Abstract (sommario):

AbstractThe paper analyses the composition, social organization and wide range of activities of the Indian maritime merchant of the early modern period. Regional contrasts between Gujarat, the Coromandel coast and Bengal are discussed. The last section of the paper discusses the interaction between the Indian maritime merchants and the Europeans, both the corporate enterprises as well as private traders. It is argued that the Indian merchants displayed a remarkable degree of adaptiveness and resilience and refused to be overwhelmed by the competition provided by the Europeans. Cet article analyse la composition, l'organisation sociale, et les activités diverses qu'exploitent les marchands maritimes indiens du début de la période moderne. Les contrastes régionaux entre le Gujarat, la côte du Coromandel et le Bengal passeront la revue. La dernière section de l'article est consacrée à l'interaction entre les marchands maritimes indiens et les Européens, tant les grandes sociétés de négoce que la marine de commerce privée. Il est avancé que les marchands indiens se montrèrent très adaptifs et dynamiques et qu'ils refusèrent d'être subjugués par la concurrence survenue par l'arrivée des Européens.

Abstract (sommario):

Increasingly fierce competition causes university managers, both private universities (PTS) and public universities (PTN), to maximize existing resources. Not only on resource management but also must pay attention to the ability of each unit or part of the college that has selling value to the community, has something different from competitors and also pays attention, implements regulations from the government and has differentiation. Innovation gets the attention of maritime universities in Semarang by making continuous improvements. In addition to continuous improvement, they also make overall changes. The competitive advantage of maritime universities in Semarang is able to provide the best quality by getting a quality standard assessment from IMO, ISO, and having an international standard network. Maritime Universities in Semarang are universities that have differences compared to universities in general. It is something different and has a uniqueness, but like other universities, massively also has a strategy to increase competitive advantage, so the hope of maritime college in Semarang is to have many and sustainable students.

Abstract (sommario):

Development plans across the Gulf Cooperation Council emphasise logistical infrastructure as a driver of economic diversification. Investments in maritime ports, roads, rail, airports and logistics cities are transforming the economic geography of the region. This study aims to make visible this neglected aspect of the physical transformation of the Gulf Cooperation Council with a focus on the understudied maritime container ports in Oman and Qatar. Shifting the analysis to emergent maritime logistical infrastructure at a regional level gives insight into the uneven developments within the Gulf Cooperation Council’s integration project. Three key features emerge: (a) a large degree of duplication in maritime port infrastructure across Gulf Cooperation Council states; (b) a regional hierarchy among Gulf Cooperation Council states that are resource rich and those dependent on public–private partnerships and (c) increasing competition among internationally dominant port operators looking to gain access to the Gulf Cooperation Council maritime port market. These features both reflect and reinforce competitive tensions within the regional integration project.

Abstract (sommario):

The object of the article is research investigation of the development potential of modern maritime industry, including the financial component as essential prerequisites for competitive advantages of modern maritime business-structures in terms of the intensity growth of competition. The components of potential development of maritime transport enterprises are determined. The principles of assessing the potential maritime business enterprise are examined, including its financial component, based on the calculation system of indicators. The financial potential of the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority is analyzed. The influence of the quality of the pricing decisions on the level of development potential of port enterprises as an important component of the maritime industry of Ukraine is determined. The state and prospects of the development of a national system of port dues is reviewed. The measures to improve the quality of pricing decisions at the example of activities of port enterprises, particularly in the sphere of port dues forming, are proposed. The expediency of introducing incentive tariff approach, which is a prerequisite for attracting additional investments to build and modernize maritime transport infrastructure is established. The basic set of criteria for evaluating strategies of development of maritime transport enterprises is determined.

