Definition of indicator	Quarterly container productivity at New Zealand ports
Export date	11/06/2013

Core indicator information
Nature of data	Quantitative
Data source	Data supplied by the ports
Frequency	Quarterly
Disaggregation	Main container ports
Timeliness	2-3 months lag
Quality of the data	Reliable

Napier data	Napier has provided the Ministry with additional information correcting the calculation of its ship and vessel rates in line with the Waterline/BITRE methodology.

Port facilties
Auckland	Gantry cranes. Cargo via container terminals only.
Tauranga	Gantry cranes. Cargo via container terminals only. One crane added during 2009.
Napier	Mobile cranes.
Wellington	Gantry cranes. Cargo via container terminals only. One crane removed during 2010.
Lyttelton	Gantry cranes. Cargo via container terminals only. Some results affected by 2010/11 earthquakes.
Otago	Gantry cranes. Cargo via container terminals only.

Definitions	These definitions come from the Waterline publications of the Australian Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics
	http://www.bitre.gov.au/publications/04/Files/waterline49.pdf
Data source	Data supplied by the ports, and is based on container movements (not TEU, or twenty foot equivalents) involving container ships
Crane rate	The number of containers a crane lifts on and off a container ship in an hour
Ship rate	The number of containers moved on and off a container ship in an hour
Vessel rate	The number of containers moved on and off a container ship in an hour of labour
	The difference between ship and vessel rates is due to allocated crane hours/elapsed crane hours
Availability of forecast data	No
