A service call for Plymouth South automotive students…T

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 28, 2011– PLYMOUTH, MA…

For the month of April, Tracy auto part Chevrolet Cadillac chose to honor automotive students in Plymouth South High School's Technical Studies program.

While the typical Driven Student celebration involves a pizza party at the school, Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac provided these budding mechanics with something a bit more valuable: a training session on hybrid technology at the dealership.

"Even though hybrid cars have been around a while, our students really haven't exposure to them through our programs because the vehicles typically have five-year warranties and the owners bring them into the dealership for service instead of our shop at the school," said Randy Cabral, automotive instructor at Plymouth South. "Being invited down here to see that technology up close is a phenomenal experience for our students."

Rick McGue, Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac service manager, led the training session. That included looking under the hood of two hybrids, one of those vehicles belonging to Bruins legend Bobby Orr. Tracy Service Te bmw chnician Steve Rasch also provided instruction on the hybrid technology and answered questions in between servicing the vehicles.

"The service component of our business is critical to the success or failure of a dealership," said Jeff Tracy, president of Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac. "By having the kids visit the dealership, we're hopefully doing more than showing them a new technology but demonstrating the critical role they can play in our industry."

Taking part in the training were: dodge Michel Jacobson, Jake Waters, Cam Nwell, Billy Stevenson, Doug Duyette, Devin Ford, Jon Flaherty and Nick Luke,

Looking After your First Car

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 26, 2011– Looking after your car not only makes sense given that you most likely need it for work or family journeys, a well maintained car is generally a more reliable car. Basic checks can help spot something that needs attention before it becomes a major breakdown, these checks should be carried out at regular intervals, an ideal time might be at the same time you clean your car, assuming you do clean it!

The main things to check weekly on your car are listed below.

Engine Oil Level Checking Engine oil, don't forget this one, especially on older cars, it will take you all of 2 minutes to c audi heck your oil but the cost of not could be huge, if your car runs out of engine oil either through leaks or being burnt as often the case in older high mileage cars the engine will seize up solid, metal inside your engine needs a fine layer or film of oil between the moving metal parts, without it is disastrous and could easily cost £1000's to repair or replace a seized engine. Refer to your owner's manual for the correct grade of engine oil for your car and do not over fill.

Screen Wash Level Water, and no we don't mean carrying a bottle of spring water in the glove box. Keeping your screen wash topped up. You will easily tell if the screen wash reservoir runs dry, bear in mind though that screen wash additives serve two functions, cleaning and raising the freezing point of the water it is mixed with.

Cooling System Check Get into the habit of checking your cars cooling system levels, modern cars are usually good and need only infrequent checks but older cars can and do use / loose water especially if they are allowed to run hot in traffic jams during the summer.

Tyre Pressures and Wear Checkin dodge g Check your tyres, they are expensive to replace, under inflated tyres will not only wear uneven chrysler ly and need replacing sooner but  will impact again on your mpg, don't over inflate them as this leads to poor handling and a harsh ride, always check in your handbook for the correct air pressure needed in your tyres.

Brakes Okay so seems obvious but allowing brakes pads to wear down past their friction material and allow metal to run against the brake disc itself will either wear groove into the discs or warp them due to overheating, either way replacement of the discs is only a matter of time as worn discs will wear out new brake pads quickly. Brake fluid, again a two second visual check but spotting a low level early could save more than just money, low brake fluid is almost always attributed to a leak, which will affect your braking distance, locate the leak quickly and if you can't fix then top up the brake reservoir and drive your car slowly to the garage to have it checked out. There are different types or grades of brake fluid (DOT 4, 5 etc.).

Power Steering Level Again another quick check, usual signs though of a low power steering fluid level are noise or whining when the steering wheel is being turned. Check your owner's manual for recommended type of power steering fluid or automatic transmission fluid that is often used (Dexron 4, 5 etc.).

"Argentina Oil & Gas Report Q2 2011" is now available at Fast Market Research

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 23, 2011– The latest Argentina Oil & Gas Report from BMI forecasts that the country will account for 6.01% of Latin America regional oil demand by 2015, while providing 5.48% of supply. Latin American regional use averaged an estimated 7.88mn barrels per day (b/d) in 2010. It should rise to 8.07mn b/d in 2011 and reach 8.69mn b/d by 2015. Regional oil production in 2010 averaged an estimated 10.03mn b/d. It is set to rise to 11.66mn b/d by 2015. Oil exports have been slipping, because demand growth has exceeded the pace of supply expansion. In 2001, the region was exporting an average of 3.46mn b/d. This total fell to an estimated 2.15mn b/d in 2010 and is forecast to rebound to 2.97mn b/d in 2015. The principal exporters will be Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil.

