Cooperation between vessel service providers in ports
An impact analysis using simulation for the Port of Rotterdam
Cooperation between vessel service providers can improve the performance of ports. However, the potential impact of such cooperation has not yet been quantitatively addressed in the literature. We present an assessment using a port simulation model where the exchange of informati
...
Ports are vital for maritime logistics. With the growth of maritime traffic, ports, and their actor organizations have faced rising pressure. Improving port call performance, to accommodate more vessels in shorter times, is now on top of the agenda for many ports. The performance

Information sharing to mitigate delays in port
The case of the Port of Rotterdam
Reliability of service times has long been a concern of many ports around the world. This paper presents an approach to mitigate delays in service times through improved information sharing in ports. The approach is based on a mapping of information sharing links and their associ

Stress testing the Nautical Chain: A Discrete Event Simulation to Improve The Resilience of The Nautical Chain
A Case Study Of The Port Of Rotterdam
Maritime logistics is important for the international volume of trade. Ports are critical in cargo transhipment and provide services to vessels like traffic management, piloting, towage and mooring, which together are called the Nautical Chain since these services are dependent o

The critical areas of information sharing for the improvement of efficiency in the nautical chain
A Port of Rotterdam case study
Recently, pressure on port authorities to improve port efficiency is increasing due to port competitiveness. Multiple activities within a port influence the efficiency of a port. In this research, the processes of the 'nautical chain' are considered. The nautical chain consists o

Simulating the nautical chain of operation in the deep-sea port
A port of Rotterdam case study
With the development of market globalization, the demand for an efficient and safe nautical chain in the deep-sea port increases. The complexity of nautical service network boosts the request from port authority to ask for a state-of-the-art simulation model that can improve the
