`
`ter in Shanghaiearlier this year
`included many presentations with some
`worrisome figures. For
`instance, Dr.
`Richard Tucker from Shell Technology
`opened his presentation with the fact
`that 2050 will see the world popula-
`tion rising to 9 billion people — 2 billion
`more than today — and by then 75%
`of the population will be living in cities.
`And | can tell you here that our visit to
`Shanghai gave more thana little insight
`into what that will mean. It's a vertical
`
`cy in its Record Run economy event of
`a few years ago, using exclusively Shell
`FuelSave Diesel and Shell Rimula R6
`
`LME. Another high-profile relationship,
`she said, is in the developmentof spe-
`cial race lubricants for Ferrari.
`The Rimula brand will be familiar to
`
`readers of Diesel Progress acquainted
`with markets outside of North America
`
`— it is the most recognized heavy-duty
`diesellubricant in much of the world and
`the strongest brand in China.
`Shell goes to great lengths to keep the
`brand in front of Chinese customers. An
`
`example is the traveling Trucker Road-
`show. This is a China-nationwide event
`that was introduced by Shell 11 years
`ago to interact with Chinese truck driv-
`
`drivers through an interpreter, and while
`the trucks are mostly modern, the truck-
`ing culture is out of the early days, with
`little hours-of-service regulation and a
`huge proportion of the transportation
`provided by owner-operators or very
`small fleets.
`Overall, our visit to Shanghai was
`very instructive, showing how important
`this region is not just to Shell's efforts
`locally, but globally in developing the
`next generation of lube oils to boost fuel
`economy worldwide. As truck OEMs
`continue to develop products around
`the globe, partnerships that cover mul-
`timarket requirements are going to be
`increasingly necessary to meetfuelef-
`ficiency goals of the future. dp
`
`Against this background, Turner said
`that in Shell's prediction, two-thirds of

`The American Rental Association'slatest forecast expects the U.S. equipmentrental industry to grow 7.3% in 2014 to reach
`$35.7 billion in revenues — almost back to pre-recession levels. Equipmentrental revenue in the U.S. is expected to reach
`$49.8 billion in 2018.
`
`RENTAL REVENUES
`CONTINUE COMEBACK
`ARA expects revenuesfor rental equipmentin the U.S. to approach $50billion by 2018
`
`he equipmentrental industry in
`
`i the United States is expected
`
`to grow 7.3% in 2014 to reach
`$35.7 billion in revenues — almost back
`to pre-recession levels — according
`to the American Rental Association's
`
`latest forecast from the ARA
`(ARA)
`Rental Market Monitor. These figures
`are slightly below the ARA’s previous
`July forecast of 7.6% growth.
`“The revision in our expectations has
`to do with the general economy and
`with the construction industry, where
`growth this year has not met expecta-
`tions,” said Scott Hazelton, director of
`Industry Consulting at
`IHS,
`formerly
`IHS GlobalInsight, the global informa-
`tion company that compiled the data for
`the ARA. “Construction will continue to
`
`improve in the fourth quarter, but it is
`notlikely to accelerate enough to reach
`our earlier projections.”
`
`the forecast said
`Nonetheless,
`that the equipment rental
`industry's
`growth rate will more than triple the
`expected growth of the U.S. gross
`domestic product (GDP) in 2014 and
`exceed the growth of the industries
`it serves. According to the forecast,
`equipment
`rental
`revenue will con-
`tinue to grow overthe next four years,
`reaching $49.8 billion in 2018. This
`continues a growth trend that began
`after revenues bottomed out in 2010
`at $26.8 billion — down from $36.5
`billion in 2008 — due to the effects of
`the recession.
`
`Among the equipment rental seg-
`ments, construction and industrial
`equipment as well as general
`tool
`will experience near double-digit
`rental revenue growth in the U.S.
`over the next four years according to
`the forecast. The two segments are
`
`expected to average 8.8 and 9.7%
`annual growth, respectively, from 2015
`through 2018. The party and event
`segment, while not growing as dra-
`matically, is expected to average 3.2%
`annual growth during that sametime.
`The ARAforecast revenue growth
`for Canada at 5.4% in 2014 to $4.9
`billion. Growth from 2015 through
`2018 will average 4.8% annually,
`with 2018 revenues expected to hit
`$5.9 billion.
`The ARA said it expects U.S rental
`companies to invest more than 30%
`of their revenue in new equipment
`over the next five years. Total invest-
`ment is projected to reach $11.9 bil-
`lion in 2014 and grow to nearly $15.5
`billion in 2018. dp