In terms of natural gas, the region in 2010 consumed an estimated 209bn cubic metres (bcm), with demand of 264bcm targeted for 2015. Production of an estimated 221bcm in 2010 should reach 273bcm in 2015, and implies more than 8bcm of net exports at the end of the period. Argentina's share of gas consumption in 2010 was an estimated 21.29%, while its share of production is put at 19.45%. By 2015, its share of gas consumption is forecast to be 19.46%, with the country accounting for 18.33% of supply.

The 2010 full-year outturn was US$77.45/bbl for OPEC crude, which delivered an average for North Sea Brent of US$80.34/bbl and for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) of US$79.61/bbl. The BMI price target of US$77 was reached thanks to the early onset of particularly cold weather, which drove up demand for and the price of heating oil during the closing weeks of the year.

We set our 2011 supply, demand and price forecasts in early January, targeting global oil demand growth of 1.53% and supply growth of 1.91%. With OECD inventories at the top of their five-year average range, we set a price forecast of US$80/bbl average for the OPEC basket in 2011. The unprecedented wave of popular uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) that followed the removal of Tunisian President Ben Ali on January 14 has obviously fundamentally altered our outlook, particularly since the unrest spread to Libya in mid-February.

Taking into account the risk premium that has been added to crude prices in response to actual and perceived threats to supply, we have now raised our benchmark OPEC basket price forecast from US$80 to US$90/bbl for 2011 and from US$85 to US$95/bbl for 2012. Based on our expectations for differentials, this gives a forecast for Brent at US$94/bbl in 2011 and US$99/bbl in 2012. We have kept our long-term price assumption of US$90/bbl (OPEC basket) in place for the time being while we wait to see what path events in the MENA region take. We have also retained our existing supply and demand forecasts until the scheduled quarterly revision at the start of April.

Argentina's real GDP rose by an estimated 8.0% in 2010, with an average annual growth rate of 4.7% forecast in 2010-2015. State entity Enarsa acts as partner to international oil companies (IOCs) in supporting output growth efforts, operating alongside regional heavyweight Repsol YPF and others. We are assuming oil production peaking at no more than 665,000b/d in 2013, with the country believed to have pumped 668,000b/d in 2010. Beyond the 2009 dip, consumption is forecast to increase by around 1.5% per annum to 2015, implying demand of 522,000b/d by the end of the forecast period. The crude oil export capability would therefore be around 116,000b/d by 2015. Gas production is forecast to increase from an estimated 43bcm in 2010 to a high of 46bcm during the period, resulting in the need for almost 10bcm of net imports by 2015, if demand grows by 15.6%.

Between 2010 and 2020, buick we are forecasting a decrease in Argentine oil production of 13.6%, with crude volumes peaking in 2013 at 665,000b/d, before falling steadily to 577,000b/d by the end of the 10-year forecast per rc helicopter and car market place iod. Oil consumption between 2010 and 2020 is set to increase by 14.3%, with growth slowing to an assumed 1% per annum towards the end of the period and the country using 549,000b/d by 2020. Gas production is expected to rise gradually, from an estimated 43bcm i chevrolet n 2010 to 50bcm in 2015, before slipping back to 46bcm by 2020. With demand growth of 34.0%, this provides a need for net imports to rise to almost 14bcm by 2020. Details of BMI's 10-year forecasts can be found at the end of this report.

Argentina now takes fourth place, above Venezuela and Trinidad, in BMI's composite Business Environment (BE) rating, which combines upstream and downstream scores. This reflects the country's sixth place in our updated upstream Business Environment ratings, behind Trinidad and Tobago (T&T). Its gas resources, largely privatised oil sector, licensing regime and competitive landscape work in the country's favour, but are undermined by an absence of growth potential, asset maturity and unappealing risk environment. Medium-term scope exists for Argentina to overtake Trinidad, and it should be safe from Ecuador some six points below. Argentina is well up the league table in BMI's downstream Business Environment ratings, reflecting its privatised refining and marketing segment, substantial capacity and competitive environment, offset by only moderate growth potential and a relatively high level of retail site intensity. It holds third place, behind Colombia, in the regional rankings.

Diamond Honda Question and Answer on the all new 2012 Honda Civic

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 21, 2011– Diamond Honda of Glendale a leading Los Angeles area Honda dealer is pleased to announce that the all new 2012 Honda Civic is available for sale. We asked sales reps what types of questions they've received so far on the new 2012 Civic and here are the questions along with the answers:

What type of oil does the Civic use? The factory-recommended oil is Genuine Honda 0W-20 non-synthetic

Why isn't the available automatic a 6-speed instead of a 5-speed? Honda engineers were able to achieve competitive performance and fuel economy with going to the expense (and weight) of using a 6-speed transmission.

