AbstractSince the second quarter results of P&O Nedlloyd (P&ON) were published in mid-1997 showing a profit of US$36 million the industry heaved a sigh of relief and the shipping line gained a new measure of respect for its successful transition.

Here were two relatively major shipping lines that as individual companies were struggling to compete against the large players.
