DefinitionDefinition ofof logisticslogistics

Logistics is regional,nationalandglobal. Logistics is defined as the time-related positioning of resource. It is also described as the “five rights”. Essentially, it is the process of ensuring that goods or a service is: •In the right place •At the right time •In the right quantity •At the right quality •At the right price

Origins and definition The prevalent view is that the term logistics comes from the late 19th century: from French logistique(loger means to lodge). Others attribute a Greek origin to the word: λόγος,meaningreasonorspeech ; λογιστικός,meaningaccountantorresponsibleforcounting .

TheThe historyhistory ofof logisticslogistics Logistics’ history is as old as human civilization since it is the means for development of any kind

A simple example for us engineers would be at around 2700 B.C.: Material handling technology in pyramid construction . Blocks of stone weighing several tons were transported and assembled at the construction site. To build the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is 146 meters high and weighs 6 million tons, the Egyptians needed sophisticated material transport equipment capable of moving the massive building blocks and putting them into place. Even today, we still cannot fully explain how this level of precision was achieved using the hoisting equipment and means of transport available around 2700 B.C

Alexander the Great was considered from many scientists as the first logistician.

Timothy Van Mieghem writes in his “Logistics lessons from Alexander the Great”

•“He marched along rivers to provide easy access to sea transport which could deliver tons of supplies, compared to 200 pounds per beast” •“Alexander’ s 35.000 man army could carry no more than a 10 day supply of food when remote from sea transport” •“He timed his departure so the 30 day supply of rations, carried by sea transport, would last until 10 days after harvest at the first destination city. This provided a seamless food and water supply for his army until he conquered the next city.” •“He setup bases to provide shelter and supplies prior to army’ s arrival ”

TheThe historyhistory andand importanceimportance ofof containerscontainers inin internationalinternational tradetrade The idea of shipping products in containers is a very old one. •The ancient Greeks used sealed vases – or amphorae – to transport oil or wine . •Later cultures used large trunks to ship valuables aboard their sailing vessels. But containerisation is a modern phenomenon just over 50 years old. •McLean, boss of his own trucking business in North Carolina, was frustrated by the laborious methods of handling goods in the early part of the 20th century . On 26 April 1956 McLean’s prototype - the refitted Second World War tanker, the Ideal-X - sailed from Newark to Houston carrying 58 truck bodies with the wheels removed. •By 1957, he had already introduced the first of a series of vessels converted into specialised container ships that were able to carry boxes below decks as well as on deck. They were more efficient container carriers. Soon enough, his company was re-branded SeaLand Service , a name that summed up the ‘multi-modal’ union of overland and seaborne transportation. http://www.costamare.com ELAC / May 09 2014 By Antonis S.

25 ELAC / May 09 2014 By Antonis S. Antoniadis TransshipmentTransshipment

Transhipment is the transfer of containers from one vessel to another vessel bound for its final destination, whereas in transit. This is essentially the business PSA is in . Singapore’s strategic location in the heart of Southeast Asia and at the nexus of major shipping routes has made it an important logistic hub and conduit for world trade. Being the world’s top transhipment hub, Singapore is connected to 600 ports in 123 countries, with daily sailings to every major port of call in the world. With its unrivalled connectivity, many small feeder vessels bring containers to Singapore. At the Port of Singapore, these containers get loaded onto large vessels which will then carry the shipment to their final destination.

Singapore the No1 transshipment port in the world 26 ELAC / May 09 2014 By Antonis S. Antoniadis TransshipmentTransshipment

 Why tranship? The value of transhipment lies in that it is more cost efficient and time saving than the vessel making a single direct voyage.  If each vessel sails direct to every port, the number of journeys made will look like the above.  If the vessels tranship via Singapore, the number of journeys is significantly reduced.  About 85 per cent of the containers that arrive in Singapore are transhipped to another port of call . Shipping lines use PSA for these modes of transhipment:  Hub & Spoke (Main Line Operator to Feeder)  Cross Strings (Main Line Operator to Main Line Operator)  The concept of transhipment truly connects the world and one is able to ship a container from anywhere to everywhere in the world.

“Our deep-sea carriers are calling fewer ports, which is decreasing our total transit time ,” he explains. “With lower volumes, our deep-sea carriers had also been calling ports in North Africa . These ports were congested, which increased transit times. Now, the volumes for our North African destinations tranship to short-sea vessels at Piraeus .” This change means that although the deep-sea leg is now slightly longer, the inland leg is much shorter for Mitsubishi.

BELGRADE, 10/10/2013 (Tanjug) - The feasibility study for the Morava channel is positive, Minister of Natural Resources, Mining and Spatial Planning Milan Bacevic stated on Thursday and expressed the expectation that the government will launch the talks on the project very soon. Bacevic presented the feasibility study drawn up by the Chinese company China Gezuba Corporation which shows that the project can be realised. The Chinese partners showed keen interest in joining the project implementation, the minister said and announced that he will meet with Chinese representatives on Saturday to ITJ magazine discuss the major project. 31 Ministry of foreign affairs of republic of Serbia http://msp.gov.rs/en/ ELAC / May 09 2014 By Antonis S.

Bacevic expects the talks on the project to be launched in the government soon, and underscored that the project should be realised through concession. The Morava channel project should be implemented on the regional level and it should connect the Danube with the Aegean Sea. The project should contribute to the development of agriculture, energy and tourism, Bacevic said. He noted that several smaller projects could be realised from the major project. adding that the feasibility study for the Morava channel should be completed now and the Serbian government should grant funds for this.
