    “China’s Merchant Marine” A paper for the China as “Maritime Power” Conference July 28-29, 2015 CNA Conference Facility Arlington, Virginia by Dennis J. Blasko1 Introductory Note: The Central Intelligence Agency’s World Factbook defines “merchant marine” as “all ships engaged in the carriage of goods; or all commercial vessels (as opposed to all nonmilitary ships), which excludes tugs, fishing vessels, offshore oil rigs, etc.”2 At the end of 2014, the world’s merchant ship fleet consisted of over 89,000 ships.3 According to the BBC: Under international law, every merchant ship must be registered with a country, known as its flag state. That country has jurisdiction over the vessel and is responsible for inspecting that it is safe to sail and to check on the crew’s working conditions. Open registries, sometimes referred to pejoratively as flags of convenience, have been contentious from the start.4 1 Dennis J. Blasko, Lieutenant Colonel, U.S. Army (Retired), a Senior Research Fellow with CNA’s China Studies division, is a former U.S. army attaché to Beijing and Hong Kong and author of The Chinese Army Today (Routledge, 2006).The author wishes to express his sincere thanks and appreciation to Rear Admiral Michael McDevitt, U.S. Navy (Ret), for his guidance and patience in the preparation and presentation of this paper. 2 Central Intelligence Agency, “Country Comparison: Merchant Marine,” The World Factbook, https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2108.html.

Eng. Or. Document complet disponible sur OLIS dans son format d’origine Complete document available on OLIS in its original format 1 Summary This report focuses on regulations governing international liner and bulk shipping. Both modes are closely linked to international trade, deriving from it their growth. Also, as a service industry to trade international shipping, which is by far the main mode of international transport of goods, has facilitated international trade and has contributed to its expansion. Total seaborne trade volume was estimated by UNCTAD to have reached 5330 million metric tons in 2000. The report discusses the web of regulatory measures that surround these two segments of the shipping industry, and which have a considerable impact on its performance. As well as reviewing administrative regulations to judge whether they meet their intended objectives efficiently and effectively, the report examines all those aspects of economic regulations that restrict entry, exit, pricing and normal commercial practices, including different forms of business organisation. However, those regulatory elements that cover competition policy as applied to liner shipping will be dealt with in a separate study to be undertaken by the OECD Secretariat Many measures that apply to maritime transport services are not part of a regulatory framework but constitute commercial practices of market operators.

  • Logistics in Focus: U.S. Waterways by Max Schlubach
    Logistics in Focus: U.S. Waterways By Max Schlubach For more than 200 years, tugboats, towboats and barges have plied the United States’ vast inland river system, its Great Lakes and its three coasts. This distinctly American industry has built the coast of the Great Lakes into a global manufacturing center, enabled the U.S. to become the world’s largest wheat exporter and, today, provides the flexibility needed to become a major oil producer. Yet despite the critical role that it plays in the U.S. economy, the inland and coastal maritime industry is little known outside of the transportation sector. 14 Brown Brothers Harriman | COMMODITY MARKETS UPDATE The tugboat, towboat and barge industry is the largest segment Jones Act Vessel Type of the U.S. merchant maritime fleet and includes 5,476 tugboats Ferries Tankers and towboats and 23,000 barges that operate along the Atlantic, 591 61 0.7% Pacific and Gulf Coasts, the Great Lakes and the inland river sys- 6.5% tem.

