Development Trend Of Large Container Ships

The process to large container vessels never relented, and has already gone through several generations of development, Large Container Ships future trends in today’s economic and shipping context is uncertain, although there are a lot of Chinese and foreign scholars discussed and predicted, but never related with the current international trade situation by quantitative link. From a market perspective, we can easily find the following questions:First, today the arguments about Large Container Ships coming to an end constraints on the pursuit of large container ships in shipping and shipbuilding sector. Since they don’t clear the Large Container Ships development trends in the future led to the choice of indecision in shipping related departments. Second, previous study about container ship often limited to ships and routes itself, not the situation for international trade quantitatively linked to the trend of large container ship, just from the microscopic point of view of the industry.In this paper, on the basis of a profound analysis of the impact of Large Container Ships factors, we learn the link between development of large container ship and world trade exports, designed to explore the trend of today’s large container vessels.First, through literature review analysis we study the history of development of large container vessels, after a six-generationdevelopment container vessels have entered the era of ten thousands TEU.Then, on the basis of summing up the law of its development we analyse the influence of the economic situation in the world today for the shipping industry, then provide a basis for international trade and Large Container Ship’s qualitative relationship. Second, followed by various factors for the promotion and restriction of development of large Container Ships trends we conclude the core influencing factors.We find cost savings, investment, increasing traffic, shipping operations, ship performance five aspects ship profound promote large-scale development, and route conditions, terminal facilities, cargo handling and transport, ship speed, voyage factors, such defects will largely hindered the development of large-scale container ship. Third, we analyse the relationship between Large Container Ship development and international trade based on VAR Model, concluding quantitative relationship between the two, we find that trade export total value has a positive effect on the trend of large container ship in a short period, then the effect poor slowly year to year. Finally, to sum up, we provide the large Container Ships development proposals.The results of this study for Large Container Ships study and shipping companies selecting ships has a certain reference value.