Is the 1.8-liter engine the same as last years? The engine develops the same horsepower and torque, but there are important changes including numerous friction-reduction and airflow technologies that have been employed to maximize fuel-efficiency. This audi ultimately results in a 3-mpg increase in fuel economy in both th acura e city and highway for the Civic when equipped with an automatic transmission.

Can you get a manual transmission on the EX and EX-L? A manual transmission isn't available on those model grades of Civic Sedan, and only the EX Coupe is available in a manual. In model grades where both are available the manual transmission version has a lower price.

What doe the ECON button control? All Civic grades (except SI models) have a standard driver-selectable "ECON" driving mode that alters the drive-by-wire response curve. ECON mode also alters shift timing (in an automatic you'll notice it upshift quicker). To further enhance fuel economy, the climate control's upper five fan speeds are lowered incrementally. With these things in mind when using ECON Mode and cruise control at the same time, the cruise control will not maintain sp cadillac eed going uphill or may take longer than expected to return to driver selected speeds.

Why isn't there a plug-in version of the Civic Hybrid A plug-in Civic Hybrid would need to have many times more the battery capacity, which would substantially raise the price of the vehicle. Honda's engineers believe the current state of battery technology and cost, the Civic's Integrated Motor Assist hybrid system offers a better compromise between purchase price and operating cost for most buyers.

How long will the Civic Hybrid's battery last? The battery warranty of the 2012 Civic Hybrid is 15 years, or 150,000 miles (for vehicles with ARB AT PZEV emission certification)

What is the official fuel economy for the 2012 Civic Hybrid? 44 city/44 highway/44 combined 9. In Honda Civics equipped with Honda Satellite Linked Navigation does the FM traffic have a monthly charge? There is no monthly charge. It's free.

What sources does the FM traffic use? Traffic sensors, NAVTEQ sensors, Government sensors, Toll-Tags, Commercial-based Probe Data, and Consumer-based Probe Data

How many voice commands are available on the Civic with Navigation? There are 726 total voice commands.   Diamond Honda of Glendale, CA invites Los Angeles area Honda shoppers to test drive the all new 2012 or email in any additional questions you might have.

Shurhold Industries Celebrates National Car Care Month

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 21, 2011 – (Palm City, Florida) – With National Car Care Month underway in April and Earth Day coming soon, Shurhold Industries reminds consu goverment technology mers that household products can cause serious damage to your vehicle, harm the environment, and can even be harder to work with. The following list includes the most common vehicle cleaning mistakes and other practices people make. By following these guidelines you can not only help the environment, but also keep your vehicle looking like new.

#1 – Di 2011 Dodge Durango R / T sh Soap Dish soaps can cause many problems, from stripping wax to degrading the waterproofing on fabrics. In some cases, these chemicals are harmful to the environment and shouldn't ever be dumped irresponsibly.

#2 – Windex Most car mirrors are made of plastic, not glass. Since Windex and other glass cleaners contain ammonia, they can cause yellowing, cracking and many other issues. Ammonia can also damage window tint.

#3 – Paper Towels Paper towels are not actually a very soft material. They're too harsh and scratch many soft plastics. Additionally, paper towels fall apart easy and can become very costly over time. In addition, paper towels are bad for the environment.

#4 – Soft Scrub Abrasive household cleansers like Soft Scrub are too strong for car material. Fiberglass, clear coat and gelcoat surfaces easily lose their protective coatings to these harsh cleaners. Bleach-based products will have a tendency to discolor fabrics and break down their integrity.

#5 – Pledge Pledge is g bmw M5 specification reat on wood, not on clear vinyl like isinglass. Pledge contains solvents that removes the plasticizers from the plastic. This causes the material to become brittle and yellow. This is especially true for the plastic back window of a convertible top.

#6 – Limited Space Everyone is on a budget, don't waste all your money on cleaning tools. Most manufacturers of detailing products market a product for eve ni ssan GTR specification ry potential type of surface, stain, or area of your car. These chemicals and tools become very costly and will quickly overcrowd your garage.  Look for high-quality multipurpose products, they will save you time, money, and space.

#7 – Procrastination and Neglect Environmental build-up can quickly damage anything. Overlooking or neglecting the right maintenance items and schedule will not only reduce the value of your investment over time, but will also make maintenance much harder.