  • Environmentally-Friendly Dredging in the Bisan-Seto Shipping Route
    Environmentally-friendly dredging in the Bisan-Seto Shipping Route Seiki Takano1, Kazuhiro Someya2, Ｈidetoshi Nishina3, Ryoichi Takao⁴ , Shinji Yamamoto⁵ , Yuji Inoue⁶ Abstract:Japan’s Bisan-Seto Shipping Route serves as both a key a route for domestic shipping between Osaka and Kyushu and as an international sea trade route. Between fiscal year 1963 and 1972, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport implemented a government-controlled program to improve this sea route. Approximately 38.4 million cubic meters of solids, including bedrock, were dredged to increase the depth of the northern shipping route to –19 ｍ, the southern and connecting shipping route to –13 m, and the Mizushima Shipping Route to –17 m. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transtport performed every few years this dredging in response to the complex surrounding geography and tidal characteristics of the shipping route, which cause sediment build-up and reduce the functionality of the shipping route. The dredging involves barge-loading pump dredgers, with the dredged material loaded onto barges for transportation to disposal areas. This work lead to the overflow of turbid water from hopper of barges into surrounding sea areas, causing marine turbidity. The most recent Bisan-Seto Shipping Route dredging program was carried out over a five-year period, from fiscal year 2001 through 2005. The program incorporated studies on environmentally-friendly dredging methods that do not generate turbidity, leading to the selection of a method that recirculates overflow water from the barge to the dredger suction inlet, and realized an approach to prevent the generation of turbidity without reducing dredging efficiency.

  • U.S. Coast Guard Historian's Office
    U.S. Coast Guard Historian’s Office Preserving Our History For Future Generations ICEBREAKERS AND THE U.S. COAST GUARD by Donald L. Canney Among the many missions of the U.S. Coast Guard, icebreaking is generally viewed as a rather narrow specialty, associated most often in the public mind with expeditions into the vast Polar unknowns. However, a study into the service's history of ice operations reveals a broad spectrum of tasks - ranging from the support of pure science to the eminently practical job of life saving on frozen waters. Furthermore, the nature of each of these functions is such that none can be considered "optional": all are vital - whether it be in the arena of national defense, maritime safety, international trade, or the global economy. The origin of icebreaking in the United States came in the 1830s, with the advent of steam propulsion. It was found that side-wheel steamers with reinforced bows were an excellent means of dealing with harbor ice, a problem common to East Coast ports as far south as the Chesapeake Bay. These seasonal tasks were common, but were strictly local efforts with no need to involve the Coast Guard (then called the Revenue Marine or Revenue Cutter Service). The service's first serious encounter with operations in ice came after the purchase of Alaska in 1867. The Revenue Cutter Lincoln became the first of many cutters to operate in Alaskan waters. Though the vessel was a conventional wooden steamer, she made three cruises in Alaskan waters before 1870. Since that time the Bering Sea patrol and other official - and unofficial - tasks made the Revenue Service a significant part of the development of that territory and state.

  • Comparing Structural Casualties of the Ro-Ro Vessel Using Straight and Oblique Collision Incidents on the Car Deck
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Comparing Structural Casualties of the Ro-Ro Vessel Using Straight and Oblique Collision Incidents on the Car Deck Aditya Rio Prabowo 1,* , Dong Myung Bae 2 and Jung Min Sohn 2,* 1 Department of Mechanical Engineering, Universitas Sebelas Maret, Surakarta 57126, Central Java, Indonesia 2 Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Systems Engineering, Pukyong National University, Busan 48513, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (A.R.P.); [email protected] (J.M.S.) Received: 24 April 2019; Accepted: 6 June 2019; Published: 11 June 2019 Abstract: Roll on-roll off (Ro-Ro) ship is the preferable vessel for public transportation and also as a medium to distribute several commodities. Its operations are a straightforward process but traffic management is quite delicate, especially for cross-route. Moreover, maritime incidents sometimes occur, causing significant casualties and in the case of the Ro-Ro, collision with other ship is a possible threat with the ability to trigger immense damages. This research, therefore, was conducted to assess the structural casualties of a Ro-Ro vessel under collision. This was modelled with respect to a ship involved in a certain incident in Indonesia in the latest decade, and the designed collision problems were calculated using the finite element approach. The collision angle was selected as the main input parameter with the straight collision of angle 90◦ and oblique collision with different angles applied to the scenario. The results found the collision energy due to structural destruction to have distinct pattern and peak value under oblique cases with lower values observed for straight collision for all scenarios.