Abstract (sommario):

Maritime traffic can reflect the diverse and complex relations between countries and regions, such as economic trade and geopolitics. Based on the AIS (Automatic Identification System) trajectory data of ships, this study constructs the Maritime Silk Road traffic network. In this study, we used a complex network theory along with social network analysis and network flow analysis to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of maritime traffic flow of the Maritime Silk Road; further, we empirically demonstrate the traffic inequality in the route. On this basis, we explore the role of the country in the maritime traffic system and the resulting traffic relations. There are three main results of this study. (1) The inequality in the maritime traffic of the Maritime Silk Road has led to obvious regional differences. Europe, west Asia, northeast Asia, and southeast Asia are the dominant regions of the Maritime Silk Road. (2) Different countries play different maritime traffic roles. Italy, Singapore, and China are the core countries in the maritime traffic network of the Maritime Silk Road; Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Lebanon, and Israel have built a structure of maritime traffic flow in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, and Saudi Arabia serves as a bridge for maritime trade between Asia and Europe. (3) The maritime traffic relations show the characteristics of regionalization; countries in west Asia and the European Mediterranean region are clearly polarized, and competition–synergy relations have become the main form of maritime traffic relations among the countries in the dominant regions. Our results can provide a scientific reference for the coordinated development of regional shipping, improvement of maritime competition, cooperation strategies for countries, and adjustments in the organizational structure of ports along the Maritime Silk Road.

Abstract (sommario):

This research inisiated from the ehancement of Indonesia-India’s maritime cooperation in 2015. Indonesia and India has great role in their region. Every aspect of their policy reflecting their own national interest and strategy. These enhancement become interesting because its need to explain by geopolitic and geostrategy point of view. The author try to explain the reasons of enhancement base on maritime geopolitic and geostrategy. This research believe that theory of hedging strategy and theory of maritime sea power could be the best answer to this issue. To give the reasons of enhancement, this reaserch has time range between 2001-2005. This research argues that the enhancement is caused by Indonesia’s hedging strategy in the middle of strategic rivalry between two great powers in region.By cooperation with both India and China, Indonesia use hedging strategy to face the uncertainty condition by India and China competition in Indian Ocean. Through hedging strategy, Indonesia could also implementating his ambition of sea power and maintain his chokepoint security.Keywords: Hedging, Maritim, Indonesia, India, China, Strategic Rivalry

Abstract (sommario):

J’évalue l’impact des réglementations commerciales et concurrentielles dans transport maritime de ligne sur la structure du marché, les coûts de transport et le commerce maritime. D’abord, je quantifie le niveau global des Barrières Commerciales (BC) dans le secteur du transport maritime de ligne en construisant un Indice de Restriction du Commerce des Services (IRCS). Cet indicateur est inclus dans une analyse économétrique en deux étapes. Les BC sont susceptibles d’influencer le commerce maritime à travers les Coûts de Transport Maritime (CTM). Ainsi, j’évalue l'impact des BC sur les CTM, puis l'impact des CTM sur le commerce maritime. Je montre que les BC ont un impact positif sur les CTM et que les CTM ont un impact négatif sur le commerce maritime. Ainsi, les BC ont un impact indirect négatif sur le commerce maritime. Je montre aussi qu’en plus d’affecter négativement le commerce maritime à travers les CTM, la distance a un impact positif direct sur le commerce maritime. Ensuite, j’évalue l'impact des barrières réglementaires à l'entrée sur la structure du marché et les CTM. D’abord, j’évalue l'impact de la réglementation sur la structure du marché. Puis, j’évalue l'impact de la structure du marché sur les CTM. Je montre que la présence de conférences maritimes n’a pas d’impact sur le nombre de compagnies sur les routes alors que la présence d'accords de discussion a un impact positif. De plus, lorsqu’elles atteignent un seuil, les BC ont un impact négatif sur le nombre de compagnies. En outre, je montre les BC affectent les CTM à travers la structure du marché et les coûts marginaux. Enfin, je montre que les compagnies maritimes de ligne exercent un pouvoir de marché
This dissertation aims at assessing the impact of liner shipping trade and competition regulations on the market structure, prices, and seaborne trade flows. To quantify the overall level of trade restrictions in the liner shipping sector, I construct an original Service Trade Restrictiveness Index (STRI). The original STRI is included in a two-stage econometric analysis. Since barriers to trade are likely to influence seaborne trade through maritime transport costs (MTCs), in a first stage, I assess the impact of trade restrictions on MTCs. And, in a second stage I assess the impact of MTCs on seaborne trade flows. I show that barriers to trade affect positively MTCs and that MTCs affect negatively seaborne trade flows. Thus, barriers to trade have an indirect and negative impact on seaborne trade flows. Furthermore, I show that distance affects positively MTCs. The results also suggest that besides affecting negatively seaborne trade through MTCs, distance affect directly and positively seaborne trade. I assess the impact of regulatory barriers to entry on the market structure and MTCs. In a first stage, I assess the impact of regulations on the market structure. In a second stage, I assess the impact of the market structure on MTCs. I show that the presence of maritime conferences does not affect the number of carriers on routes while the presence of discussion agreements does. Moreover, when they reach a critical level, barriers to trade limit the number of carriers. Furthermore, I show barriers to trade affect MTCs through the market structure and marginal costs. Finally, I show that shipping exercise a market power even though this effect is small