Shurhold Industries designs, manufactures and sells professional-grade chemicals and hand-held tools for automotive use. Unlike other companies that repackage the same chemical formula and sell it as many different products for different applications, Shurhold has consolidated its formulas into fewer compounds designed for multiple uses. Consumers benefit by saving time, space and money.

The company's automotive chemical products include: Brite Wash, a high end wash for multiple surfaces; Buff Magic, a premier metal polish that also acts as a buffing and polishing cream; Pro Polish, a polymer based formula that works like a wax; Serious Shine, a quick detailer that cleans, polishes, and protects virtually any solid surface; and SMC, a multipurpose, multi-surface cleaner.

EcoLPi Falcon To Go On Sale Mid-Year

Australia's next-generation EcoLPi liquid injection LPG system for Falcon will go on sale in mid-2011, providing customers with the most advanced LPG technology on the market.

The new EcoLPi in-line six-cylinder engine is a state-of-the-art, liquid phase injection, dedicated LPG powerplant that delivers impressive fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions, as well as no compromise engine performance compared to Falcon's existing petrol I6 engine.

"The introduction of EcoLPi is the next step in Ford (http://www.ford.com.au) Australia's comprehensive new product offensive, which will see close to 85 per cent of our vehicle line-up all-new or significantly updated over the next 12 months," Bob Graziano, President & CEO, Ford Australia said.

"It also represents another key pillar in Ford's plan to bring a range of sustainability initiatives to market, following the launch of Australia's first locally-produced diesel vehicle with the new SZ Territory, as well as the introduction of Ford's patented EcoBoost engine technology on Mondeo.

"Awareness of the climate change issue and its importance to consumers has seen Ford deliver a range of product actions in recent years, which have introduced sustainable technologies that are conscious of both the environment and our customers.

"Improvements in fuel economy, CO2 emissions and cost of ownership have been achieved through a combination of engineering developments, the introduction of a new range of small and light cars, and the expanded availability of alternative fuel vehicles such as diesel and LPG."

Liquid injection LPG is the most advanced LPG technology currently available and delivers significant driveability and operating improvements compared to the previous E-Gas venturi-style vapour system offered by Ford, including better fuel economy and substantial increases in both power and torque outputs.

"LPG is an alternative fuel that is readily available almost anywhere in Australia and provides real benefits for Australian consumers, with reduced fuel costs contributing to a significant improvement in cost of ownership," Graziano added.

"Falcon EcoLPi offers customers the power, torque and overall engine performance they expect from a traditional Aussie six, coupled with all the space, comfort and towing capability of a family sedan, while at the same time delivering the fuel costs of a sma automobile news ller car."

The cornerstone of the EcoLPi engine is the new injection system, which follows a similar fuel indu 2011 Dodge Durango R / T ction configuration to the petrol I6 engine courtesy of a new injector-based, high-pressure fuel rail that delivers liquid-state LPG fuel directly into the intake port.

Whereas traditional vapour LPG systems turn liquefied gas into vapour form before feeding it into the engine via a venturi in the throttle body, the liquid phase injection system takes the gas in liquid state all the way to the injectors.

Injecting the LPG fuel in a liquid state directly into the intake port in a more precise and contr ni ssan GTR specification olled manner generates improved engine volumetric efficiency, which delivers better fuel economy, reduced CO2 emissions and greater engine performance.  

As the LPG fuel is no longer under pressure once it is released from the injector, its sudden expansion and rapid cooling of the incoming air charge creates the ideal conditions for maximum fuel burning efficiency.  

This enables the engine to produce more power and torque, economically, and with fewer emissions.

The new EcoLPi engine develops 198 kW of power at 5000 rpm and 409 Nm of torque at 3250 rpm, which is identical to the petrol I6 engine when operating on high octane 95 RON unleaded fuel (versus regular 91 RON unleaded).

For EcoLPi that represents a 27 per cent improvement in maximum power and a 10 per cent improvement in peak torque compared to the previous generation E-Gas LPG engine, which produced 156 kW and 371 Nm.

Despite the significant increases in power and torque, fuel efficiency has also improved, along with a corresponding reduction in CO2 emissions.

Official ADR 81/02 fuel consumption certification testing is yet to be completed, so final fuel economy data will be confirmed closer to EcoLPi vehicles going on sale mid-year.

However, preliminary testing on a Falcon EcoLPi sedan points towards an overall fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions improvement potential of 12-15 per cent for liquid phase injection technology, when compared to the previous E-Gas venturi-style vapour system.

