy for sea borne trade. Ports are a vital source of economic development for the countriesin which they are located. Importance of hinterland connections has been recognised as one of the most critical issues in port competitiveness and development in most ports around the world. Ef�cient hinterland transport routes are in the vital interest of major seaports.

The economies of scale sought by the maritime industry have led to sharp increases of ship size and industry consolidation, resulting in port concentration and cargo peaks. This has brought consequences for all actors of the hinterland transport chain who face both the negative effects of bottlenecks and the costs to overcome them. The 2014-2016 term of the Global Agenda Council on Infrastructure seeks to de�ne and launch an infrastructure knowledge platform with the goal of having a tangible impact on the short to mid-term in the infrastructure space. With port development in place to meet this demand, new projects are being announced creating exceptional maritime business opportunities as ports strive to deliver world class service, facilities and ef�ciencies.

This conference will gather port developers, local authorities, rail, road, supply chain and other industry experts. With participation from high-level executives this is a must attend event for developing economic growth through effective elimination of bottlenecks for hinterland connectivity and intermodal transportation.

This unique conference will bring delegates the benefits of:

• Discovering effective measures in facilitating and sustaining good cooperation between supply chain stakeholders for effective logistics• Determining the pulling effect of hinterland economy of port logistics• Optimising operational performance by ensuring highest level of hinter land connections• Looking into measures to be taken in easing congestion and improving connectivity• Establishing effective connections through road, rail, and inland and coastal waterways resulting in ports becoming drivers of economic activity in coastal areas

Opening address by Chairperson

Session One Gearing up for AEC (Asean Economic Community) – Reviewing policy framework in improving hinterland infrastructure development for ASEANThe Asean Economic Community is a blueprint on economic cooperation among South East Asia nations. Southeast Asia’s level of port infrastructure development is well below average levels in the developed world. There is a huge need for the ASEAN port productivity to be increased through increased efforts in improving hinterland connectivity. The action to continuously monitor and review key performance indicators related to port and berth productivity is top of the list of maritime-related goals and actions in the ASEAN Transport Strategic Plan 2016 to 2025.Jeff Tan Principal Consultant, Transportation & Logistics PracticeFrost & Sullivan, Malaysia

Session Two One Belt and One Road - OBOR: Exerting multi-dimensional impacts on the global supply chain and maritime connectivityThe Chinese government initiated the concept of the “Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-Century Maritime Silk Road” (hereinafter referred to as the One Belt and One Road: OBOR) in tandem with launching the Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in 2015, in which 57 countries have joined as members. The OBOR aims to promote the connectivity of Asian, European and African continents and their adjacent seas, establish and strengthen partnerships among the countries along the Belt and Road, set up omni-dimensional, multi-tiered and composite connectivity networks, and realise diversi�ed, independent, balanced and sustainable development in these countries. Mark Yong Director-Business DevelopmentBMT Asia, Hong Kong

Morning refreshments

Session ThreeBalancing between productivity on the docks and movements by road from the portProductivity challenges arise on the docks and movements by road or rail to and from the port, which are interconnected. Key to the port’s success is encouraging the broader industry to work around the clock as the port does. Government restrictions on the movement of trucks on certain days are a major factor of success to convince customers to work continuously.Eddy Bruyninckx CEOAntwerp Port Authority, Belgium

Session Four: Panel DiscussionDeveloping intermodal hinterland facilities – A global perspective• What are the bene�ts of synchromodality?• Understanding intermodal as a growth opportunity for ports• How can ports improve their inland links – and how should this be funded?• Multidimensional collaboration• How to generate proper intermodal connections• Understanding the customer perspectives: connectivity, volume & frequency• What are the next steps towards an intermodality approach?PanelistRichard Barclay CEOManila North Harbour Port Incorporated, Philippines

Session FiveImproving relationships between seaports and intermodalhinterland in making the logistic chain more ef�cientExpansion of ports’ hinterlands and potentials for more effective and ef�cient hinterland systems, associated with better collaboration and coordination among actors in the supply chain, gives hinterland logistics an obvious role in designing and managing global supply chains.• How to optimise the logistic chain?• Better collaboration and coordination among actors in the supply chainLt. Sutthinan Hatthawong, R.T.N. Director GeneralPort Authority of Thailand, Thailand