Abstract (sommario):

Competition law, as it applies to the maritime industry has on a global scale been subject to a "laissez-faire"-attitude. In fact, collusion has been encouraged. Collusion in the maritime industry has its historic origin in the colonial period. The evolution within this particular industry truly is a study in industrial organizational structure.
This Thesis sets out to explain and analyze the current regulatory scheme of the European Union, as it applies to the maritime industry (European, as well as non-European). This is accomplished through an in-depth statutory interpretation of EU Council Regulation 4056/86 dated 22/12 1986, laying down detailed rules for the application of Articles 85 and 86 of the Treaty of Rome to the maritime transport (Conferences), as well as the Commission Regulation 870/95 dated April 20, 1995 on the application of Article 85(3) of the Treaty of Rome to certain categories of agreements, decisions and concerted practices between liner shipping companies (Consortia).
This Thesis concludes that the former regulatory scheme is no longer up to date and thus requires replacement. The Thesis favours current developments within the maritime industry which call for increased co-operation and concentration among the carriers and providers of services (as well as co-operation as between the carriers and shippers), counter-balanced by restrictive regulation through the application of conditions, market share-restrictions and a limited five year application of the regulatory framework.
The former regulatory scheme, Council-Regulation 4056/86, which remains in force, must therefore be interpreted restrictively, and in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty of Rome, in particular Articles 85 and 86.
Finally, this Thesis provides various solutions to soften the impact of full-scale application of the competition law of the European Union, as it will be applied in the maritime industry.

Abstract (sommario):

The thesis deals with selected competition issues that occur within the dynamic and high-risk market of shipping, examining competition law issues in liner consortia and tramp pools through an EU Competition Law prism. These partial function joint ventures are the predominant form of alliances in the maritime sector. Liner trade is primarily organised in consortia, while pools are the most common form of tramp shipping alliance. The thesis' synthetic and analytic research incorporates the methodology and structure used in its competition law bibliography, while the legal analysis is informed with sources from microeconomics and maritime economics. The issues that are examined in relation to shipping include the four main areas of competition law: the relevant market, indicators of dominance, compliance of the alliance agreements with Article 101 TFEU and abusive conducts by dominant undertakings under Article 102 TFEU. The development of the above areas aims to demonstrate the interaction of sector particularities with competition law as a whole.

Abstract (sommario):

The increasing volume of container trade poses formidable security challenges. As a result of terrorist attacks, a variety of compulsory and voluntary security measures have been introduced to enhance and secure maritime container trade. The United States (US) Container Security Initiative (CSI) was claimed to impose serious problems in European Union (EU) ports, and in particular it was claimed to affect EU container port competitiveness due to compliance cost and operational inefficiency. This research aimed to analyse the impact of the CSI on EU container seaport competition. Following an abductive approach, a conceptual model was developed based on the literature review. This directed the design of a Delphi study, which was used to test the opinions of academic, industrial and administrative experts. The Delphi results showed the necessity of implementing maritime security measures integrated into the entire supply chain. The negativity effects of additional costs and operational obstructions are insignificant compared to the overall benefits from a secure supply chain. The CSI is a successful and appropriate maritime security measure. With regard to its effects on the EU container seaport competition, the CSI has not distorted port competition and small ports have not lost market share. It helps the member ports to create new revenue streams and attract more container traffic, hence enhancing their competitiveness. Moreover, it facilitates global trade by reducing total transit time. A model which contains four factors was built to interpret the results of the Delphi research. This model helps to analyse how a maritime security policy will affect the EU port industry. This research also reveals two major issues under the current supply chain security framework, which are the substantial liability problem and unbalanced bilateral relations. A proposal for developing a comprehensive multilateral regime that is fully integrated into the entire supply chain is recommended as a sustainable solution.