Technical highlights of the new EcoLPi powertrain include:

New fuel rail, including injectors, designed and developed specifically for the Ford EcoLPi engine New design lightweight pistons, including low-friction ring pack Higher compression ratio (12.0:1) to improve engine thermal efficiency and fuel consumption New polymer fuel lines with a low thermal mass to keep the LPG fuel liquefied New fuel line filter and in-tank filter added to prevent system/component contamination Significant modifications to the fuel tank, including all-new internals and sub-level components, as well as a new high-pressure fuel pump New catalytic converter – high density brick and new washcoat (common with I6 petrol engine) Major calibration and engine management system modifications, including a new fuel priming strategy Transmission upgrade to the acclaimed ZF six-speed automatic on all EcoLPi variants

The new EcoLPi powertrain will be available on both Falcon sedan and Falcon Ute, with both model line-ups featuring distinctive "EcoLPi" badgin goverment technology g.

The sedan EcoLPi line-up includes Falcon XT, G6, G6E and XR6 variants, while EcoLPi on Falcon Ute extends to XL, R6 and XR6 variants, in both Cab Chassis and Styleside Box body configurations.

More than 100,000 LPG-powered Falcon vehicles have been produced since a dedicated LPG system was first introduced in mid-2000, cementing Ford's position as one of the leading alternative fuel vehicle suppliers in Australia.

With the introduction of the next-generation EcoLPi system, Ford (http://www.ford.com.au) will continue to be the only manufacturer to offer dedicated LPG technology to the Australian market.

Lowering My Power Bill Was Easy

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 18, 2011– There comes a time when enough is enough. Being preyed upon by the Florida power companies like Progress Energy, OUC, FPL, etc., has just got to stop.  There are unemployed homeowners (primary earners of the home) who are struggling to pay their mortgage, never mind the never fail to show up in your mail box; power bill.  

There are homeowners who live on fixed income and can barely keep up with the power bill rates increasing year over year and must discount their quality of Life by keeping the air conditioning higher in the summer and turning the heat down in the winter.  Do you think the CEO of Progress Energy with his multimillion dollar yearly bonuses is living this way or even takes notice of the homeowners who do?  

Save 30-50% On Your Power Bill - http://LowerMyPowerBill.com

You can finally stop asking "please lower my power bill," as the Lower My Power Bill Company has come to Florida to clean up the mess the power company's have created; depleting the little money that homeowners have in this economy.

With times this tough wouldn't you know it, but the power companies continue to raise rates and report record earnings. CEO's of these power company's are getting bonuses on your hard earned dollar.  At the pace they're on, the average $200 power bill will be $500 a month over the next 10 years.  

The Lower My Power Bill Savings Program begins by scheduling an in-home energy evaluation which LowerMyPowerBill.com provides for free.

LowerMyPowerBill - ht rc helicopter and car market place tp://www.lowermypowerbill.com/Power_Bill_Savings_Tips.html provides homeowners with the ability to offset their dependency on their power company's electricity, permanently.

Since 2007 electricity costs, for Floridians, have skyrocketed and the 11% increase in 2007 was only the beginning, in 2008 the average electricity cost went up 17%, in 2009 it went up 25%, in 2010 they asked for 30% more and they're asking for another 30% for 2011. As all of these increases hit Florida's homeowners hard, right in their pocketbooks, FP&L and Progress Energy have the gall to post the largest net profits in their company's history.  

Over 50% of the money you spend on your power bill every month is spent on your air conditioning and heating (and that can rea audi ch as high as 70% in summer months), 25% is percent is spent on hot water heating, 12% is spent on your appliances, 8% spent on cooking and 5% is spent on lighting. You can see that just by turning off a few lights you really can't have much of an impact on your electric bill.

If you reduce your cooking you may only reduce your electric bill by 1% or 2% along with other appliances but the place that you can make the chevrolet most dramatic and permanent change in the money that you spend on energy is obviously in your heating and air conditioning.

"Mexico Shipping Report Q2 2011" is now available at Fast Market Research

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 18, 2011 – We have revised up our real GDP growth projection for Mexico to 4.1% in 2011, from 3.4% previously, on the back of a stronger outlook for US demand and domestic commercial credit. Yet there is still insufficient evidence that this robust performance will spill over into stronger domestic demand beyond 2012, implying that Mexican growth over the long term will continue to underperform its historic average.

Our outlook for the Mexican consumer remains cautious, too. Consumer confidence surveys suggest that the Mexican consumer remains very wary, although there has been a slight improvement in this indicator over the past few months. Over the long term we believe Mexican consumer demand will continue to be undermined by the lack of competitiveness in key sectors, lack of fiscal reform and overdependence on the US economic cycle.

