The construction of Chancay port 100km north of Lime It was a surprise for the maritime and port world. That advanced port with the ability to serve Neopanamax ships, made the region reflect on the Need to improve its port facilities to attend Neopanamax ships.
Thus it was that the project of the port of Chancay was looked with concern for its neighbor Republic of Chile. That concern was isolated to admire the infrastructure of the new port. With the announcement of the construction of a railway corridor between the Republic of Peru and the Federative Republic of Brazilthe investors of the port of Chancay show their real intention to generate a bioceanic corridor for the traffic of merchandise with the countries of the East.
THE PUERTO DEL CHANCAY
Let’s start with the premise of navigation where Time is money. Maritime and port operators apply it to Rajatabla, optimizing times of their operation in the transport of merchandise from one point to another. In this context and immersed in a commercial war between the US and China, what better scenario for the People’s Republic of China to have its own bioceanic corridor?
While USA Try to recover control of the Panama Canal which is operated by that state since 12/31/1999 (according to Torrijos-Carter treaties), the channel offers services to Neopanamax class ships with greater load capacity.
He Panama Canal Today it has enough locks to attend Neopanamax class ships. However, costs for TRANSFER range from US $ 500,000 au $ S800,000 per shipand this cost is transferred to freight.
To this are added the delays of the demand for the use of the channel, threatening the premise of the sailors time is money.
The Chinese-Brazil Alliance It seems to come to generate competition in this natural monopoly. But more than competition we should talk about the independence of the channel. That is, China will achieve its own channel to place merchandise integrating the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.
But to this new chapter of the commercial war is added another element to take into account. The Train use at regional level. The Open Access to the Railway Network is not something new. Through this mechanism a carrier can unify transport in a single operator, since the railways operate as a highway on which a toll is paid.
This successful scheme already works in the European Union. In the Argentine Republic, although there is the regulatory framework, its implementation is pending; But we think about it at the regional level. The truth is that today Peru and Brazil have signed a strategic alliance outside Mercosur.
Puerto Chancay
It may be time to think of comprehensive agreements for the implementation of open access to the rail network not only nationwide, but at the regional level. With this new channel, the World shows us once again that we cannot and should not stay behind.