Abstract (sommario):

Globalization of the world’s economy, containerization, intermodalism and specialization have reshaped transport systems and the industries that are considered crucial for the international distribution of goods such as the port industry. Simultaneously, economies of location, economies of scope, economies of scale, optimization of production factors, and clustering of industries have triggered port regionalization and inland integration of port services especially those provided by container terminals. In this integration dry ports have emerged as a vital intermodal platform for the effective and efficient distribution of containerized cargo. Dry ports have enabled port and hinterland expansion increasing the competitiveness of container terminals at seaports. In consequence, container terminals and dry ports are establishing formal and informal relationships to strengthen the competitiveness of their hinterlands and to improve their role in the physical distribution of goods. This study assesses the characteristics of relationships between container terminals and dry ports. Such assessment is conducted based on a set of relationship characteristics proposed in a relationship assessment model for customer/supplier, in which dry ports are given the role of suppliers of port services to container terminals. In addition, the research assesses the impact of the relationships between container terminals and dry ports on inter-port competition. The main findings of the research led to conclude relationships between container terminals and dry ports are characterized by medium mutuality, low particularity, low co-operation, low conflict, low intensity, low interpersonal inconsistency, high power/dependence and medium trust. Additionally, it was concluded that such relationship characteristics impact inter-port competition in two main ways. In one hand by driving container terminals to maximize the utilization of dry port’s capabilities such as container transport/delivery, container storage, customs clearance, information systems and intermodal connections to industrial clusters. On the other hand, by constructing channels of interaction through which dry port’s benefits for hinterlands such as increase of container terminal capacity, reduction of road congestion, increase of modal shift and hinterland expansion are used as leverage in competition for containerized cargo.

Abstract (sommario):

