  • Ocean Shipping Cartels: a Survey Abstract 1 Introduction Liner
    Review of Network Economics Vol.3, Issue 2 – June 2004 Ocean Shipping Cartels: A Survey WILLIAM SJOSTROM* Centre for Policy Studies, National University of Ireland, Cork Abstract Liner shipping has been characterized by collusive agreements, called shipping conferences, since its founding in the mid-nineteenth century. This article surveys the competing models of shipping conferences, including monopolizing cartels and destructive competition models, and reviews a variety of their practices to see how much light they can shed on the profitability and efficiency of conferences. 1 Introduction Liner shipping is the business of offering common carrier ocean shipping services in international trade. Since it became an important industry in the 1870s, it has been characterized by various agreements between firms. Historically, since the formation in 1875 of the Calcutta Conference, the primary form of agreement in liner shipping has been the conference system. Variously called liner conferences, shipping conferences, and ocean shipping conferences, they are formal agreements between liner shipping lines on a route, always setting (possibly discriminatory) prices, and sometimes pooling profits or revenues, managing capacity, allocating routes, and offering loyalty discounts. Conferences agreements have been quite successful and in many cases have lasted for years. There were over 150 conferences operating in the world as of 2001(OECD, 2002, p.19). In the last ten to twenty years, conferences have begun to be supplanted by alliances, which are less complete (they do not, for example, set prices) but encompass more broadly defined trade routes. Section 1 of this survey will review the liner industry (1.1), the conference system (1.2), and the historical origins of the conference system (1.3).

  • The Economic and Environmental Benefits of Container Shipping in the Northern Sea Route
    Erasmus University Rotterdam MSc in Maritime Economics and Logistics 2019/2020 The Economic and Environmental Benefits of Container Shipping in the Northern Sea route by Prithvin Leonard Copyright © Prithvin Leonard Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Professor. Ted Welten for lending his expertise and valuable time. I also wish to thank Mr. Kushal Bagi for his valuable inputs in this thesis. I would also like to thank the MEL office team for their valuable assistance through my time at MEL. Special thanks to Mr. Shanmugabharath Palanivelu, for his constant support, motivation and help throughout my MEL journey. My good friends Mario Buonocore, Elisabeth Mathisen, Billy Peach, Daniel Prince, Madalin Pasnicu and Grace Raggi, were great sources of motivation and support. Most importantly, I thank my parents Mr. Leonard and Mrs. Kavitha for their constant love and support. Last but not least, my thanks to my Grandfather Mr. J Chellappa. i Abstract This paper set out to answer the research question of whether the Northern Sea Route (NSR) will be competitive with the Royal Road (Suez Canal Route) for container lines. The research question was formed as: What are the economic and environmental benefits for container shipping in the Northern Sea Route and when will these benefits be maximized? This was devised with the aim of measuring the costs and the CO2 emissions of comparable lines for the NSR and Royal Road. These metrics were important because the liner industry has been focusing on reducing costs and the shipping industry is tasked with reducing CO2 emissions by 2050.

  • Port and Dock Operations
    Property Risk Consulting Guidelines PRC.17.24 A Publication of AXA XL Risk Consulting PORT AND DOCK OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION Unless a country is land locked, a large percentage of its international trade will typically be via its ports. With the increase in international commerce and trade, ports have more so become crucial logistics centers. Processes to handle freight and cargo have had to be rationalized and handled as an industrial process using the most advanced concepts in logistics and technology. Recent trends in port and dock facilities include advancement of information technology such as EDI and e-commerce, which are accelerating the integration of transport systems. Ports are also having to accommodate larger ships by deepening and widening channels and constructing new berthing facilities with sufficient water depth and length. In general the port authorities own most of port assets such as breakwater, access channel and land. A large proportion of cargo handling equipment at container and break-bulk terminals is however owned by private companies. In assessing property risk at a port it is importance to know the customer’s business purpose and to identify ownership of property and the customer’s liability toward it. The majority of port authorities are fully responsible for navigational aids, harbor master services, dredging, and port information. Other public and private bodies provide services such as pilotage, stevedoring, towage, ship agents, land transport and other shipping services. Property at a port is not limited to buildings and their contents, but includes mobile equipment such as the quayside or dockside cranes, rubber tire or rail mounted gantry cranes, staddle carriers, forklifts etc.

They are, however, products of great changes in maritime technology which have taken place during the past 20 years. This has been a period which has seen the development of containerships, roll-on roll-off ferries (ro-ros), giant gas carriers and tankers, together with a whole range of strange craft designed for the new offshore industries. This book looks at the technology behind these ships. It also examines the developments that have taken place in naval vessels, which have been dominated by advances in weapons systems and the evolution of today's huge, silent submarines.

  • Cargo Preferences for U.S.-Flag Shipping
    Cargo Preferences for U.S.-Flag Shipping John Frittelli Specialist in Transportation Policy October 29, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44254 Cargo Preferences for U.S.-Flag Shipping Summary Long-standing U.S. policy has treated the U.S.-flag international fleet as a naval auxiliary to be available in times of war or national emergency. When the United States is involved in an extended military conflict overseas, 90% or more of military cargoes are typically carried by ship. To support the U.S. merchant marine, Congress has required that “government-impelled” cargo sent overseas be carried on U.S.-flag ships. Government-impelled cargo (a.k.a. “preference cargo”) is government-owned cargo, such as military supplies and food aid, and any cargo that is somehow financed by the federal government, such as by the Export-Import Bank. While export shipments account for the vast bulk of government-impelled cargo, in 2008 Congress extended the law to require that state and local governments and private entities importing goods with federal financial assistance ship at least 50% of such cargo in U.S.-flag vessels. Regulations to implement that requirement have not been issued. Historically, cargo preference law has been used to assure that a large proportion of government- impelled cargoes is shipped in privately owned U.S.-flag ships rather than in government-owned vessels such as those now controlled by the Military Sealift Command (MSC). Military cargo then, and more so now, accounts for the overwhelming bulk of preference cargoes. Since 1954, an agreement between U.S.
