Integrating seaports and trade corridors

Seaport gateways and the corridors which connect them to widely dispersed hinterlands are of vital and essential importance to international trade and the world economy. Distributing goods to ultimate land destinations or bringing the goods to seaports from inland origins is organizationally complex involving multiple actors. This book furthers understanding about how this movement is organized…

Will the Northern Sea Route ever be a viable alternative?

Since the decline in sea ice north of Russia became clear in the early 1990s, ideas of using the northern route for sea transport between Europe and Asia have taken a hold of the shipping community. Large and small research projects with varying complexity and results have looked into this option. In this article, the available information is studied in detail and four scenarios for the costs a…

Determinants and Effects of Logistics Costs in Container Ports: The Transacti…

Many countries seek to become a global logistics center linking major trading ports. They are competitively constructing container ports. The aggressive competition creates overcapacity situation in the container port sector. Massive investments are required to construct container ports with terminals, docks, storage areas and hinterlands. Nevertheless, it is not easy for container ports to hav…

CONTAINER TERMINALS AND UTILISATION OF FACILITIES

The central subject of this paper is the efficiency of container terminals. Based on a database of European maritime, rail, and barge container terminals a technical efficien- cy analysis has been made. The analysis in this paper demonstrates that large differences in terminal efficiency can be found in Europe among maritime container terminals. Terminals that specialise in containers only perf…

Cities and Transport Networks in Shipping and Logistics Research

While shipping and logistics studies often describe the flows and networks on the level of firms and terminals rather than cities, urban studies pay limited attention to transport infrastructure and material flows. The renewal of network analysis based on complex systems will be discussed in this paper as a potential bridge between those two approaches. It particularly focuses on how transport …

Analyzing the economic benefit of unmanned autonomous ships: An exploratory c…

Unmanned autonomous ships are seen as a key element of a competitive and sustainable European shipping industry in future. But even if the technology to further automate ships will principally be available at some point, this does not imply that autonomous vessels are also the superior choice for the ship owner. In the end the success of autonomous vessels depends on their impact on the profita…

A stochastic frontier model of the productive efficiency of Korean container …

A central objective of port privatization and/or deregulation policies is stimulating greater efficiency by engendering a more competitive market and commercial approach to management. Korea provides a prime example of a nation that is implementing such policies. Also, its ports play a pivotal role in world shipping, particularly in the ever-burgeoning container market. The success of these pol…

The Brazilian seaport system: A post-1990 institutional and economic review

This paper addresses the remarkable institutional and economic changes in the Brazilian seaport system in the past 25 years. Port throughput has increased substantially following the growth in foreign trade and the institutional framework had remarkable changes, but it is still required to enhance private investment infrastructure by a clearer regulation and transport integration improvement. F…

An input-output-based methodology to estimate the economic role ofthe port sy…

The article illustrates the results of a research project aimed at identifying the main economic and industrial characteristics of the port system of the Friuli Venezia Giulia (FVG) Region, Italy, and the role it plays within the economy. Combining a top-down and bottom-up approach, based on interviews and detailed data at firm level, a bi-regional input-output (I-O) table is built with a speci…

Port economics

The author of this book is the Frederick W. Beazley Professor of Economics and Executive Director of the Maritime Institute at Old Dominion University, USA. He is also the Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Asian Journal of Shipping and Logistics. Recently economic mechanism of port is one of themost interesting research themes in maritime economics. According to the author’s definition, port economic…

A new governance perspective on port–hinterland relationships: the port hin…

We develop a new governance perspective on port–hinterland linkages and related port impacts. Many stakeholders in a port’s hinterland now demand tangible economic benefits from port activities, as a precondition for supporting port expansion and infrastructural investments. We use a governance lens to assess this farsighted contracting challenge. We find that most contemporary economic imp…

Risk analysis of vlcs base4d on tren of cargo growth

Ever since the 1960s, every 10 to 15 years, the size of ships has been upgraded by 1,000 TEU. This trend of upgrading has been maintained due to advances in ship manufacturer’s technologies, and in the carriers’ strategy. It is likely that this strategy will accelerate the trend for carriers to operate VLCSs far earlier than was previously expected. The main aims of using larger containersh…

Enterprise architectural framework for supply-chain integration

The concept of supply chain is about managing coordinated information and material flows, plant operations, and logistics. It provides flexibility and agility in responding to consumer demand shifts without cost overlays in resource utilization. The fundamental premise of this philosophy is; synchronization among multiple autonomous business entities represented in it. That is, improved coordin…

Proposing a common platform of shipping cost analysis of the Northern Sea Rou…

Maritime trade between East Asia and Northwest Europe using the Northern Sea Route (NSR) has been recently increasing, because ship operators may take advantage of the shorter sailing distance of NSR whose navigable season has become longer because of retreating Arctic sea ice. As Arctic sea ice continues to retreat because of global warming, the NSR is now approximately 40 per cent shorter tha…

Purpose – South Africa’s logistics cost measurement was expanded to include externality costs, and scenarios based on the key exogenous risks were developed to inform mitigation strategies. This paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – The research approach is quantitative, based on a gravityorientated freight flow model, a road transport cost model, actual tr…

Two dimensions of service: a single carrier analysis

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the cost of improving service to a motor carrier in the intermodal market. The paper further seeks to validate the existence of two dimensions of service with differing impacts on costs. The physical capacity dimension is related to the traditional view that higher quality costs more and the human performance dimension is related to the production man…
