The cargo consisted of a ‘1500tn press machine’ (a total of 619,000kgs / 1,475cbm) shipped from Jakarta in Indonesia to Karachi in Pakistan with individual pieces weighing up to 80,000kgs. The cargo was booked on a 10K general cargo vessel, M.V. Hosei 28, which is fitted with 2 x 30tn SWL cranes (60tns combined). Managing Director at Noble, Capt. Mohammad Inam explains: “The real challenge was discharging the 80,000kg packages at Karachi port where the availability of heavy shore cranes is scarce. Unfortunately, the port’s only floating crane, ‘Hathi’ (100tn SWL), was declared ‘out of order’ at the time of booking and there was no notice of when it would be ready to use again. This was a big shock to the owners, operators and charters but realising the situation, we made extraordinary efforts and managed to get the crane repaired in less than 18 hours. Eventually, the vessel had to wait for the light of the next day to discharge the heavy packages and so the total time lost only amounted to about 6 hours. The heavy packages were finally discharged across the ship directly onto the trailers for further road transportation to the site nearly 1,500km from Karachi. The entire discharging operation, under the supervision of our Port Captain, was accomplished in a safe and smooth manner.” HACPL Manager, Mr. Waseem commented: “Many thanks to Noble Shipping Services for all the support and services they have provided. We have received our press machine at our premises safely and in sound condition.” A great example of the excellent services provided by Noble Shipping Services in Pakistan.

  • A Solution of Traffic Congestion for Ko Chang Piers Through Applying Access Fee
    Article A Solution of Traffic Congestion for Ko Chang Piers through Applying Access Fee Yanisa Techaphoositthiponga and Siradol Siridharab,* The Cluster of Logistics and Rail Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Mahidol University, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand E-mail: [email protected], b,*[email protected] (Corresponding author) Abstract. Ko Chang, one of the main island attractions of Thailand, is suffering from congestion at its ferry piers due to the great flocks of tourists. Due to the low vehicle- carrying capacity of the ferry, the bottlenecks are observed especially over long weekends. Over volume of private cars that are cause of negative impact to tourist destination is overtourism phenomenon. The problem could be alleviated if the tourists could be encouraged to park their cars at the main land piers and walk on to the ferry. This study aims to find out the Thai tourist mode choice preference and develops a binary logit model with its objective to alleviate the congestion via the demand management strategies. The results show that the monetary cost and wait time in the queue are the primary and secondary factors affecting the tourist’s decision. It is also shown that almost half of the tourists would leave their cars on the mainland if 500-baht charge is applied with the 3 hour wait. Keywords: Mode choice model, binary logit model, park-and-ride, public transport, logistics tourism, overtourism.
