Ships being used for the transport of containers are increasing in size. What consequences does this deployment of larger ships have on the shipping routes and the transport flows around the world, and on port activities. For example: instead of calling at multiple ports on a continent, larger vessels are more often limited to sailing back and forth between only a few specific ports, from one part of the world to another. Nowadays, the largest ships have a capacity of more than 20,000 TEU (the indication for the dimensions of containers, the abbreviation stands for Twenty Foot Equivalent Unit). The enormous growth of these ultra-large container vessels inevitably leads to other logistical concepts. What will that mean for cargo flows? Rotterdam is often the first call in the region for ships from other continents, which is an advantage over the competitors. Nevertheless the call size only increases to a limited extent and the ships continue to visit other ports as well.<\/p>\n There is a limited number of alliances of shipping companies that have a worldwide network. What determines their choices? What are logical routes for them? What is their planning? What other parameters influence the call size? For example: Is there a seasonal regularity? And what is the effect of the stagnation in the growth of container transport?<\/p>\n As taking measures may entail social costs, it needs to be determined which measures are justified.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#00baf0″ divider_weight=”2″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” admin_label=”Verdeler” _builder_version=”4.16″ hide_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Sectie” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ admin_label=”Rij” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/smartport.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Challenges-4.png” show_in_lightbox=”on” admin_label=”Afbeelding” _builder_version=”4.16″ animation=”left” sticky=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”challenges” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Rij” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#00baf0″ divider_weight=”2″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” admin_label=”Verdeler” _builder_version=”4.16″ hide_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ admin_label=”Rij” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”impact” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/smartport.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Impact-3.png” show_in_lightbox=”on” admin_label=”Afbeelding” _builder_version=”4.16″ animation_direction=”right” animation=”right” sticky=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Rij” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#00baf0″ divider_weight=”2″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” admin_label=”Verdeler” _builder_version=”4.16″ hide_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ admin_label=”Rij” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/smartport.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Partners-2.png” show_in_lightbox=”on” admin_label=”Afbeelding” _builder_version=”4.16″ animation=”left” sticky=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”partners” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Erasmus University Rotterdam, Hutchison Ports – ECT, Port of Rotterdam Authority.

\nRotterdam is ahead of other ports due to its location right by the sea and its strong infrastructure that can receive even the largest ships. How can we ensure that the call size, the number of containers unloaded by the ships in the port, continues to increase (port of choice)? What are parameters that influence the call size of seagoing vessels? How can terminals prepare for the ever-expanding ships?<\/strong><\/p>\n
