Download or read book Global Liner Shipping written by Lars Jensen and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the lifeblood of global economic vitality, global liner shipping contributes significantly to international stability and security. Additionally, as a major global enterprise in its own right, the international shipping industry is a major employer and contributes hundreds of billions of dollars to the global economy annually, thereby increasing gross domestic product in countries throughout the world. Liner vessels carry about 60 percent of the goods by value moved internationally by sea each year. Global Liner Shipping fills a gap in the market for a comprehensive book covering all aspects of liner trade. The industry is going through a period of change, so logistics managers and students need to understand how to deal with the current disruptions. In this groundbreaking book, Lars Jensen covers topics such as network development, supply and demand analysis, collaboration, liner profit and loss, e-commerce, risk management and process management. Each chapter ends with a real-life case study and open ended questions. Online supporting resources include templates, sample business plans and PowerPoints.

Book Synopsis Liner Shipping Economics by : Jan Jansson
Download or read book Liner Shipping Economics written by Jan Jansson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of international liner shipping needs little emphasizing. A large majority of international trade moves by sea, and the liner shipping share in total freight revenue exceeds one-half. Notwithstanding, people in general know surprisingly little about the basic facts of the liner shipping industry, and, in particular, about the economics ofliner shipping. Perhaps because it is an international industry, where shipping lines flying many different flags participate, it has tended to fall in between national accounts of domestic industries. Even transport economists have, generally speaking, treated liner shipping rather 'stepmotherly'; besides the work of Bennathan and Walters (1969), a relatively small group of specialized maritime economists, including A. Stromme-Svendsen, T. Thorburn, S. Sturmey, R. Goss, and B. M. Deakin, have in the post-war period made important contributions to the subject, but so far no coherent and reasonably comprehensive treatise of liner shipping economics has appeared. The first purpose of the present volume is therefore obvious: to provide just that. The book is divided in three parts: Part I The liner shipping industry; Part II Liner service optimization; Part III Economic evaluation of the conference system. Needless to say, all three parts concur to fulfill the first purpose of providing a complete book of liner shipping economics. In Part II a more or less separate, second, purpose has been to develop analytical tools for liner service optimization. Thereby we use different approaches.
Book Synopsis Looking Beyond Ship Size by : Christoph Karl Gustav Schaar
Download or read book Looking Beyond Ship Size written by Christoph Karl Gustav Schaar and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The liner shipping industry has seen many changes in the past decade. Economic and environmental factors have contributed to the construction and deployment of everlarger ships. As a result, overcapacities have developed on the primary trade routes, which forced shipping operators to redeploy previously used ships on secondary trade routes. This redeployment is defined as cascading and affects all stakeholders in the liner shipping industry. This thesis aims to examine these cascading effects on services that connected the West Coast of South America with the Far East and Europe in the past decade. Hence, a particular focus was placed on services that call either at the Peruvian ports of Callao or Paita. Currently, available literature examines cascading effects with respect to ship sizes. However, this thesis argues that more dimensions should be explored. For the empirical analysis, historical scheduled transit data was collected. Furthermore, global trade routes were identified and classified based on their monthly trade volume. To identify possible dimensions of cascading, a ship-specific database was created. The results determine an increase in all ship-specific physical dimensions and improved connectivity to Asia, while the connectivity to Europe decreased. Additionally, more ships with environmental equipment, such as Scrubber instalments, cascaded to the analysed services in the past decade. The findings are used to suggest managerial implications for ports and shippers. Moreover, the limitations of this thesis are stated, as well as implications for future research.

Book Synopsis Shipping and Globalization in the Post-War Era by : Niels P. Petersson
Download or read book Shipping and Globalization in the Post-War Era written by Niels P. Petersson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book belongs to the Maritime Business and Economic History strand of the Palgrave Studies in Maritime Economics book series. This volume highlights the contribution of the shipping industry to the transformations in business and society of the postwar era. Shipping was both an example and an engine of globalization and structural change. In turn, the industry experienced and pioneered, mirrored and enabled key developments that led to the present-day globalized economy. Contributions address issues such as the macro-level shift of shipping’s centre of gravity from Europe to Asia, the political and legal frameworks within which it developed, the strategies and performance of both successful and unsuccessful firms, and the links between the shipping industry and the wider economy and society. Without shipping and its ability to forge connections and networks of a global reach, the modern world would look very different. By bringing together scholars from various disciplinary and national backgrounds, this book advances our understanding of the linkages that bind economies and societies together.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Ocean Container Transport Logistics by : Chung-Yee Lee
Download or read book Handbook of Ocean Container Transport Logistics written by Chung-Yee Lee and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-13 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is focused on the impact of ocean transport logistics on global supply chains. It is the first book solely dedicated to the topic, linking the interaction of parties along this chain, including shippers, terminal operators and line carriers. While ocean container transport logistics has been greatly studied, there are many important issues that have yet to receive the attention they deserve. The editors and contributing authors of Ocean Container Transport Logistics: Making Global Supply Chain Effective seek to address these topics and shed new light on the subject. The book is divided into three parts. Part I examines the innovation, trends, competition and business model of container terminal operations. In Part II, the book looks at how tactical and operational management is used in shipping liners. The chapters cover topics such as empty container repositioning, slow steaming, routing, network design and disruption management. Finally Part III explores at shippers and global supply chain management, with chapters on transportation service procurement, hinterland transportation, green corridors, as well as competition and co-operation in maritime logistics operations. The eighteen chapters of the book all highlight the immediate effect of ocean transport logistics on global supply chain.