* Port of Manzanillo total tonnage in 2011 of 6.55%, with average annual growth of 9.11% during our forecast period  * Port of Veracruz total tonnage in 2011 of 3.93%, with average annual growth of 5.71% during our forecast period  * Port of Manzanillo container throughput in 2011 of 9.83%, with average annual growth of 12.97% during our forecast period  * Port of Veracruz container throughput in 2011 of 5.37%, with average annual growth of 7.52% during our forecast period

Key Trends And Developments

Mexican Throughput Up On 2010 - According to figures from the Mexico's General Coordinator of Ports and Merchant Marine (CGPMM), Mexican ports handled 307,206 containers in January 2011, an increase of 20% y-o-y. Most of this traffic was handled by the country's main container port, Manzanillo, which moved 126,300 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs), an increase of 30% on January 2010 when it handled 96,900TEUs. Veracruz moved 55,661 containers in January, a y-o-y increase of 22.9%. The port of Lazero Cardenas handled 69,302TEUs, a y-o-y increase of 18.4%. Altamira handled 40,000TEUs, a y-o-y increase of 19.2%.

Tuxpan Development Announced As Mexico Pushes To Increase Port Funding - A new project at the port of Tuxpan involves the construction of a new greenfield 51,520m2 cargo terminal container facility with a capacity of 90,000 TEUs per annum and a liquids terminal that is to be used by Pemex. The development is designed to take the traffic that cannot be handled by the existing terminal because of its shallow depth, whic 2011 Dodge Durango R / T h offers limited access to ships. Liquids currently have to be transported from vessels to land via 8km of floating hoses.

APM Terminal Continu first drive audi a6 es Latin America Expansion Drive, Eyes Lazaro Cardenas Concession - Lazaro Cardenas' port authority announced plans to launch a tender to concession a second terminal at the port earlier this year. The terminal will require an investment of US$465mn, and will have the capacity to handle 2mn TEUs per annum. BMI notes that the port has no congestion problems and offers the lowest dwell time of all Mexican ports. The port is well located, providing access to Mexico City and to Monterrey for the northern market. APM Terminal's regional manager for Latin America, Henrik Pederson, has confirmed that the Dutch company is interested in bidding to operate the container terminal.

Risks To Outlook

On the upside, our outlook for US consumers is now slightly more positive than initially expected. According to the US National Retail Federation (NRF), retail industry sales (which exclude automobiles, gas stations and restaurants) for January increased 0.2% on a seasonally adjusted basis from December and 3.5% unadjusted y-o-y. 'In spite of the economic uncertainties that still exist, consumers are clearly demonstrating their desire to spend on discretionary items once again', said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay. This cautiously optimistic outlook ties in with BMI's view on US consmer spending in 2011. We have raised our 2011 US real GDP growth forecasts to 2.8% from 2.0%, with a significant lift in private consumption being the main driver. This is good news for Mexican port which import goods destined for the US.

On the downside, our outlook for Mexican consumers remains sluggish. Consumer confidence surveys suggest that the Mexican consumer remains very wary, although there has been a slight improvement in this indicator over the past few months. Over the long term we believe Mexican consumer demand will continue to be undermined by the lack of competitiveness in key sectors, lack of fiscal reform and overdependence on the US economic cycle.

WorleyParsons and AVEVA to demonstrate at FIATECH

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 18, 2011– HOUSTON, Americas, 18 April 2011: AVEVA Inc. (LSE: AVV), a leader in engineering design and information management solutions to the plant, power and marine industries, will deliver a joint case study with global EPC firm WorleyParsons on the business value of ISO 15926 interoperability at the 2011 FIATECH Technology Conference and Showcase. This year's event takes place April 18-20 at the Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort in Chandler, AZ. The case study presentation will be on Monday, April 18, from 4:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the Akimel O'otham – 2 ballroom.

AVEVA's Neil McPhater, Product Marketing Manager – Interoperability, and WorleyParson's Randy Williams, Vice Pr aston martin ttp://todaynewsmatic.com/category/alfa-romeo">alfa romeo esident – Integrated Systems, will examine how ISO 15926 interoperability has resulted in more efficient lifecycle asset management at a major U.K. North Sea J-Block project being designed by WorleyParsons.

McPhater and Williams will specifically examine how the EPC sought to improve the quality of front-end engineering design at ConocoPhillips' Jasmine Field platforms by managing inconsistency between P&ID and the 3D plant model. Using AVEVA's ISO 15926-compliant AVEVA Schematic Model Manager, AVEVA Schematic 3D Integrator and AVEVA PDMS, WorleyParsons took advantage of its existing investment in P&IDs from other software vendors.  The result was a more efficient engineering process that realized significant cost savings.

