Technical knowledge is a must to fully understand capital intensive shipping activities.
Ships’ technical characteristics guide the world transport infrastructure investments, and are constraints to take in consideration to calculate cost and revenues or when considering the potential trading routes. As a floating production unit, the prevailing conditions of a voyage have a direct impact on the capacity, time and cost (tonnage, sea & weather, ports characteristics…etc).
