Global Intermodal Network
OOCL is renowned for its pioneering approach to developing intermodal connections. All means of intermodal transport are carefully integrated with trunk ocean services to offer seamless connections across continents using feeder services, barges, trucks and block trains.


Asia

OOCL has been a leader in developing intermodal connections, especially in China. We were the first to offer dedicated intermodal train services from Zhengzhou to Hong Kong in 1994, and the first Reefer-on-Rail services to locations as far as Harbin in the north of China, to Cheungdu and Xi'an in the interior. In December 1998, we launched our Reefer-on Rail service from Xian to Qingdao; the first of its kind in China. In May 1999, we launched another Reefer-on Rail from Chengdu to Shanghai. In the near future more dedicated unit train and Reefer-on-Rail services will be added to this network.

The Yangtze River and Pearl River Delta are well catered to via intermodal barges, with 35 port connections; a dedicated feeder service calls at 13 ports along the northern, central and southern coasts of China.

OOCL covers nearly all existing niche ports in Japan via its hub in Kaohsiung. Dedicated services also connect emerging markets with the Singapore Hub and fast access to Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia is available.


Europe

OOCL's pan-European network of intermodal connections covers 40 major ports throughout Europe. OOCL operates three separate dedicated Intra-European services connecting Western Europe with the Scan-Baltic (Finland, Poland, Russia) region and with Iberia (Spain, Portugal). These provide prompt connections with the deep-sea services to and from Asia and North America, as well as offering Intra-European services to help customers develop new markets.

In addition, a daily dedicated block train, the "OOCL Express" is operated in the UK between Southampton and Manchester which helps to provide a high quality and reliable inland transport. The use of barge and train connections is being developed via strategically-located inland hubs across Continental Europe. Finally, we serve the Eastern Mediterranean via Gioia Tauro with a network of feeder connections.


North America

In the USA and Canada, rail dominates inter-modal transport. OOCL works in close partnership with all major rail service providers (BNSF, Norfolk Southern, CSX, Canadian Pacific, Canadian National, Union Pacific) providing one of the fastest and most reliable services into the heart of North America. Regular double-stack trains connect ports of the East and West coasts to major inland destinations and distribution centers.

California

Winning the government contract to transport mail from New York to San Francisco, Pacific Mail (predecessor to APL) commissioned a grand sidewheel steamer for the arduous journey. Built in May 1848, she left New York that October and 144 days later arrived in San Francisco.

The California was the very first steamship to enter San Francisco Bay, and would be forever linked to the great California Gold Rush. For several years, she transported goods, mail and seekers of fortune on one of the most modern ships of the day.

A few years later, to speed the journey, one of the world’s first intermodal routes was created by Pacific Mail’s founder, William Aspinwall. One vessel would ply from New York to Panama, where passengers and cargo would be offboarded and transported across the Isthmus by mule or train. They would then board another vessel for the Panama to San Francisco run.

This sea-land-sea connection dropped the transit time to just 21 days from more than 140 and was the precursor to the development of the Panama Canal

Truman

Since the opening of the Panama Canal in 1914, virtually all ships have been constructed to fit within its locks. Conventional wisdom favored flexibility, so ships were never more than 91 feet wide or 1,000 feet long. And because these "Panamax" ships could transit the canal, they could be deployed in either the Atlantic or Pacific as market conditions changed

Jefferson

Four new Pacesetter-class vessels, including the President Jefferson, were built between 1973 and 1974. They were the first APL vessels designed to carry containers exclusively. This shift from a mix of passenger and cargo (cargoliners) to cellularized containerships signified APL’s strong commitment to containerization and intermodalism

Cleveland

After World War II, a new generation of Americans was eager to travel in style. In response, APL launched the Presidents Cleveland and Wilson, in 1947. Designed to carry 550 passengers and a crew of 352, the ships were advertised as "your American hotel abroad.”

Celebrating the Ships that Made History

From the first all water voyage connecting the U.S. east and west coasts in 1848, to the new generation 10,000-TEU mega ships ordered for 2011 delivery, APL has been a pioneer in designing vessels that push new boundaries both technologically and geographically. Today, more than 100 vessels on every major trade route connect 25,000 service points all seven continents. Here is a short biography of some vessels

ATC Reaches Another Safety Milestone!

Through April of 2008, ATC ships have safely and efficiently carried over 1,103 million barrels of crude oil and our workforce has completed over 12 million man-hours without anyone being so hurt that they were unable to return to work the next day (lost time injury). No tanker company in the world has ever achieved this safety record.

While such safety statistics are one way to measure performance, they cannot possibly convey what makes ATC different from other shipping companies. As one ATC Captain has said;

“…our main achievement is not the statistic but what we have collectively achieved in our hearts and our minds”

The employees of ATC are committed to mitigating the risks we face every day, one day at a time, one job at a time. Our goal is an entire generation of seafarers spending their entire working lives without an injury, whilst earning a decent living for their families and loved ones. With over 12 million man-hours and over six years without a lost time injury, we’re off to a good start in realizing this goal.
