2018 SC Port Guide

South Carolina’s seaports and infrastructure resource

Seventh Edition

Message from the President & CEO

F

iscal year 2018 was a record-setting year for our state port system that will be remembered not just in terms of the highest container volumes ever achieved, but in the momentum of projects and efforts to modernize our port for continued success in the big-ship era.

South Carolina Ports Authority’s (SCPA) growth plans were ambitious, and we achieved a 3 percent increase in container volumes on the heels of 10 percent growth last fiscal year. Our growth is a reflection of the Southeast’s booming economy and a testament to the benefit of a state-owned-and-operated port – the recruitment of broad-based, port-related industry is strong.

Building upon the success of Inland Port Greer and the increased industry demand for intermodal rail to move containerized freight, SCPA expanded our footprint in FY2018 with the opening of Inland Port Dillon in April. We also completed the fill phase of our new facility, the Hugh K. Leatherman Sr. Terminal, and look forward to seeing it take shape over the next year with a planned opening in 2021. Efforts to modernize and increase capacity of the Wando Welch Terminal continued in FY2018 with the completion of a nearly three-year effort to strengthen and refurbish the wharf. We celebrated the arrival of two new 155’ cranes and launched the process of raising four existing cranes to better accommodate the big ships calling Charleston today and in the future.

One of the biggest accomplishments of our fiscal year was the beginning of the construction on the Charleston Harbor Deepening Project to 52 feet in February. We ended FY2018 with three Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Company dredges at work in the Entrance Channel and are already looking ahead to the next construction contract to be awarded in the fall of 2018 for dredging the harbor to the Wando Terminal.

We have an aggressive target of 1.3 million pier containers for FY2019, which reflects volume growth that is consistent with our expectations for the further development of our region’s cargo base, along with the capable infrastructure provided by the Port. SCPA has a new strategic plan guiding the everyday efforts of our dedicated team of nearly 600 employees, and we look forward to continuing to serve our region’s growing economy with a modern port.

Productivity and Efficiency

Financial Sustainability

The S.C. Ports Authority and the State of South Carolina are investing $2.3 billion in port-dependent infrastructure.

These projects include the new 280-acre Hugh Leatherman Sr. Container Terminal (HLT); construction of a dedicated highway connecting HLT to I-26; deepening of Charleston Harbor to 52-feet (15.8 meters), making it the deepest port on the U.S. East Coast; and robust investments in new ship-to-shore cranes, RTGs, terminal operating systems, and inland ports.

Charleston’s remarkable growth streak continues, now topping 58% container growth since 2011, well above average for the broader U.S. container trade.

However, a port is only as strong as the freight base it serves.

Intermodal volume is up 180% since 2011 establishing strong connections to discretionary markets. Closer to home, an aggressive and integrated statewide economic development effort is continuing to deliver success in attracting large-scale port-dependent firms such as Samsung, Volvo, Mercedes Benz Vans, Harbor Freight Tools, Dollar Tree, and major expansions from BMW and Michelin.

South Carolina Ports are known the world over for reliable, highly efficient port service. The Port of Charleston remains the most productive port in North America. We turn ships and trucks faster and more reliably than any competing port. Many of the most demanding brands in world choose the Port of Charleston because of our proven record as a high-performance, low-risk, low cost place to do business.

The South Carolina Ports Authority is in a strong financial position, and we aim to keep it that way. We have an aggressive multi-billion dollar CAPEX plan.

Our commercial base of business is growing. We are winning more freight from inland markets and we are growing our home market through economic development.

The volume forecast is strong.

But the challenges ahead are significant. We need to deliver a higher rate of return on capital invested in order to meet our goals. The business plan involves innovation in every facet of the business, aggressive business development, excellent client services, and the commitment of our entire S.C. Port team to unity and fulfilment of our corporate values.

S

outh Carolina Ports continued its above market growth rate in FY2018 setting a new annual container volume record and making significant progress on key capital projects. The Port of Charleston handled 2.2 million TEU in FY2018, a three percent increase over the previous fiscal year and a new annul record.

Since 2011, Charleston has been the fastest growing major container port in the U.S. at 58%.

“SCPA had an ambitious growth plan for the 2018 fiscal year, and our progress across all business segments is a true accomplishment,” said SCPA president and CEO Jim Newsome. “Growth of 3 percent in FY2018 on the heels of 10 percent growth last fiscal year reflects broad-based expansion of the Port’s cargo base as well as strong operational performance

16

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

of our port. Our container volume growth is further driven by the upsizing of vessels, with 18 of SCPA’s 26 weekly container services utilizing neo-Panamax ships.”