Session SixSeaports and Transport Corridors: Innovative measures in enabling shippers to reach their hinterland customers quickly and reliablyCompetition between regional gateway ports and intermediate hub container ports is becoming common. Corridors are the essential link between these ports and continental hinterlands. Capacity expansions of seaport and corridor networks (resources), in conjunction with ef�cient transport services/operations (capabilities) are important to guarantee the attractiveness of a port-corridor combination.Nazery Khalid Honorary Secretary and Head of Planning & DevelopmentAssociation of Marine Industries Malaysia & BousteadHeavy Industries Corporation, Malaysia

Afternoon refreshments

Session SevenInnovative approach in nancing transport infrastructure projects in IndonesiaInfrastructure is the watchword for ASEAN countries. Indonesia itself targets USD385 billion of infrastructure spending over the next �ve years to build an ef�cient transportation network thatcan foster higher economic growth and lift the country to middle income status. Join this case study session to see how the government funding together with private investors can bene�t to the new infrastructure projects.Y Bayu Wirawan Senior Vice President InvestmentPT Indonesia Infrastructure Finance, Indonesia

Session EightThe Dry Port Concept: Moving seaport activities inlandThis session emphasizes the importance of functional seaport inland access that might be obtained through implementation of advanced inland intermodal terminals - dry ports, which would make goods handling more ef�cient, and a shift of freight volumes from road to more energy ef�cient traf�c modes that are less harmful to the environment.Speaker to be advised

Opening address by Chairperson

Session OneConnecting airports and hinterland with “High Speed Rail”Airports play an important role as nodal points. Using High Speed rail would allow to replace some short-haul flights in covering distances of 600 to 800 kilometres and thus reduce expected increased airport congestion. Stephen Archer CEOBaltic Rail, Estonia

Session TwoAccelerating multimodal logistics operations by developinginland hubs and improving hinterland connectivityGrowing demand for logistics and supply chain brings along many opportunities as well as challenges in developing the right infrastructure. With better connectivity, services, cooperationand �nancing, supply chain management will improve and move towards an efcient and innovative logistics operation. Join this session to hear key factors that make the whole logistics industry running.Michael Pal Principal Logistics AnalystFremantle Ports, Australia

Morning refreshments

Session Three: Panel DiscussionHinterland rail freight links- Meeting the growing demand by rail• How does the rail network support UK ports?• How to alleviate congestion on the railways?• Understanding capacity: how to ensure that once new business is attracted into port, that the railways can support?• How to ensure more containers are transported by rail?• How can rail overcome the perception of being inflexible and less responsive, especially for smaller users?Panelist:Stephen Archer CEOBaltic Rail, Estonia

Michael Pal Principal Logistics AnalystFremantle Ports, Australia

Session Four Increasing & optimize port/terminal capacity & transhipment operations• Loading method, speed and capacity• Innovative floating crane & barge unloader crane design and operations• Transshipment and cargo preparations• Effectiveness and efficiency cost of operations• Logistics, stockpile and port/jetty operations• Identify solution to optimise of port/terminal operationNorlent Pasaribu Senior Vice-President & COOPT Cigading International Bulk Terminal, Indonesia

Session FiveImproving collaborations and better visibility across the supply chain with effective management on intermittent cargo �owsUneven cargo flows is a huge problem. But the problem lies in the entire supply chain activity. It is never the same when �xing the crane issue; the problem gets moved to the yard. The same goes when �xing the yard issue, the problem gets moved to hinterland connectivity. This session will address effective ways in handling the total supply chain activity and also various methods in eliminating a new bottleneck.Rajiv Agarwal CEO & Managing DirectorEssar Ports Limited, India

Afternoon refreshments

Session SixSmart port concept applications for port hinterland intermodal network optimisation• Taking into consideration, the effects those increasing traf�c volumes will have on the existing infrastructure• Analysing how Smart Port Concept implies for smarter infrastructure for container ports and • How to handle increasing container volumes in the shortest conceivable time in an area of relatively constant size?• Modern hinterland intermodal transport management under the Smart Port Concept regarding port operational efficiency and sustainable development, focusing on the challenges that the development of container terminal infrastructure through Smart Port Planning is likely to bring to the local communities. Recommendations and a set of good practices are providedSpeaker to be advised

Session Seven From First Mile to Last Mile: Inland freight distributionThe "Last Mile" often consists of truck deliveries taking place over short distances, but likely in a congested urban setting and in less than full truck load (LTL). It is often one of the most complex element of the commodity chain to organize as it reconciles many customers, a variety of shipments and reliability dif�culties related to congestion. The "Last Mile" concept also applies to the "First Mile", albeit in reverse, which involves consolidation to a nearby transport terminal of the output of potentially several producers.Speaker to be advised
