2 MC in brief Logistics and transport solutions Supply chain and terminal design, realization of tenders, price negotiations, moderations, benchmarking, lobbying, test runs and pilot projects Market research, funding and sales support Assessment of market potential, industry analysis and outlook, workshops, surveys, interviews, accompanied sales trips, commercial missions and sales talks, proposal for aid Safety-, Quality and Risk Management Development, implementation and improvement of quality- and risk management systems according to latest standards. Transport sector reform and liberalization Conceptual design of organization and market structures, reconciliation of interests and change management, design of legal texts and regulations, support during implementation and final implementation Founded in 2011 by the experts of Vienna Consult VerkehrsberatungsgmbH (100% subsidary of DB- International GmbH) Fully Independent private capital Core staff and more than 50 freelancer experts Located in Vienna Quality certified according to EN ISO 9001:2008 Worldwide consulting, planning, management and integration services in freight- and passenger service for all modes of transport Customers are shippers, state-run and private transport operators, international technical assistance and financing organisations, governmental bodies and banks Business development and feasibility studies Identification and evaluation of strategic growth and diversification options, feasibility studies, sensitivity analyses, forecasts, bankable business plans and financing schemes such as PPP financing models Engineering Consulting Development, planning, coordination, supervision and implementation services for transport infrastructure and facilities. 2

3 Overall objective: Customer requirements Ø Reduce the incidence of transport cost on the total cost of the product Measures to achieve the overall objective: Ø Reduce dead weight Ø Stay on water as long as possible Ø Stay on land as short as possible Ø If on land, by rail or by any ecological combination of mode of transport Consequences: Ø Turn multi-modal Ø Away from the ideology of rail vs. road vs. water Ø Towards the development of customer-oriented transport products

8 SECU - Stora Enso Cargo Unit (1) A SECU looks like a standard 40-foot ISO Container but is bigger, measuring m ( ft) and which can carry 80 tonnes (79 long tons; 88 short tons) of cargo. This is compared to the normal m ( ft) size and 26.5-tonne (26.1-long-ton; 29.2-short-ton) capacity of an ISO Container. A SECU is too big and heavy to be transported on road. By railway in Sweden. Special rail wagons needed. By ship on ferries only, not on container ships. Ports: Kotka, Oulu, Göteborg, Zeebrugge),Tilbury, Immingham, Lübeck. The benefit is that their much higher weight reduces the number of containers and therefore reduces handling cost. The drawback is that special solutions are needed.

9 SECU - Stora Enso Cargo Unit (2)

10 Examples for doublestacked rail infrastructure Australia - double-stacked trains operate between Perth, Adelaide, Darwin and Parkes, New South Wales, 6.5 m (21 ft) clearances China - using double-stacked container trains under 25 kv AC overhead lines. India - Mundra Port and Pipavav Port operate double-stacked diesel trains on 1,676 mm gauge using flat wagons with double stack 9 ft 6 in (2,896 mm) tall (high cube) containers. Netherlands - The Betuweroute, a freight rail between Rotterdam to the German border built in 2007 is prepared for double-stacking insofar that tunnels are being built to accommodate double stack The current catenary wire is too low for double stack rail transport and the upgrade is dependent on the German section of the railway connection. Panama - The rebuilt Panama Canal Railway operates double-stack container trains 47.6 miles (76.6 km) across the Isthmus of Panama from Colón on the Atlantic Ocean, to Balboa on the Pacific, near Panama City. Saudi Arabia - Saudi Railways Organization line to Dammam.