Ocean carriers have steadily been increasing the size of containerships calling USEC ports over the last few years. In the summer of 2015 the average containership calling Charleston was 4,961 TEU. In the summer of 2018 the average ship was 7,134 TEU, an increase of 43%. Ships in the Asia trades calling Charleston now average 9,180 TEU. Much of that recent increase in capacity happened in the spring of 2018. Ocean carriers reorganized their Asia deployments resulting in a rapid increase in vessel size and an upward surge in volume over successive months.

June container volumes

were exceptional, marking the first time our Port has handled more than 200,000 TEUs in a single month. We achieved the three highest months of container volume in the Port’s his-

tory in March, May and June. As compared to FY2010, SCPA has grown by over 900,000 TEUs for a compound annual growth rate of seven percent. Such growth is a significant accomplishment

that reflects a broad expansion of the Port’s cargo base, the commitment of our staff and the overall success of our maritime community.

In breakbulk, or non-con-

tainerized cargo, Charleston handled 760,501 pier tons from July through June. Within the breakbulk business segment, SCPA moved 232,075 vehicles across the docks of the Colum-

2014 SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

bus Street Terminal in FY2018.

Expansion of cargo at Inland Port Greer played a key role in the Port’s overall growth. The facility handled 10,184 rail lifts in June for a total 117,812 rail lifts during the fiscal year. Success of Inland Port Greer was a driver in SCPA’s decision to open a second facility, Inland Port Dillon, in April. Inland Port Dillon is now fully-operational and handling import trains 6 days/week and export trains 5 days per week.

In addition to volume growth, SCPA achieved significant progress of key projects in FY2018. The nearly three-year effort to strengthen and refurbish the Wando Welch Terminal wharf was completed and all three terminal berths returned to normal operations. Also at WWT, a new ship-to-shore (STS) crane with 155 feet of lift height was commissioned.

18

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

By the end of the year, two additional cranes of the same size will become operational, with one additional crane to be delivered in late 2019 A $370 million project underway at WWT will increase capacity by 700,000 TEUs by the end of 2019. Upon completion, the terminal will offer 13 STS cranes, including nine cranes with 155 feet of lift height; 62 rubber-tired gantry cranes and 23 empty handlers; 3,800 feet of wharf, capable of handling three neo-Panamax ships; an enhanced traffic pattern and 40 gates, including 27 inbound and 13 outbound, for continued efficiency and low turn times; and a new 35-acre chassis yard for the proposed Southern States Chassis Pool.

Charleston’s harbor deepening project met several milestones in FY2018. Construc-

tion on the Charleston Harbor Deepening Project to 52 feet, which began in February, is well underway with three Great Lakes Dock and Dredge Company dredges working in the Entrance Channel. The next construction contract will be awarded in the fall for dredging the harbor to the Wando Terminal. That contract includes widening the turning basin to 1,650 feet, a benefit that will be realized prior to the slated completion of this construction phase in March 2021.

The goal of Charleston harbor deepening project is to provide 24/7 access for very large containerships up the 18,000 TEU range. When complete in 2020, Charleston will be the deepest port on the U.S. East Coast at 52 feet mean low water and able to work ships drafting 48 feet on all tides.

Progress continued on the construction of Hugh Leatherman Terminal, the only new container terminal under construction in the U.S. More than 3.75 mm metric tons of surcharge stone have been placed to form the foundation of the terminal; the wharf contract was award and Phase 1 construction is underway; design of the site package is nearing completion and will be posted for bidding before the end of 2018; new ship-to-shore cranes are being fabricated in China; and a permit for dredging the channel and turning basin has been received.

Phase one of the HLT is expected to be complete in 2021 and will add approximately 628,000 TEU. When complete HLT will add 2.4 million TEU of new capacity to the Port of Charleston container operation.

Ready Now Industrial real estate is all in on S.C. Ports. Great opportunity for expansion-minded BCOs.

T

here’s never been a better time for BCOs to grow their presence at South Carolina Ports. A burst of speculative industrial building is giving prospects immediate availability of new distribution center space near the Port of Charleston and Inland Port Greer.

Approximately 4 million square feet of speculative Class A industrial buildings are available or about to become available in the Charleston Metro Area. Several buildings totaling 925,000 square

20

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

feet have already been leased.