Bassora se situe au fond du golfe Arabique. L’Irak ne possède qu’une modeste bande littorale sur le golfe Arabique, d’une longueur de 58 km, qui lui permet de donner sur le monde. Cette côte a une influence importante sur le commerce local comme sur le commerce extérieur de l’Irak étant donné qu’elle accueille les navires chargés de marchandises venant de divers pays, ainsi que l’exportation du pétrole. Cette situation a créé beaucoup d’opportunités comme elle a suscité des périls. Durant les deux dernières décennies, les ports irakiens ont connu une forte concurrence de la part des ports de pays voisins (Koweït, Jordanie, Syrie, Arabie Saoudite, Iran, Émirats Arabes Unis) qui ont fait des progrès et des développements remarquables, alors que, au contraire, la performance et l’efficacité des ports irakiens ont diminué au cours de la même période à cause des guerres des années 1980-2000 (avec la 1ère, la 2e et la 3e guerre du Golfe). Parmi les causes qui ont affaibli et causé un grand tort aux ports irakiens, il faut relever en particulier le blocus économique qui a été imposé à l’Irak durant 13 ans. Ce qui a incité le pays à utiliser les ports des pays voisins, tels que le port commercial d’Aqaba, pour importer et exporter des marchandises. Suite à l’ouverture économique de l’Irak après 2003, le pays a eu besoin de ports efficaces et efficients pour accueillir les navires avec des services attractifs et une bonne qualité de service. L’amélioration de leur compétitivité est alors devenue une nécessité. La thèse positionne la problématique irakienne dans le champ scientifique de la géographie des transports, dont elle utilise les concepts. Elle se place dans le champ général de l’émergence pour inscrire le cas particulier de l’Irak dans une réflexion qui vise à démontrer que, malgré un contexte encore dominé par des facteurs négatifs, la rationalité du monde des transports et de la logistique peut imposer un scénario de croissance sinon de développement durable. Par conséquent, cette étude vient révéler les possibilités des ports irakiens actuels. Elle s’intéresse aux problèmes et aux obstacles qu’ont connus les ports irakiens, ainsi qu’à l’analyse de leur compétitivité actuelle et à leurs perspectives d’avenir. De grands travaux sont nécessaires. L’organisation interne des ports doit également être revue. En construisant le port de Fao, qui est une étape essentielle pour l’amélioration de la compétitivité de l’Irak et en réponse aux exigences du commerce mondial, le pays relève la tête. Son but est d’entrer dans la compétition, non seulement en revoyant son schéma portuaire, mais également en développant des stratégies d’arrière-pays et de corridors multimodaux. Ainsi, avec Bassora-Fao, et en dépassant les seules logiques pétrolières, l’Irak peut retrouver une place dans le monde
Basrah in the bottom of the Arabian Gulf. Iraq possesses a small 58km-coastline in the Arabian Gulf which gives the country a strategic view of the world. This side has a vital influence on the Iraqi local market as well as the global one since imports goods from various countries and mainly exports oil. Such a condition has triggered great opportunities, but it has unfortunately caused perils. During the last two decades, Iraqi ports have witnessed a tough competition with neighbor countries’ ports (Kuwait, Jordan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iran, United Arab Emirates) who have been through noticeable development and progress while , the performance and efficiency of the Iraqi ports decreased during the same period because of the wars Iraq has conducted between 1980-2000 (1st , 2nd and 3rd Gulf war) . One of the causes which has weakened and caused shortcoming to the Iraqi ports is the economic blockade which has been imposed on Iraq for 13 years. This eventually forced Iraq to resort to neighbor countries’ ports goods such as the commercial port of Aqaba in order to import and export. Due to Iraqi economic prosperity after 2003, the country was in urgent need of affective and efficient ports that would enable it to host ships with attractive and high-quality services. Enhancing their competitiveness has thus became of great importance.This paper locates the Iraqi problematic in the scientific field of the geography of transport of the concept of which is seeks to rely on. It is framed within the emergency context to to include the particular case of Iraq in a reflection which aims to demonstrate that, despite a context still dominated by negative factors, the rationality of the world of transport and logistics can Impose a scenario of growth if not of sustainable development. Therefore, this survey proposes to reveal the possibilities of actual Iraqi ports It aims to study both the problems and obstacles that the Iraqi ports have witnessed and the actual actual competitiveness and for their future perspectives. A huge amount of work isis, accordingly, deemed necessary.The internal organization of ports needs to be examined. With the building of Fao port, which is an essential step towards the enhancement of Iraq’s competiveness and a response to the requirements of global market, Iraq holds its head high. Its goal is to enter the competition, not only by reexamining its port schema , but , in fact , by developing backcountry strategies and multimodal corridors. Furthermore, with Al-Basrah –Fao and through going beyond the oil logics alone, Iraq can find a maritime opening on the world

Abstract (sommario):

La présente thèse a pour ambition d’évaluer la structure de marché du transport maritime de lignes régulières, en particulier au regard de l’intégration maritime au sein de l’ASEAN. Les problématiques principales abordées dans le cadre de ce travail sont liées aux déterminants fondamentaux des taux de fret, à la connectivité maritime, à l’efficacité portuaire et à la compétition sur les routes maritimes. Les analyses reposent sur l’utilisation d’outils méthodologiques précis tels que les modèles Markov-Switching Vecteur Autorégressifs, la Théorie des graphes, l'Analyse d'enveloppement des données, l'Analyse en composantes principales et le partitionnement de données. Les résultats permettent d’identifier trois cycles économiques entre 2003 et 2017, et montrent que le développement de la flotte a eu des effets négatifs non négligeables sur les taux de fret. L’étude illustre que le classement portuaire change en fonction des différents coefficients de centralités. Les résultats de l’analyse de la modularité confortent l’intuition d’une bonne connectivité maritime intra-ASEAN. De plus, le réseau maritime de l’ASEAN possède des attributs similaires aux flux d’échanges commerciaux. Cette analyse de l’intégration maritime régionale est complétée par une étude plus approfondie permettant de visualiser les ports les plus efficaces de la communauté. Une dernière analyse de la compétition sur les routes maritimes met en avant les trajets sur lesquels le nombre d’entreprises en concurrence est le plus élevé. Au final, la thèse permet de mieux comprendre comment est organisé le transport de conteneurs au niveau mondial et régional, et comment s’effectue l'intégration maritime de l’ASEAN dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement mondiale
This dissertation aims to analyze the structure and the evolution of the Container Liner Shipping Industry by paying particular attention to the maritime integration of ASEAN member states. The factors behind freight rates, maritime connectivity, port efficiency and competition on maritime routes are the central topics of research. Methodological tools such as Markov-Switching Vector Autoregressive Approach, Graph Theory, Data Envelopment Analysis, as well as Principle Component Analysis and Cluster Analysis are employed. The findings from the research show that between 2003 and 2017 three economic cycles occurred and that fleet development had the most profound negative impact on freight rates. The Network Analysis of 153 ports confirms a hub-and-spoke nature of the shipping network. The study illustrates that port rankings change according to different centrality measures. It also demonstrates that ASEAN member states form a cluster of interconnected ports, and their shipping network has the same features as the intra-regional country exports. To complete the analysis of ASEAN maritime integration, this research outlines the most efficient ports within the community and the optimum container handling capacity. Competition on maritime routes, with respect to the country and region of origin and the destination, is also evaluated by highlighting the most concentrated routes in terms of number of competing firms. Moreover, the findings of this dissertation provide key answers to understanding how the industry is organized at global and regional levels, and the extent of maritime integration of the ASEAN region within the global supply chain