McPhater said, "It is very impressive to see a progressive EPC like WorleyParsons take advantage of ISO 15926 to benefit one of its major oil & gas projects so soon after this data exchange capability was brought to market.  Even more exciting is that this AVEVA interoperability solution, effectively linking P&IDs and 3D plant models together in a neutral, non-proprietary way, was developed under the auspices of FIATECH as part of the Proteus initiative".

Williams added, "WorleyParsons has utilized ISO 15926 interoperability functionality to harness data comparison and validation between two disparate vendor provided solutions on the Jasmine Project.  The value of vendor compatibility with ISO 15926 opens a wealth of opportunity to further automate and allow productivity enhancements in our execution workflow.  Working with AVEVA we were able to provide an integrated approach to our specific requirement which has a buick llowed us to prove the broad ranging potential in the utilization of ISO 15926 in adding business value to our project delivery services."

"United States Shipping Report Q2 2011" is now available at Fast Market Research

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 17, 2011 – BMI's outlook for the US shipping sector in 2011 is cautiously optimistic. We expect volumes at major ports to continue recovering from the downturn as the consumer outlook brightens slightly. We expect to see continued investment in expansion and development in the port sector. This investment will be driven in some cases by rising Asian demand for US coal, which has highlighted the need for greater capacity at coal export facilities on both the east and west coast. The impending completion of the expansion of the Panama Canal will also be a major driver of investment, as east-coast ports rush to prepare for the arrival of Post-Panamax vessels in 2014, and the current west-coast hubs, LA and Long Beach, seek to minimise their losses. We note, however, that many new projects will either be privately funded, or in the form of public-private partnerships (PPPs). Obama's 2012 budget proposal reflected the fact that a large number of ports have been competing for a diminishing pool of state funds. As such, we believe PPPs will increasingly come to the fore as the most efficient way for US ports to fund projects.

Headline Industry Data

* 2011 port of Los Angeles tonnage throughput forecast to rise 5.1% with annual average growth of 5.1% during our forecast period.  * 2011 port of New Yor 2011 Dodge Durango R / T k/New Jersey tonnage throughput forecast to rise 0.6% with annual average growth of 0.9% during our forecast period.  * 2011 port of Houston tonnage throughput forecast to rise 4.3 with annual average growth of 4.8% during our forecast period.  * 2011 port of Los Angeles 20-foot equivalent unit (TEU) throughput forecast to rise 3.3% with annual average growth of 3.6% during our forecast period.  * 2011 port of New York/New Jersey TEU throughput forecast to rise 5.2% with annual average growth of 4.7% during our forecast period.  * 2011 port of Houston TEU throughput forecast to rise 7.9% with annual average growth of 7.6% during our forecast period.

Key Industry Trends

Obama's Budget Proposal Buries East-Coast Dredging Hopes - BMI believes that east-coast ports campaigning for federal funding to pay for dredging projects are unlikely to succeed. President Obama's proposed 2012 budget offered little hope for ports that want to deepen their harbours to ensure they can receive the larger vessels that will pass through the Panama Canal when its US$5bn expansion is completed in 2014. Obama slashed US$913mn from the US Army Corps of Engineers' budget estimate for FY2012 - a 17% drop from the US$5.52bn allotted to the corps in 2010. The 2011 budget estimate is US$4.88bn, with the actual amount to be spent this year yet to be determined. Ports along the east coast looking to fund new deepening projects in time for the Panama Canal expansion in 2014 - Savannah, Charleston and Miami, for example - were disappointed but not surprised by the cut.

Miami Clings To Dredging Dream, State To Fund Shortfall - Miami Port Authority has welcomed the news that Florida State Governor Rick Scott plans cover a US$77mn shortfall in the port's ambitious dredging project. If the project is completed on time, it will put the port in a strong position to take advantage of increasing Post-Panamax traffic when the expansion of the Panama Canal is completed in 2014. BMI cautions, however, that the dredging process is long, as well as costly, and that Miami has already been overtaken by fellow east-coast ports New York/New Jersey and Norfolk

Imports Up At LA And Long Beach As US Consumers Splash The Cash - BMI believes that positive throughput figures for January released by the US ports of Los Angeles (LA) and Long Beach indicate the beginning of a recovery in US consumer sentiment. January marked the seventh straight month of retail sales gains in the US android application as consumers showed spending power beyond the Christmas season. This bodes well for the US box shipping sector, as growing consumer demand should translate into increasing imports of containerised goods.

Container imports at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are continuing to grow in 2011. Imports at LA increased 15% year-on-year (y-o-y) to 338,607TEUs in January, with exports up 12.6% to 159,050TEUs for the month. Imports at Long Beach rose 11% y-o-y to 242,445TEUs, with exports up 12.7% to 127,546TEUs.