The Greenville-Spartanburg area near Inland Port Greer is seeing similar investment with more than 2 million square feet of new spec buildings. Those are big numbers for markets that are traditionally oriented towards build-to-suit industrial buildings.

“It’s exciting. We’re seeing a jump in speculative investment near SC Port facilities and it’s certainly opening doors for us to compete for new and bigger projects,” said Micah Mallace, Director, Special Projects for

SC Ports.

Mallace said the leap is driven not by a single factor, but a convergence of factors, including demand for new consumer goods distribution infrastructure, expansion of advanced manufacturing, and available capital.

“Final mile distribution has been in the spotlight, but retailers are now focusing on and realizing a new international supply chain methodology to solve for both ecommerce and traditional brick and mortar sales,” Mallace said. “This new

methodology requires inbound inventory be located closer to the consumption market which is driving demand for new import DCs in our market.

“Everyone knows e-commerce is big and growing, but from a logistics perspective retailers are still figuring out how to best manage online fulfillment in the context of their traditional DC model that supports brickand-mortar stores,” Mallace dded. “They’re figuring out if they can use their existing buildings or if they need new ones, and how many new ones,

and where they should be located. This context is driving demand for potential new import DCs in our market.”

Mallace said the e-commerce model requires most retailers to carry more inventory in their DCs so sales-to-inventory ratios are higher and more capacity is needed. E-commerce also forces retailers to focus on one or two day delivery windows to population centers vs. the old model which focused on delivery to a limited array of retail stores or regional DCs. These dynamics are still evolving.

”We hear from a lot of firms that are accustomed to a transit-time-oriented model – get the international container to the DC as fast as possible.

“But they are telling us now the focus is speed of outbound delivery from DC to consumer.

To offset higher cost associated with higher inventory levels, companies are focusing on variable costs such as demurrage, chassis rentals, and container per diems to lower their total landed costs.”

Changing transit times have played a key role in Asia trade

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

21

gains made by U.S. East Coast ports versus West Coast ports.

Since 2000, USEC ports have been making steady gains in Asia import trade shares. Those gains kicked into overdrive recently.

The Panama Canal expansion and raising of the Bayonne Bridge at the Port of New York/ New Jersey have allowed a new, larger generation of containerships to call USEC ports, which previously were restricted due to vessel size limitations. This has given importers added capacity and faster transit times.

In 2000, about 82% of the import Asia trade moved via USWC ports. In 2008, just before the recession of 2009, that share had dropped to 72% while the US East and Gulf Coasts share increased to 28%.

In 2017 the USWC share was 65% vs. 35% for the US East and Gulf Coasts. This eastward

22

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

shift in the Asia import trade is driving importers traditionally running USWC exclusive operations to consider new distribution locations in the Eastern U.S. The Port of Charleston is well-positioned to serve this consumer goods market segment because of its record of fast delivery and location in the Southeast. Charleston delivers 72 million consumers within a one-day truck trip and turns trucks on terminal on average in less than an hour for a twoway move. One benefit retailers are finding particularly attractive is the ability to have access to hot import loads immediately on vessel discharge.

This is a unique offering. It allows retailers to meter the flow of their boxes on each week’s vessels, pulling the hottest loads even while the vessel is still working and letting others

dwell as-needed depending on supply demand and in port free time.

Inland Port Greer adds a twist in that it is 212 miles inland and within a day’s truck drive of 90 million consumers. IPG is served by overnight intermodal trains from Charleston and offers 7-days free time and 24/7 gates, so it is ideal for both minimizing inland trucking and minimizing variable costs such as demurrage, chassis rental, and per diems on containers.

It’s a very flexible model. It’s also on I-85 halfway between Atlanta and Charlotte, which is an attractive regional position.

Then there’s the manufacturing component driven by South Carolina’s success in attracting foreign direct investment.

“It’s no secret that South Carolina has done a phenomenal job with advanced manufacturing, particularly in the automotive

24

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

sector,” Mallace said. “Volvo’s new North American plant has opened. Mercedes Vans recently began building Sprinter Vans in North Charleston. BMW has more than $9 billion invested here. All of their Tier 1 suppliers are growing. Michelin is growing. Samsung opened its first U.S. plant here. Toray Manufacturing is up and running in the Upstate. Boeing is building jets in Charleston.

That growth is certainly giving investors confidence that supporting suppliers will continue to locate in the area, including big-name 3PLs.” Some of that confidence is due to the long-cycle nature of manufacturing, which typically involves production facilities with decades-long depreciation plans.

