РЖД насчитала 400 тысяч невостребованных вагонов

Объем подвижного состава, необходимый для вывоза грузов, заявленных к перевозке на февраль, составляет 970 тыс. вагонов, сообщил на брифинге заместитель генерального директора — начальник Центральной дирекции управления движением РЖД Михаил Глазков. Количество вагонов вычислено по Методике расчета потребного парка, согласованной с Союзом операторов железнодорожного транспорта. «Всего на сети находится около 1,38 млн вагонов всех родов, это абсолютный исторический рекорд для нашей страны. Таким образом, в феврале уже порядка 400 тыс. единиц — это излишний парк, который занимает инфраструктуру, не имея задачи», — отметил Глазков.

Вместе с тем каждые 50 тыс. вагонов на инфраструктуре общего пользования, не подкрепленные спросом, становятся причиной замедления участковой скорости примерно на 1—1,2 км/ч, по данным РЖД. А это, в свою очередь, замедляет оборот подвижного состава на сети, что требует для обеспечения вывоза того же объема грузов дополнительно 120—140 локомотивов и 600—650 локомотивных бригад.

«С октября мы начали тщательнее нормировать нахождение порожнего подвижного состава на рейсе. В результате на конец прошлого года нам удалось временно отставить от работы 75 тыс. вагонов. Это дало нам улучшение участковой скорости на 2 км/ч, увеличение погрузки на 2%, рост выгрузки на 1,7 тыс. вагонов в сутки, поднятие 458 брошенных груженых поездов. По состоянию на конец января средняя участковая скорость выросла относительно середины октября на 5 км/ч, до 39,3 км/ч», — сообщил Глазков.

По его словам, в текущем году работа продолжается, в частности, 28 января госкомпания разослала железнодорожным администрациям «пространства 1520» факсограмму, запрещающую с 2 февраля вход порожнего парка на сеть РЖД. Ограничение не распространяется на вагоны с российской припиской, однако оно касается иностранного парка, находящегося в аренде у российских компаний.

«Цель решения — максимизация эффективности использования отечественного подвижного состава для перевозок по сети РЖД. Срок запрета не определен, но мы уже видим, что в феврале его отмена нецелесообразна», — заявил Глазков.

Houthis to resume attacks on Israeli ships in Red Sea

New York, 11 March (Argus) — Yemeni rebel group the Houthis today said it will resume attacks on "Israeli ships" passing through the Red Sea, following the group's 7 March warning that it would restart if humanitarian aid was not let into Gaza. The group paused its attacks on ships after a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza went into effect on 19 January. But now it will resume its "ban on the passage of all Israeli ships in the designated operations zones in the Red and Arabian sea, as well as Bab-al-Mandab strait and the Gulf of Aden," according to posts it made on social media sites X and Telegram. "Any Israeli ships attempting to violate this ban shall be targeted in the declared zones of operations," the group said. "This ban shall continue until crossing to the Gaza Strip are reopened and aid, food and medicine are allowed in." The group in a 7 March video had said it would resume attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea if humanitarian aid was not allowed into Gaza . "If the enemy continues, after four days, to stop humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip, including food, medicine, then we will return to continuing our sea operations against the enemy," it said in the video.

Protest blocks Vale's iron ore rail loadings in Brazil

Protest blocks Vale's iron ore rail loadings in Brazil

London, 11 March (Argus) — Protesters blocked Vale's Carajas railway on 9 March, according to a letter by LBH Brasil port agency sent to market participants. The blockade may disrupt iron ore shipments to Ponta da Madeira in northern Brazil and weigh on Atlantic Capesize rates, as previously happened in December 2024 . "Vale's Carajás Railroads has been impacted since 9 March, 2025, due to an occupation by protestors. The occupation has disrupted rail traffic along the corridor. As of today, the railroad remains interrupted. There are currently no concrete indications of immediate operational impacts on cargo transport. We are closely monitoring developments to assess any potential effects and will keep you informed as new information becomes available," LBH said in its letter. Brazilian iron ore exports fell in early December after a similar blockade of the Carajás railway . This month shipments reached just 6.2mn t in the first three working days of the month despite the Carnival holidays, and are projected to reach 39.3mn t in March, 49pc up from 26.3mn t in the same month last year, according to preliminary data. But final volumes could be significantly lower if the blockade will continue. Vale, the iron ore producer that owns this railway, has not commented.

Tanker and cargo vessel collide in North Sea: Update

Adds details from tanker management London, 10 March (Argus) — An oil tanker and a container vessel are on fire in the UK North Sea after colliding earlier today, the UK coastguard said. Shiptracking data appear to show the US-flagged Medium Range (MR) tanker Stena Immaculate was at anchor when it was hit by Portuguese-flagged container vessel Solong. The Stena Immaculate's manager, US-based logistics company Crowley, said the incident resulted in a ruptured cargo tank containing jet fuel. It said all its employees on board are safe and accounted for. Market sources told Argus that the tanker was likely carrying jet fuel and diesel. Vortexa data show the tanker was on route to the UK's port of Immingham on the east coast of England, from the Greek port of Agioi Theodoroi. The Solong was plying a route from the east coast of Scotland to Rotterdam, according to vessel tracking data. "The incident remains ongoing and an assessment of the likely counter pollution response required is being enacted," the coastguard said.

Oil tanker and cargo vessel collide in the UK North Sea

London, 10 March (Argus) — An oil tanker and container vessel have collided in the UK North Sea. The alarm was raised at 09.48 GMT on Monday, the UK's coastguard said. Shiptracking data appear to show that the US-flagged Medium Range (MR) tanker Stena Immaculate was hit by Portuguese-flagged container vessel Solong while at anchor off the coast of east Yorkshire. Video footage shows both vessels on fire. The Stena Immaculate was on route to the UK's port of Immingham on the east coast of England with an 18,000t cargo of diesel after departing from the Greek port of Agioi Theodoroi, according to Vortexa data. Market sources told Argus that the tanker was carrying jet fuel and diesel, although this has not been confirmed. "The incident remains ongoing and an assessment of the likely counter pollution response required is being enacted," the coastguard said.

Houthis threaten to resume Red Sea attacks

Houthis threaten to resume Red Sea attacks

London, 10 March (Argus) — Yemen's Houthi group has threatened to resume attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea if humanitarian aid is not allowed into Gaza. "We are announcing a four-day notice," the group said in a video statement on 7 March. "This is to allow mediators to do what they do. If the enemy continues, after four days, to stop humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip, including food, medicine, then we will return to continuing our sea operations against the enemy." The four-day deadline expires in the evening of 11 March local time. Israeli energy and infrastructure minister Eli Cohen signed an order on 9 March to cut electricity supply to Gaza in an effort to pressure Palestinian group Hamas to release the remaining Israeli hostages being held in the territory. The Houthis began their attacks in the Red Sea in November 2023 in what they said was a campaign of solidarity with Palestinians in Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza. The group announced a cessation of hostilities against ships in the Red Sea in January this year, with the exception of Israeli-owned and Israeli-flagged vessels. The Houthi campaign has weighed heavily on trade flows between Europe and Asia through the Suez Canal, forcing many shipowners to take the longer and more expensive route around southern Africa's Cape of Good Hope.