Peabody Bets On mustang car Asian Coal Demand - Peabody, the world's largest private-sector coal company, has agreed a deal with port operator SSA Marine to export up to 24mn tonnes of coal a year through the planned Gateway Pacific Terminal in north-west Washington State. According to SSA Marine, permit applications for the Gateway Pacific Terminal were filed this week with state and local authorities, as well as the US Army Corps of Engineers. The application lists a fair market value for the project of US$655mn. SSA hopes to have the terminal operational by 2015, with initial capacity for 25mn tonnes a year of coal, and the potential to expand capacity to 48mn tonnes a year. Under the deal, Peabody has rights to throughput over the life of the operation and could expand its capacity in future years. BMI notes that this terminal will dwarf the joint venture by Arch Coal and Ambre Energy in nearby Longview, Washington, which will have the capacity to export 5mn tonnes a year.

Risks To Outlook

Downside risks to our outlook present themselves in the form of a slower-than-expected recovery in US consumer demand. Our lacklustre outlook for the US economy, and in particular worries over high unemployment, could negatively affect consumer spending. In turn, this would have a negative effect on import levels.

"Peru Shipping Report Q2 2011" is now available at Fast Market Research

PRLog (Press Release)– Apr 16, 2011– BMI is expecting strong growth in Peru during 2011 and is also bullish about the medium-term outlook. This means the operating environment for the ports an bmw d shipping sector should be supportive. Admittedly, there is a big political risk factor as presidential elections are due in April. That said, we project the winner will be former President Alejandro Toledo, a centre-right candidate with a proven track record in market-friendly macroeconomic management. As president in 2001-2006 Toledo achieved average annual GDP growth of 6.0%, low annual inflation (1.5%), a narrowing of the fiscal deficit, and free-trade agreements. His enthusiasm for high levels of infrastructure investment is noteworthy, and was designed to support the country's medium-term export-led growth prospects. After strong GDP growth in 2010 we believe the country will have slightly slower, but still impressive expansion rates in 2011. Fixed investment has been making the strongest contribution to GDP, but in the medium term we believe private sector consumption will increase as income levels rise and unemployment falls. While net exports have been a drag on growth, in the medium term Peru's commodity exports connect it to the China growth story. Based on our analysis, BMI forecasts 2011 GDP growth of 6.2% in Peru, compared to a deceleration on the 8.5% growth rate achieved in 2010. We expect growth to ease further to 4.9% in 2012 and to remain in the 4-5% band in subsequent years. As a result in the five years to 2015 we expect growth to average 5.3% per annum.

Headline Industry Data

?? Total Peruvian trade (imports + exports) will remain vigorous in 2011: BMI predicts real term growth of 8.3%, compared to 9.8% in 2010 ?? We are projecting box traffic at Callao to grow 12.3% this year to 1.022mnTEUs ?? Gross tonnage at Callao will also be positive (+6.5% to 18.572mn tonnes)

Key Industry Trends

Labour unrest at the Port of Callao continues to be a concern. Port operations were disrupted by strike action at Muelle Norte in late January and continued in early February. The dispute was politicised, with labour unions and opposition parties seeking to challenge plans to award a private sector concession to run the terminal. There were also separate concerns that the concession might be awarded to DP World, which already operates a terminal and would therefore have a potentially monopolistic or quasimonopolistic position in Callao.

The demands of growing mineral exports and trade with Asia require greater investment in Peruvian port infrastructure. According to a report by the Lima Chamber of Commerce, about US$2bn needs to be invested in improving the quality of Peru's ports. Peru is ranked 113th out of 133 countries for quality of port infrastructure, according to the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report (although admittedly this represents a jump of 13 places compared to an earlier report a year ago).

South America's Pacific ports have decided to come together in a strategic alliance and to share technical information. Mario Arbulu, president of Peru's state-owned ports operator Enapu, was appointed as president of the new group, called the South American Pacific Port Community (Copasud).

Key Risks to Outlook

BMI believes risks to our Peruvian port and shipping forecasts are evenly poised. There is an upside risk that, based on a fairly smooth electoral process and transition to a new administration, particularly if it is led by Alejandro Toledo, a positive private sector and foreign investor response will boost 2011 growth prospects and increase demand for th corsa e services of the port rc helicopter and car market place s and shipping sector. The downside risk is the April elections will result in increased political and trade union protests, and coupled perhaps with some inflationary pressure this will force greater-than-expected monetary tightening and slower growth, with adverse knock-on effects for the industry. In our view these two risks currently tend to offset each other.