`
`| often like
`t this time of year,
`to make a “wish list” for the in-
`
`| would like to
`dustry. Overall,
`see the industry prosper, and while in
`years past, some of my wishes have
`been made with tongueplantedfirmly in
`cheek, this year my wishes are more in
`line with what| truly hope comestrue.
`On a recent “60 Minutes,” there was a
`segment about the decrepit condition of
`our nation’s bridges and highways. This
`is a subject we haveall watched for de-
`cades and fully understand. The unfor-
`tunate issue is that Congress has been
`asleep at the switch, politically polarized
`and apparently not seeing the real prob-
`lem — nor doesit seem to understand
`
`what's neededto rectify it.
`Our bridges in the U.S. — and there
`are more than 70,000 of them, accord-
`ing to the broadcast — are in terrible
`shape. We cannot see the problems
`driving over or under these very impor-
`tant parts of our highway and rail infra-
`structure, but rust is taking over, and
`cement and asphalt are falling apart
`on nearlyall ofit. It's a wonder that we
`have not had more accidents and de-
`
`struction becauseof the neglect.
`It's up to Congress to put politics
`aside and getlegislation moving thatwill
`not only put money toward the mainte-
`nance and upgrading of our infrastruc-
`ture, but to make a systematic plan to
`begin working on the bridges, highways
`railways and airports to make them safe
`andin good working condition.
`The Highway Trust Fund has in the
`past been directed by highwaybills, usu-
`
`

`
`A Big Wish For 2015
`
`ally in the hundredsof millions of dollars,
`which established six-year working peri-
`ods. Today, we see six- or eight-month
`“band aid bills,” sometimes called “pot-
`hole bills” that hardly cover the cost of
`pothole mix and tar to cover cracks and
`holes in the roads. The most recentbill
`
`passed by Congress and approved by
`the administration in August of this year
`called for $10.8 billion in funding, good
`until May 2015 andofferinglittle or no di-
`rection. Is this the best we can do?
`
`Gas taxes to help maintain infrastruc-
`ture and highways have beenin effect
`for about 80 years. The first gasoline
`tax of one cent per gallon went into law
`June 1932. That tax has progressively
`increased over the years so thatit finally
`got to three cents per gallon in July 1956
`and four cents per gallon October 1959.
`It has bounced around since then.
`In
`
`October 1993, Congress set the tax at
`18.4 cents per gallon, the current price.
`The current tax on diesel fuel was also set
`
`at 24.4 cents per gallon at the sametime.
`Meanwhile,
`inflation has increased
`64% since 1993, which should put the
`gas tax with inflation at about 30 cents
`per gallon on a national basis. Today's
`motorists, therefore, are paying about
`half per mile what they paid in 1993.
`That's why the system is broken.
`In June 2014, a bipartisan highway
`bill amendment implementing a six-cent
`gas tax increase in 2014 with another
`changeof six cents in 2015 was debated
`by the House of Representatives. This
`amendmentcalled for indexing the gas
`tax to inflation, ensuring the fact that the
`Highway Trust Fund would be viable for
`many years, which is not the case with
`the current 21-year-old bill. The amend-
`ment died in the House before being sent
`to the Senate because of concerns over
`
`raising taxes in an election year.
`A newlonger-term highwaybill would
`create jobs, help machinery demand
`grow and make our
`roads, bridges
`
`andrails safer and moreefficient. If we
`
`spend $40 to $50billion a year for na-
`tionwide transportation maintenance,
`then we need to find ways to generate
`that revenue and manage it properly.
`Are there other or better ways this
`could be accomplished in view of the
`fact that highways are used by more and
`more people, some with electric cars
`and hybrids? Fuel efficiency is a fac-
`tor — better fuel economy means less
`gas tax revenue — andsois the politics
`that keeps throwing anti-tax arguments.
`Gasoline and diesel vehicleswill be here
`
`for a long time, and certainly even long
`after electric vehicles become a sig-
`nificant part of the motor vehicle scene,
`Reforming the gas tax and getting our
`transportation system running again will
`have a positive impact. We need effi-
`cient transportation systems as they are
`thelifeline in our national structure.
`
`| want to see funds flowing again for
`highways and new machines to do the
`work.
`It is time for a longer-term plan
`(perhaps four, five or six years in du-
`ration like previous highwaybills), and
`one that won't go bust the first year
`from lack of money.
`In two years, the
`system should be working much better
`and road and bridgework might start to
`come backto the “normal” we once had.
`
`| would be willing to bet that rough-
`ly 85% of the public is ready for such
`changes. None of us want higher gas
`prices, but with fuel prices dropping the
`way they are, there is no better time to
`move forward. People want
`improve-
`ments to our nation’s roads and bridges
`— most of us drive cars and are tired
`
`of having the tires and shocks ruined
`from bad roads. We are also tired of a
`
`rundown and agedair traffic control sys-
`tem and our metro systemsthat are an-
`tiquated. If someone has a better idea to
`fix all of this, step forward.
`Come on, Santa. All | want for Christ-
`masis a real roadbill. dp