Abstract (sommario):

Uma compreensão aprofundada da dinâmica de competição portuária é particularmente importante dado o contexto atual do setor, que orienta à outorga de novos portos e terminais no Brasil, à luz da Nova Lei dos Portos, Lei Nº 12.815 de 2013. A avaliação dos reais impactos decorrentes do aumento de capacidade portuária em cada região será atividade fundamental para que, por um lado, o poder público oriente a alocação efetiva de recursos, sem prejudicar a operação dos complexos existentes; e para que a iniciativa privada, por sua vez, possa compreender os impactos dos possíveis novos empreendimentos sobre as suas operações e delinear estratégias comerciais compatíveis com o novo cenário competitivo. A partir de extensa revisão bibliográfica e da aplicação de técnicas a casos específicos, o presente trabalho detalha a dinâmica competitiva entre terminais de contêineres e avalia criticamente seis métodos utilizados para identificar a existência de competição: correlação de market share, comparação de taxas de ocupação, sobreposição de escalas marítimas, comparação de custos logísticos terrestres, representatividade da região de influência contestável e existência de poder de mercado sobre a região de influência. Dos seis métodos analisados, dois apresentam conclusões fulminantes para a questão, embora sua aplicação demande grande volume de informações; um é assertivo em condições normais de distribuição geográfica de cargas; dois apresentam condições necessárias, porém não suficientes para a identificação de competição; e um deve ser aplicado com ressalvas, uma vez que pode levar a conclusões equivocadas.
A further comprehension of port competition dynamics is particularly important in the current context of port sector in Brazil, which guides to the granting of new ports and maritime terminals, based on the Law no. 12.815 of 2013, the New Law of Ports. The evaluation of the real impacts arising from port capacity expansion in each region will be a crucial activity. One the one hand, the authorities must ensure the ideal resource allocation, while safeguarding existing terminals. On the other, the private initiative must comprehend the impacts of new terminals upon their operations, in order to draw up new commercial strategies compatible with the new competitive scenario. This study, based on an extensive bibliographic review and on the application of techniques to specific cases, details the competition dynamics among container terminals and evaluates critically six methods that allow its identification: market shares correlation, occupancy rates comparison, ship calls overlapping, terrestrial logistic costs comparison, contestable influence region representativeness and the existence of significant market power. Among the six analyzed methods, two present fulminant conclusions about competition existence, but they depend on a large volume of well detailed information; one shows assertive conclusion regarding normal condition of cargo geographical distribution; other two represent a necessary, although not sufficient, condition for competition and one must be used under reservations, once it may lead to erroneous conclusions.