The third factor is favorable access to capital, which is a global financial condition, but

it has had specific impact for spec developers in port-dependent South Carolina locations.

In the last two years, U.S. industrial real estate has been delivering safe returns and, with the growing economy, capital has moved into secondary and tertiary markets.

The Port of Charleston market has had pent-up demand building since emerging from the recession of 2009. Charleston container volume is up an incredible 58% since 2011 yet no spec buildings were constructed until the capital markets became favorably aligned. Many of the developers rushing to build capacity in the Charleston and Inland Port Greer markets today were here eight to 10 years ago, but were unable to finalize deals until recently.

The spec buildings in the Charleston market are generally

being built in the Jedburg, Palmetto Commerce Park/Ladson, and Hanahan areas.

The Jedburg zone is between exits 196 and 194 on I-26, just west of Summerville, S.C. Seven Class A industrial buildings totaling approximately 2.7 million square feet are located in the Jedburg zone. Many of these buildings are expandable, yielding a total build-out of more than 4 million sf. Trucks serving Jedburg can expect to get three to five turns per day from Port of Charleston container terminals. Four of the buildings are rear-load facilities while three are 500,000+sf cross-dock facilities well-suited to import deconsolidation centers. The first spec building in the area, a 307,000sf cross dock, has been leased.

Palmetto Commerce Park is located in the North Charleston/Ladson area. There are sev-

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

25

en new Class A spec buildings in this zone totaling 1.5 million sf, with one already leased.

Full build-out of these seven buildings is approximately 2 million sf. Six of the buildings are traditional rear load and one is 420,000sf cross-dock operation. Trucks serving the vicinity of Palmetto Commerce Park can expect to get four to five truck turns per day from Port of Charleston container terminals.

One spec building, 247,000sf North Pointe 1, is on North Rhett Avenue in Hanahan.

This rear-load building is especially close to North Charleston Terminal. Truckers serving North Rhett can expect to get six moves or more per day from North Charleston Terminal and about four moves per day from Wando Welch Terminal.

The industrial real estate market around Inland Port Greer is booming as well with eight buildings total-

ing more than 2 million sf of spec space either currently available or about to become available. All of these facilities are in very close proximity to Inland Port Greer, giving them the unique advantage of being close to a marine terminal 200 miles inland and halfway between Atlanta and Charlotte on I-85. Two of these buildings are designed for large cross-dock operations. One is more than 500,000sf and expandable up to 1 million sf. The other is approximately 400,000sf.

While the S.C. Ports Authority is not a real estate developer, we do have a keen interest in filling these buildings with portdependent clients. To that end, we have a dedicated webpage to keep prospects up to date on spec buildings near SC Port facilities.

Capital Ideas South Carolina Investing $2.3 Billion In Port Performance

T

he South Carolina Ports Authority and the State of South Carolina are investing heavily in enhanced infrastructure to handle growing business via South Carolina Ports. Between the port and the state, more than $2.3 billion is being committed to port-dependent projects touching every aspect of the supply chain — shipping channels, marine terminals, technology, roads and rail.

“It’s vitally important that we increase capacity and enhance our ability to handle larger ships and the surges of cargo they bring,” said Jim Newsome, President and CEO of SC Ports.

“The port business is a longcycle industry, but the pace of change we are facing is fast given how long it takes to make major improvements in infrastructure and the costs of those changes.

Our ocean carrier and cargo

owner customers are counting on us to deliver that capacity and high performance. They are investing in SC Ports by committing assets – ships, manufacturing plants, distribution centers. They’re entrusting us with their supply chains. That $2 billion commitment is not just for our own sake, it’s for the future of our customers.”

Harbor Deepening

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the State of South Carolina and the SCPA are in the process of deepening Charleston Harbor to handle ships drafting 48 feet on all tides and a maximum draft of 52 feet. To accomplish that level of performance, the channel is being dredged to 52 feet mean low water in the inner channel and 54 feet MLW in the outer channel. When complete in 2020, Charleston will be the deepest port on the

32

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

U.S. East Coast.

Dredging has already started in the outer channel. Dredging of the inner channel to Wando Welch Terminal is expected to begin early in 2019. Remaining phases will include deepening of the inner channel to Hugh Leatherman Terminal (which is under construction) and widening of the turning basin at Wando Welch Terminal.

The total cost for the project is around $558 million, with the federal government share being $287 million and the State of South Carolina share being $271 million.

