  • Revisiting Port Capacity: a Practical Method for Investment and Policy Decisions
    Revisiting Port Capacity: A practical method for Investment and Policy decisions Ioannis N. Lagoudis Head of R&D, XRTC Ltd, Business Consultants 95 Akti Miaouli Str., 18538, Piraeus, Greece & Adjunct Faculty, University of the Aegean – Department of Shipping trade and Transport 2A Korai Str., 82100, Chios, Greece and James B. Rice, Jr. Deputy Director, MIT – Center for Transportation and Logistics 1 Amherst Street, Second Floor,Cambridge, MA 02142 Abstract The paper revisits port capacity providing a more holistic approach via including immediate port connections from the seaside and the hinterland. The methodology provided adopts a systemic approach encapsulating the different port terminals along with the seaside and hinterland connections providing a holistic estimation of port capacity. Capacity is defined with the use of two dimensions; static and dynamic. Static capacity relates to land availability or in other words the available space for use. Dynamic capacity is determined by the available technology of equipment in combination to the skill of available labor. With the presentation of a case study from a container terminal the practical use of this methodology is illustrated. Based on the data provided by the terminal operator the results showed that there is still available space to be utilised at a static level and also room more improvement at a dynamic level. The benefits stemming from the above methodology are multidimensional with the key ones being the flexible framework adjusted to the needs of each port system for measuring capacity, the productivity estimation of the different business processes involved in the movement of goods and people and the evaluation of the financial performance of the different business units and the port as a whole.

Container ships have been plying the seas for a few decades and we are now seeing large container ships, capable of carrying 8,000 – 10,000 containers, with tiers of up to 8 high. Although this represents a tremendous economy of scale in the transporting of containers, we have seen a number of highly publicized incidents, involving the loss of large numbers of containers of containers overboard, during ocean transit. These incidents have resulted in additional damage to hundreds of other containers aboard the ship, as well as endangering the safety of the ship itself. Further, partially submerged containers pose a hazard to navigation to other vessels, particularly fishing vessels and small craft, as well as a potential environmental hazard. The first generation of container ships provided for carriage of containers on deck in tiers of only two high. The next generation allowed for carriage of containers on deck up to four tiers high.

  • Containerization in Transporting Agricultural P Erishahles JOHN E
    Containerization in Transporting Agricultural P erishahles JOHN E. CLAYTON Chief, Transportation Research Branch, Transportation and Facilities Research Division, U.S. Department of Agriculture • CONTAINERlZATION seems to have geuera led r e11ewed inter e::> t, enthusiasm and activity in freight transport. Its use may be extended to all modes of transport, with the addition of many new products; and it may become worldwide. Nearly every issue of the transport press reports expansion of containerization by one firm or another, to products and regions it has not reached before. Rail transport firms are buying more van containers and piggyback trailers. Ocean carriers are planning to buy container ships or convert regular cargo ships for containerized transport to overseas points. Firms already engaged in ocean container service are planning to extend it to other parts of the world. This increased interest, enthusiasm and activity applies to con­ tainerized movement of both perishable and nonperishable products. What causes the increased.interest-and investment-in the piggyback-containerization technique? The answer is efficiency-a better transport job- in terms of lower cost, less product losses, and more rapid movement. Cost can be reduced because contain­ erization serves as an effective means of integrating the services of different transport modes and uses more fully the inherent advantages of each mode. Containerization reduces the number of handlings of individual packages which results in less loss and pilferage. It also permits quicker transfer of cargo from one transport mode to another, thus r educing transit time and increasing utilization of transport investment. It has been estimated, for example, that container ships spend only one-fifth as much time in port loading and unloading cargo as do conventional ships.

  • The Containerization of Commodities: Integrating Inland Ports with Gateways and Corridors in Western Canada
    The Containerization of Commodities: Integrating Inland Ports with Gateways and Corridors in Western Canada Jean-Paul Rodrigue, PhD Van Horne Researcher in Transportation and Logistics Professor, Hofstra University April 2012 2 Executive Summary This report provides an analysis of the major trends in the containerization of commodities and looks at its commercial potential and operational hurdles. The setting of inland ports in Western Canada is seen as a strategy to help reconcile import (retail dominated) and export (commodities dominated) logistics. The containerization of commodities involves the development and expansion of a niche market that can fluctuate according to the price of the respective commodities, the nature and extent of the demand and container shipping rates. All of these are commodity specific and will convey new opportunities for commodity exporters and buyers alike. The last decade have been prone to the containerization of commodities as container shipping rates remained relatively constant while the price of most commodity groups doubled or tripled. Containerization enables a better level of inventory management of commodities. Yet, the availability of containers is a recurring challenge since maritime shipping companies, as dominant managers of containerized assets, will allocate them where there are commercial opportunities to recoup the costs of having these containers circulating outside their shipping and port networks. A growing level of intermodal integration is being observed in Western Canada, which reflects a trend observed across North America and elsewhere around the world. Inland ports are likely to be the missing multiplying effect that would encourage maritime shipping companies to have a larger number of containerized assets moving inland.

  • Trends in the Development of European Inland Freight Transport
    Scientific Journals Zeszyty Naukowe Maritime University of Szczecin Akademia Morska w Szczecinie 2014, 37(109) pp. 66–71 2014, 37(109) s. 66–71 ISSN 1733-8670 Trends in the development of European inland freight transport Andrzej Montwiłł Maritime University of Szczecin 70-500 Szczecin, ul. Wały Chrobrego 1–2, e-mail: [email protected] Key words: transport, inland shipping, barge, inland infrastructures, multimodal, cargo, containerization Abstract The article presents a selection of topics concerning inland freight transport. It is part of the European transport system that holds different places in the transport system of every country. At the same time it is an element of their water management system. Therefore, the development of inland shipping is influenced by two key factors. The first one is the adjusted natural water system, which as a linear system, enables freight transport. The second factor is water management policy, which takes into account inland shipping in the wa- ter resources management. In many European countries, especially in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Rumania, barge freight transport is a part of these two systems. Inland shipping in the European overland transport engages in approximately 6.5% of the transport activity by carrying dry, liquid, general and con- tainerized bulk cargo. It is of significant importance to the international cargo transport in many European countries – adjusting techniques and organization of transport to constantly changing requirements of the shippers, which results from the shift in the industry structure in Europe. It is no longer associated with transport of coal and iron are only, although they still make the primary freight in inland shipping.