Abstract (sommario):

La présente thèse porte sur le développement du port de Shanghai de 1843 à 1912, en se concentrant sur l’histoire des entreprises étrangères installées à Shanghai pendant cette période. À une époque où la Chine promeut son Initiative de la Ceinture et la Route, visant à étendre son influence mondiale en aidant les pays participants à développer leurs infrastructures publiques, notamment portuaires, il est intéressant de réétudier l’histoire du développement du port de Shanghai durant la période concessionnaire. Les concessions étrangères de Shanghai et les entreprises privées établies sur place entre 1843 et 1912 ont joué un rôle essentiel dans la construction du port de cette ville, qui est devenu par la suite un modèle de développement pour les autres villes portuaires chinoises. La ville de Shanghai telle que nous la connaissons aujourd’hui trouve ses fondations durant cette période. Cette thèse essaie de démontrer en quoi les compétitions commerciales des entreprises étrangères présentes à Shanghai ont été le moteur du développement de son port. Elle explore le contexte historique, les étapes clés de la construction du port, l'aménagement et la gestion, ainsi que l'impérialisme occidental et l'émergence d'une conscience nationale chinoise
This thesis focuses on the development of the Shanghai port from 1843 to 1912, with a particular emphasis on the history of foreign enterprises established in Shanghai during this period. At a time when China is promoting its Belt and Road Initiative, aimed at expanding its global influence by assisting participating countries in developing their public infrastructure, including ports, it is interesting to reexamine the history of the development of the Shanghai port during the concession period. The foreign concessions in Shanghai and the private enterprises established there between 1843 and 1912 played a crucial role in the construction of the port, which later became a development model for other Chinese port cities. The city of Shanghai as we know it today has its foundations in this period. This thesis seeks to demonstrate how the commercial competition among foreign enterprises in Shanghai drove the development of its port. It explores the historical context, key stages of port construction, planning and management, as well as Western imperialism and the emergence of Chinese national consciousness

Abstract (sommario):

The Office of Naval Research recognizing the importance of education, specifically science and mathematics, embarked nearly a decade ago on their National Naval Responsibility for Naval Engineering program. Since then, academia, industry, and SNAME have increased their individual and collaborative efforts towards reaching out to students in an effort to share the excitement and opportunities available within the marine industry. Recently, in this vein, the Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding Apprentice School Chapter of the Hampton Roads SNAME chapter held a “Boat Design Competition” exposing over 240 high school students from 10 school districts (30 teams from 18 different high schools) to the excitement and knowledge needed to prepare design, construction and engineering packages using guidelines, lectures, and tutorial videos prepared by Apprentices and veteran Naval Architects. This was the first time high school students had the opportunity to compete in a head-to-head competition to design, construct, and operate the best boat relative to a number of prescribed requirements. The program also served to educate Apprentices in leadership, project management, research methods, brainstorming, naval architecture and systems engineering as well as establish a nurturing relationship between student chapter and veteran SNAME members which continues today.

Abstract (sommario):

As part of his study the author concluded a case study to show that lean manufacture should be implemented specifically in the case of emergency dry-docking which leads to an international competition in ship repair. This case study discusses an accident that happened to a bulk carrier while crossing the Suez Canal, where she was grounded from the forward area causing severe damage concentrated in the Fore compartment and separate localized other damage in way of the bilge keel. A request was sent from the owner to the surrounding shipyards to see the space availability for emergency dry-docking and the best approach for handling such case. For this case the author as project manager in the respective shipyard that had been selected, is illustrating what is done and what should be done as response for similar emergency Dry-docking

Abstract (sommario):

In late 2001 classification societies Lloyd’s Register, the American Bureau of Shipping and Det Norske Veritas (LR, ABS and DNV) announced plans to standardize a wide number of mutually agreed upon initiatives covering survey and engineering. This standardization process was precipitated as a response to calls for more robust requirements as well as a Class response to calls for improvement made by governments, industry and the general public. One of the initiatives was the establishment of a joint tanker project team (JTP) to develop Common Structural Rules for Tankers so that competition on structural requirements (safety) would be eliminated. Once the common rules are finalized and in effect, they will replace the current tanker rules of LR, ABS and DNV. This paper outlines the rule development process, key technical aspects of the common rules, the impact to the design scantlings, and future maintenance of these rules.

