A sovereign shipping capability
built for Australian trade

IPG Shipping Services (IPGS) is the commercial keystone of Australia's most ambitious freight and logistics program — an Australian-controlled platform delivering container, breakbulk, and bulk shipping services across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia.

For too long, Australian exporters have depended on foreign-controlled carriers and congested southern ports. IPGS changes that — bringing sovereign capability, direct regional access, and integrated inland connections to the market, starting now.

01

Container Shipping

Scheduled liner services connecting Australian ports directly to Southeast Asia, expanding with demand.

02

Breakbulk & Project Cargo

Purpose-built multipurpose vessel capability for steel, cement, timber, and oversized cargo across the Tasman.

03

Integrated Inland Logistics

Rail-first connections to inland port precincts — the commercial trigger for a $20 billion infrastructure ecosystem.

Three phases of expanding reach

IPGS is launching now — not as a concept, but as an operating business with contracted cargo, a deployed vessel, and a clear pathway to scale.

Phase 1
Liner Shipping Expansion
Australia–
Southeast Asia
Newcastle· Gladstone· Darwin· Indonesia· Port Klang

Following successful MVP execution, IPGS transitions to scheduled container liner services on a direct Australia–Indonesia route — the only direct bilateral connection of its kind. Three to five geared 2,500 TEU vessels will provide frequency and reliability for exporters and importers across the Northern Territory, Queensland, and New South Wales.

  • 2,500 TEU geared container vessels
  • Direct Australia–Indonesia service, both directions
  • Transhipment to ISC, Bay of Bengal, Middle East
  • Gateway for NT natural resources and agri-products
Horizon
Network Maturity
Gladstone as a
Regional Hub
Gladstone Hub· Pan-Asian Network

As IPGS scales, it evolves into the anchor shipping activation of a hub-and-spoke network — where deep-sea vessels call centrally at Gladstone and smaller feeder services distribute containers across east coast and regional ports. This mirrors global best practice and transforms Australia's trade architecture.

  • 2.0–2.2 million TEU capacity by 2040
  • Fully integrated with inland rail at Calliope Station
  • Cold-chain, agri, and manufacturing cargo streams
  • Part of a $20 billion coordinated infrastructure system