This deepening project has proceeded at a record pace so far. The feasibility study, design, and preconstruction engineering phases took only 6.3 years. Accomplishing a major deep-draft navigation project such as this in 10 years, start-to-finish, is a remarkable achievement.

Hugh Leatherman Terminal

Charleston is the only major port currently constructing a new container terminal. HLT is on track for a phase 1 completion of 2021 with additional phases scheduled for 2026 and 2032. When complete, HLT will add 3,510 feet of linear berth, 280 acres of container yard, and approximately 2.4 million TEU of added capacity for the Port of Charleston. The shipping channel will be dredged to 52 feet MLW. Important project milestones over the last year include: • Completed delivery and placement of more than 3.75 million metric tons of surcharge stone to form the terminal’s base material.

• Wharf construction contract was awarded and construction has begun.

• Design of the site package continues with the

contract expected to be awarded and construction to start early in 2019.

Five new ship-to-shore cranes with 169 feet of vertical clearance and 228 feet of outreach (sufficient size to work 19,000 TEU ships) have been ordered.

A new dredging permit for the terminal turning basin has been received.

Construction work continues on a dedicated highway connection between HLT and I-26. This one-mile highway will provide the fastest possible transition between the terminal and highway and keep port trucks off local roads. It will also serve as a connector to the state’s new intermodal rail facility a short distance from HLT.

Existing Facilities & Operations

While building new capacity is critical, ensuring that our existing terminals are running efficiently is equally important.

SC Port Authority is making large-scale investments in terminal updates, new equipment and IT solutions to meet the needs of growing customers.

Currently South Carolina Ports has 13 ship-to-shore cranes with lift heights of 155 feet to 169 feet, 62 Konecrane RTGs, and 23 empty handlers on order. A new 35-acre chassis yard is in progress as is the expansion of container gates to 40. The traffic flow patterns at our container terminals is being studied with an eye toward changes that minimize or eliminate choke points. A new Terminal Operating System is being purchased and installed. A $370 million refurbishment of the WWT

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

35

wharf has been completed and container cranes at WWT have been raised and new cranes installed. Collectively, these projects add 700,000 TEU of added capacity on the existing container terminal footprint.

New Intermodal Rail Terminal

Palmetto Railways is building a new, dual-served intermodal rail gateway at the Port of Charleston on a 118-acre site near HLT. Once complete, Palmetto Railways will operate the Navy Base Intermodal Facility serving both CSX and Norfolk Southern Class 1 railroads. The new terminal will be designed to receive and depart multiple-unit trains (up to 10,000 feet) and feature a private road connection to the SCPA’s new Hugh Leatherman Terminal. Approximately 200 acres of property is available in

36

SOUTH CAROLINA PORT GUIDE

proximity to the ICTF for railserved development.

Last September, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued a “record of decision” on Palmetto Railways’ plan to build and operate the new facility. The Corps has issued a permit for the project under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Construction is expected to begin in 2019.

Construction of the Navy Base Intermodal Facility will have immediate short- and long-term benefits for the community.

It is estimated that over 3,000 jobs will be supported by the construction of the facility and related infrastructure. The increase in total economic activity in the region is estimated to be $450 million during construction. Other benefits include economic development, supporting infrastructure demands, and

sustaining our environmental responsibility.

All of this investment, more than $2.3 billion worth, is designed to prepare the port and its customers for the future.

Ocean carrier consolidation has led to a significant concentration of capacity into less than 10 major container lines serving the U.S., down from more than 20 just a few years ago. As a consequence, ship size has increased dramatically, especially on the USEC where Panama Canal and Bayonne Bridge limitations used to restrict the size of vessels calling ports. With those two restrictions greatly relaxed, ships up to 14,000 TEU are routinely calling the Port of Charleston and other USEC ports, driving the need for larger cranes, more efficient operations, increased gate infrastructure, deeper harbors, and ultimately, new

terminals.

“Of course, we as a port see these challenges and have been preparing for decades for them,” Newsome said. “From our clients’ perspective however, they are making decisions today based on their perception of our ability to handle their future business. They may be looking to locate a new manufacturing plant or distribution center; or they may be making the decision to make Charleston a primary gateway for their supply chain. In either case the BCO is putting their trust and faith in us to deliver the performance they need now and in the future.

They need to be comfortable that we can handle their growth, and when we handle their business it drives jobs and prosperity in South Carolina. That’s why we’re investing so heavily in our infrastructure.”
