Madrid, June 24, 2022.- Shippers coping with record-high fuel surcharges are advised by diesel supply experts to simply bear with it until more (and cheaper) crude oil is available, perhaps later this year but probably not until 2023.

Madrid, 13 de mayo del 2022.- Full shipment visibility across supply chains has been an elusive goal for decades. Sensor technologies enhance visibility, but until recently affordable track and trace solutions have been mainly passive. That is, data recorders placed inside containers, trailers, railcars and/or SKUs record shipment condition in real time, end-to-end, but are unable to transmit the data, which is downloaded on completion of the shipment. Active sensors which report data as it’s collected have been available but not widely used, due to their higher cost and shorter battery life.
