  • China's Merchant Marine
    “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. According to the Factbook, “DWT or dead weight tonnage is the total weight of cargo, plus bunkers, stores, etc., that a ship can carry when immersed to the appropriate load line.

Existing Design Trends for Tankers and Bulk Carriers - Design Changes for Improvement of the EEDI in the Future Hans Otto Holmegaard Kristensen1 and Marie Lützen2 ABSTRACT To get an idea of the reduction in propulsion power and associated emissions by varying the speed and other ship design main parameters, a generic model for parameter studies has been developed. With only a few input parameters of which the maximum deadweight capacity is the primary one, a proposal for the main dimensions and the necessary installed power is calculated by the model.

  • Oshima Shipbuilding Company
    CENTER ON JAPANESE ECONOMY AND BUSINESS Occasional Paper Series January 2015, No. 69 Oshima Shipbuilding Company Hugh Patrick This paper is available online at www.gsb.columbia.edu/cjeb/research COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK January 7, 2015 Oshima Shipbuilding Company Hugh Patrick Center on Japanese Economy and Business Columbia Business School Abstract Oshima Shipbuilding is one of many mid‐size Japanese companies that are major global players in niche markets. This essay tells the Oshima story in the context of the global shipbuilding industry’s cycles, changing competitors, and evolving technologies. The industry is subject to wide, rapid swings in demand and pricing, primarily for exogenous reasons. Oshima, a builder of mid‐size bulk carriers, has survived, and even prospered, through productivity growth, technological innovation, and earning a reputation for quality. Oshima Shipbuilding Company Hugh Patrick Many mid‐size Japanese companies are major global players in niche markets. This essay is about one such firm. It is a company whose plans have routinely been overwhelmed by events, at times tossing it about like a ship in a major storm. Yet it has not just survived, it has come to prosper – though always precariously in an industry as turbulent as the seas its products sail. The Oshima Shipbuilding Company, Ltd, describes itself as “a small‐scale but world‐class shipbuilder.” It builds bulk carriers, which are ships that carry loose, usually homogeneous cargo that is often loaded with the help of gravity. There are many types, some highly specialized, transporting coal, ore, grain, caustic soda, and the like, as well as rolls of paper and steel pipes.
