- Much smaller sea-going vessels are used for other dry bulk than for coal and iron ore which are able to enter into more draught restricted ports.
- Sea-Invest is also dominant if the ports of Ghent and Dunkirk were included in the geographic market as the terminals handling coal and iron ore for non-captive customers are controlled by Sea-Invest.
- Sea-Invest controls among others the following terminals handling coal, iron ore and other dry bulk: ABT in Antwerp, GCT and CBM in Ghent and Sea-Bulk in Dunkirk.
- On the other hand, as regards the transhipment traffic for coal and iron ore, the relevant geographic would be broader, covering all main deep-sea ports in the Gothenburg — Le Havre range including UK and Irish deep-sea ports.
- Considering the limited volumes of fringe customers and focus of EMO-EKOM on the increasing coal imports to Germany, the costs of such veto for Sea-Invest would not be outweighed by its benefits.
- There are no indications that the entry of Sea-Invest as a shareholder in the coal and iron ore terminal EMO-EKOM could lead to coordination with HES and Manufrance in other dry bulk.
- In case of coal transported from non-draught restricted origins (representing more than 70 % of all coal discharged in the ARA range), the sea transport costs difference between Antwerp and Rotterdam amounts in average to around 50 % of the handling tariff.
- Sea-Invest would have no incentive to relax ABT’s competition vis-à-vis EMO-EKOM as it will need to attract tonnages to Antwerp as it will not, contrary to Rotterdam, profit in any significant way from the increased imports of coal to Germany.
- The decision concludes that the transaction does not lead to any competition concerns in the market for terminal services for transhipment traffic for coal and iron ore considering the limited transhipment volumes of Sea-Invest and EMO-EKOM and the presence of multiple alternatives terminals.
- The decision therefore first analyses the most important parts of the total logistic costs for importing coal and iron ore. Further, the decision summarises the results of the in-depth investigation as regards the possibilities of individual customers of Sea-Invest, EMO-EKOM and other terminals to switch between Antwerp (or even Ghent and Dunkirk) on the one hand and Rotterdam and other Dutch ports on the other hand.
