Mega-Vessels, Mega-Alliances and Cascades: Impacts for port operations and th...ICF
This document summarizes a presentation on mega-vessels, mega-alliances, and their impacts on port operations and the Australian market. Key points include:
- Container ship sizes and alliance groupings continue growing to achieve economies of scale, posing challenges for port infrastructure and operations. The largest vessels now exceed 18,000 TEUs.
- Demand for container shipping has remained subdued in recent years. Major lines are struggling financially despite cost reductions.
- Australian ports currently serve vessels up to 6,500 TEUs, constrained by infrastructure in Melbourne. The opening of the new Melbourne port may allow sizes up to 10,000 TEUs.
- Further increases in vessel size deploying to Australia

Jurong Port, a leading international multi-purpose port operator headquartered in Singapore, is selling five pre-owned Doosan quay cranes from its container terminal. The quay cranes were manufactured in 2007 and have capacities of 45-65 metric tons. Interested buyers should contact the listed representatives for more information and specifications on the equipment.
The document discusses key considerations for port development and container terminals, including design ship size, berth design, quay crane and terminal productivity improvements. It covers factors like required berth depth, layout options to accommodate larger vessels efficiently. The text also addresses yard layouts using different equipment like RTGs and RMGs, and the importance of strong land and transport connectivity for ports.
Port operation is affected by several key factors including berth allocation problems which deal with assigning space for vessels, tide levels which impact sea levels, weather conditions that involve temperature, wind and precipitation, equipment troubles that delay productivity, and manpower issues relating to worker health, attitude, deployment and management. Addressing these port problems can help lower consumer prices for imported goods and materials.
