  • A Literature Review, Container Shipping Supply Chain: Planning Problems and Research Opportunities
    logistics Review A Literature Review, Container Shipping Supply Chain: Planning Problems and Research Opportunities Dongping Song School of Management, University of Liverpool, Chatham Street, Liverpool L69 7ZH, UK; [email protected] Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the container shipping supply chain (CSSC) by taking a logistics perspective, covering all major value-adding segments in CSSC including freight logistics, container logistics, vessel logistics, port/terminal logistics, and inland transport logistics. The main planning problems and research opportunities in each logistics segment are reviewed and discussed to promote further research. Moreover, the two most important challenges in CSSC, digitalization and decarbonization, are explained and discussed in detail. We raise awareness of the extreme fragmentation of CSSC that causes inefficient operations. A pathway to digitalize container shipping is proposed that requires the applications of digital technologies in various business processes across five logistics segments, and change in behaviors and relationships of stakeholders in the supply chain. We recognize that shipping decarbonization is likely to take diverse pathways with different fuel/energy systems for ships and ports. This gives rise to more research and application opportunities in the highly uncertain and complex CSSC environment. Citation: Song, D.

The Forum discusses trends and developments in key dry and wet commodities mar- kets and how these impact shipping. It combines the view point on one hand of commodity producers, traders, end users and major charterers and on the other hand of vessel owners and operators, attracting major industry participants. The Forum also discusses the interaction between physical and derivatives markets, including commodity derivatives, dry bulk and tanker FFAs, and issues related to the use of derivatives for trading and risk management. Dodd Frank has created far reaching changes in the derivatives industry and we devote part of the conference to examine the updates and changes, what they mean for the industry and how it can cope with them. At the same time, against the backdrop of eco- nomic uncertainty around the globe, there are significant changes and new trends in the commodity, energy and freight markets. Our Forum remains the only one that focuses on Commodity, Energy and Shipping, linking physical markets, business trends and derivatives to provide an invaluable source of information to investors.

  • Forum Journal
    Page 1 Page 2 We proudly welcome you to the “9th Annual Operational Excellence in Shipping Forum – Best Industry Practices – A Competitive Advantage” in Athens, Greece, a major international hub for the global maritime industry. The shipping industry has been in a state of significant change, especially as IMO 2020 approaches. So, this year’s forum addresses the topic of “The Industry at Crossroads - Options, Strategies & Risks Moving Ahead”. We focus on three main topics, all of which are game changers for the industry. The first one is the transformational impact of Technology and Digitalization. The second relates to the developments in fleet management. Additionally, we take special pride presenting a Global Road Map on Port State Controls, a topic of increasing importance on the backdrop of the new environmental regulations. And the third one, to which we devote the biggest part of the Forum refers to the upcoming Environmental Regulations and how these can and will impact the shipping industry from operational, investment and risk/financial viewpoints. Furthermore, the Forum aims to showcase that the consistent application of Best Industry Practices can generate tangible practical benefits that can translate into competitive advantages. The Forum brings together leading shipping companies, major charterers, financiers, insurers, classification societies, and other leading industry participants. It provides an interactive platform on the topic of Best Practices linking industry, government and non-governmental organizations, industry associations, the financial and investment community, and the public at large. We are privileged to present “Capital Link’s 2019 Maritime CSR Leadership Award” to Mr. Anastassios Papagiannopoulos CEO, Common Progress Co, President – BIMCO 2017 – 2019 for his commitment and hard work promoting Best Industry Practices during his long and distinguished career.

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, kannattaisiko yrityksen ottaa käyttöönsä Inttra-portaali vientitoimintaa harjoittaessaan. Aihetta lähestyttiin seuraavilla tutkimuskysymyksillä: Mikä on Inttra-portaali ja mitä sen käyttöönotto mahdollisesti vaatii? Millä tavoin ohjelma voisi hyödyttää Norilsk Nickel Harjavalta Oy:tä? Mitkä varustamot käyttävät Inttra- portaalia toiminnassaan? Mitä mieltä Inttra-portaalin jo käyttöönsä ottaneet yritykset ovat ohjelmasta? Onko olemassa muita vastaavien palveluiden tarjoajia? Työn teoreettisessa osiossa käsiteltiin Inttra-portaalia, muita internetissä toimivia vientiportaaleja, huolitsijoiden roolia merikuljetuksissa, sekä vientidokumentaatiota. Työn empiirisessä osuudessa taas haastateltiin Inttra-portaalin käyttöönottoa harkinnutta kansainvälistä kauppaa harjoittavaa yritystä, sekä kahta huolitsijaa.
