Maritime Safety Culture in Europe

Therefore, it was time for the European Union to act and to develop a new concept of safety culture. A parallel can be drawn between the attitude of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) and the attitude of the European Union. The IMO is well known for promoting and improving safety and also in being reactive to maritime disasters. Now we discover a new philosophy of “anticipating a…

Green Maritime Logistics and Sustainability

The environmental consequences of international trade and transport have gained importance as a result of the current climate debate. Products are increasingly being produced in one part of the world, transported to another country and then redistributed to their final country of consumption. Since more than 80% of world trade tonnage measured in metric tons is carried by seagoing vessels, mar…

Review Of Maritime Transport 2014

Global economic growth faltered in 2013 as economic activity in developing regions suffered setbacks and as the situation in the advanced economies improved only slightly.  Prospects for the world economy, trade and shipping seem to be improving although a number of risks mostly on the downside remain.

Regional integration and maritime connectivity across the Maghreb seaport system

Models and empirical studies of port system evolution dominantly focus on land-based dynamics. Hence, it is traditionally recognized that such dynamics condition the evolution of ports and their relations as well as wider regional integration processes. The Maghreb region (Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia), which is currently responsible for no less than one-third of all African port throughputs, …

Ecological modernization (EM) is often presented as a suitable way to make societies, and the key industries on which they are dependent, environmentally and economically sustainable. This article focuses on the underlying factors that contribute to EM in the shipping industry. The theoretical perspective used stems from critical EM and corporate social responsibility research. The analysis a…

Container shipping on the Northern Sea Route

Since the beginning of the 20th century, the principal commercial maritime routes have changed very little. With global warming, the Northern Sea Route (NSR) has opened up as a possible avenue of trade in containerized products between Asia and Europe. This paper verifies the technical and economic feasibility of regular container transport along the NSR. By adopting a model schedule between Sh…

Different port operating policies have the potential to reduce emissions from shipping; however, their efficacy varies for different ports. This article extends existing literature to present a consistent and transferable methodology that examines emissions reduction port policies based on ship-call data. Carbon dioxide (CO2); sulphur dioxide (SO2); nitrogen oxides (NOx); and black carbon (BC) …

Policies for sustainable development of transport rely on three pillars: striving for stable social and economic growth, while reducing the pollution and protecting the natural resources. Seaports play a significant role in economic growth of port cities. In each such a city the port generates even several thousand jobs directly connected with the port operation. Unfortunately, the port activit…

The feeder network design problem: application to container services in the b…

Global containership liners design their transportation service as hub- and spoke networks to improve the access to local transportation markets and to reduce operational costs by using short-sea connections for low-volume transportation lanes. These connections from the hub ports to the regional ports constitute the feeder network that is serviced by small- or medium-sized feeder containership…

Port efficiency, maritime transport costs, and bilateral trade

Recent literature has emphasized the importance of transport costs and infrastructure in explaining trade, access to markets, and increases in per capita income. For most Latin American countries, transport costs are a greater barrier to U.S. markets than import tariffs. We investigate the determinants of shipping costs to the United States with a large database of more than 300,000 observation…

Maritime policy in the North Sea region : application of the cluster approach

The aim of maritime policy is to achieve continued trade development and hence economic growth while ensuring seas and coastal areas are adequately protected. Historically, many policy decisions, not least with regard to maritime transport, were arrived at from a top-down approach. However, there are criticisms of the top-down policy-making process. This article presents a new bottom-up policy …

Due to a long-lasting increase in global trade, only interrupted by the late-2000s economic crisis, container traffic has grown dramatically. As a result, new terminals have opened and existing terminals face much higher container handling than before. In order to meet these challenges, one of the biggest container terminals in Turkey has begun to reconsider its terminal operations and to achie…
