Shipping routes are the navigating lanes, both natural and man-made, in wide waterways (oceans, lakes…) used by large vessels to connect major ports and carry cargo. These routes allow efficient, safe, and economic transportation.
In this article, we’ll explore the top 10 largest global shipping companies as measured by TEU. The TEU is used as a unit of measurement that is used to determine cargo capacity and is derived from the dimensions of the standard 20-foot shipping container.
By port operations, we refer to a series of maritime procedures aimed to ensure the smooth transition of vessels and their containers from one terminal to another. Sea travel can be undertaken through many different means.
In the shipping industry, it is expected that cargo gets to the right place at the right time and that the delivery of goods goes smoothly. Companies & people rely on precise predictions of when a vessel will arrive with a shipment of goods and
A Smart Port is a digital port. “Smart” means being more attractive and innovative in a competitive sense. A Smart Port is a more effective, more performant, and more economically competitive port.
Water quality is one of the most important indicators in a healthy ecosystem. Good quality water sustains human life, wildlife and marine life and is a key element of maintaining biodiversity.
The United Nations has adopted regulations to preserve and protect the marine ecosystem under the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Part XII, article 194, invites all stakeholders to undertake any essential action “necessary to prevent, reduce and control pollution of the marine environment from any
The term SEL (Sound Exposure Level) commonly refers to the potential effects of sounds made by humans and machines on marine creatures. The whole sea transportation industry actors need to improve their business sustainability.
Metocean data is fundamental to the success of all marine offshore & renewable projects, from planning and exploration to design and implementation.
Metocean concerns understanding meteorological and oceanographic conditions in offshore coastal engineering or renewable energy projects.
Countries are accelerating their energy transition with the fight against climate change. They are actively exploring alternative solutions for electricity generation.
Water is fundamental for the survival of both land and marine species, our oceans, lakes, and rivers should remain as clean and safe as possible.
January 2023 will see a major change in shipping industry regulation with the implementation of the mandatory Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) measurement.
With a growing emphasis on globalization and accelerating digital transformation in the sea shipping industry, the Port Community System (PCS) becomes key to building smart ports.
Metocean data is fundamental to the success of all marine offshore & renewable projects, from planning and exploration to design and implementation.
Metocean concerns understanding meteorological and oceanographic conditions in offshore coastal engineering or renewable energy projects.
Roro is an acronym for Roll-on/roll-off. These vessels are intended to carry all kinds of wheeled cargo, which are loaded in and out on their own wheels.
Safety and efficiency are essential for the sea transportation industry. In this regard, some ships’ categories must be equipped with an AIS.
Maritime activities have always been the cornerstone of global trade. All throughout history, the human population has been aware that one of the main elements of having a successful and prosperous economy was securing access to the sea and vessels.
In the current era of the Internet and new technologies, the competitive environment and the customers’ behaviors and expectations have evolved. They require reliable, flexible, transparent and cost-efficient transport services.
Freight forwarders are key actors in the global supply chain. Being a fundamental intermediate between carriers and shippers, they interact with multiple parties from various sectors and manage a huge amount of data.
Climate change is a pressing issue, and we need to act together to find solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prevent further harm to our climate and oceans. Thankfully, AI has the ability to help humans discover new solutions by using advanced data processing.
3D CityScapes’ Digital Twin technology and Sinay’s advanced Artificial Intelligence algorithms, data, sensor information, and maritime industry knowledge are well on their way to enhancing seaports in an unprecedented way.
As ports adopt digital technology within their operations, another exciting innovation is making its presence felt: step forward the Digital Twin. This technology is enabling us to see what is happening now – and in the future – to our physical assets and infrastructure.
