Beringer raises red flag on Canadian West coast breakbulk capabilities

摘要

Aveteran project forwarder in Canada, Jan-Ludwig Beringer is well known among his peers for expressing himself candidly when assessing challenging situations. This was borne out in a recent telephone interview and emailed comments. "It's time to call a spade a spade," said the President and CEO of Rohde & Liesenfeld Canada Inc. from his base in Calgary, in the heart of Canada's energy industry that has been hit hard by the severe downturn in world oil markets. "The environment for new projects in western Canada has hit a low point, and the inefficiencies of our ports in handling project cargos is part of that equation."