Abstract (sommario):

This paper reviews the process of the complete design development, from concept to completion of the largest and most capable fireboats in North America, and among the largest in the world, for the Fire Department of New York (FDNY). The Three Forty-Three is the first of two new fireboats to this design built at Eastern Shipbuilding Inc. of Panama City, Florida and delivered in May 2010. The second vessel is due for completion later in the year. As the result of an international design competition, Robert Allan Ltd. was selected to provide complete engineering and design services for the new boats, from initial concept through detailed engineering design and a comprehensive value engineering process. The scope of services also included the support of FDNY through every stage of major component procurement and the shipbuilding contract award. Robert Allan Ltd.’s shipyard supervisory staff also acted in the capacity of Owner’s Representatives on-site in the shipyard throughout the entire construction process. These major, fast response fireboats were designed to specifically address the fire-fighting and rescue needs of the greater New York harbour, including the New Jersey shore. This includes the capability within the vessel to respond to any CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear) incident. The fireboats are designed for a response speed of 17.4 knots, with a low-wake, 12 knot cruising/patrol speed. The powering, seakeeping, and wake generation characteristics of the semi-displacement hull form were all verified in an extensive model-testing program. The resulting propulsion system is a unique quadruple screw, CPP configuration. The paper focuses on the various initial studies performed to establish the basic design configuration, the model testing and performance verification process, the value engineering studies performed, the many unique design features of the fire-fighting and emergency response capability of these vessels and the performance trials results. Finally, the challenges of managing a major shipbuilding project for a major civic Government Client such as FDNY concludes the paper.

Abstract (sommario):

The maritime industry is currently going through a significant number of changes due to the introduction of tighter emission regulations. A stronger awareness in preserving the environment has pushed forward more stringent IMO (International Maritime Organization) legislation that imposes on ship owners and managers the use of new technologies which affect the day by day running of the vessel, starting with the choice of fuel, through changes in the engine operational parameters, and culminating in a severe reduction in allowable exhaust emissions. These changes combined with a volatile fuel market, high competition in cargo rates, the pressure to reduce operating costs and the introduction of new technological advancements have brought the industry into uncharted operational territories, abandoning the ‘comfort zone’ that has been enjoyed in the last twenty years or so. The present changeable environment has a significant impact in the way two-stroke, slow speed, diesel engines are managed, introducing new challenges for different fuel types, different lubricants and ancillary equipment required to meet the new requirements. Field experience has shown that all these factors can lead to unintended consequences, including engine damage caused by poor fuel quality, lack of training/knowledge of the operators, incorrect lubrication choice and poor set up. This paper discusses how the combination of offline and online condition monitoring techniques, both on-board and on-shore, can be successfully used to prevent engine damage and avoid unplanned maintenance costs due to downtime.

Abstract (sommario):

Maritime transport plays a very important role in connecting European ports and their hinterlands. According to recent data (ISL, 2017), approximately 400 million tons of combined short-haul freight transport (containers and ro-ro) are transhipped between ports within the EU or between ports in the EU and neighboring countries. The network of European short sea shipping services is large and diverse. Most ferry services bridge short distances, e.G. Via the English channel, the Fehmarn belt, or the strait of Gibraltar. At longer sea distances, trailers and containers are often shipped by combining transport with inland or rail transport inland. Most of these connections, which were developed only a few decades ago, operate successfully under the management of mostly private liner or container operators. For offshore traffic, competition is mainly between line operators and ports, but not between (except tunnels/bridges) economically viable alternatives. Improving the efficiency and expanding the capacity of such links makes transport cheaper and helps promote the single market.

Abstract (sommario):

Recent literature has emphasized the importance of transport costs and infrastructure in explaining trade, access to markets, and increases in per capita income. For most Latin American countries, transport costs are a greater barrier to U.S. markets than import tariffs. The authors investigate the determinants of shipping costs to the U.S. with a large database of more than 300,000 observations per year on shipments of products at the six-digit HS level from different ports around the world. In addition, the authors find that efficiency of ports is an important determinant of shipping costs. Inefficient ports also increase handling costs, which are one of the components of shipping costs. The authors try to explain variations in port efficiency and find that they are linked to excessive regulation, the prevalence of organized crime, and the general condition of the country's infrastructure. Finally, the authors present a number of success stories in Latin America to show that private involvement in port management leads to efficiency and lower costs whenever it is accompanied by labor reform, and when monopoly power is reduced through either regulation or competition.
