“…Inter-island shipping alone accounts for more than 60% of the nation's sea cargo activities (World Bank Group 2013). Seo et al (2012), using DEA analysis, indicated that Surabaya has a relatively low efficiency rating when compared with other ASEAN ports. However, other studies that compared terminal level efficiency, found TPS to be a relatively efficient terminal in Indonesia, 6.…”

“…Surabaya's Tanjung Perak port as a whole did not achieve a good efficiency score, ranking last in the port ranking. Seo et al (2012) used a similar DEA CCR model in their analysis with a larger sample size. This supports our DEA analysis for Tanjung Perak, where both the output and input-orientated model showed the lowest efficiency scores.…”

“…DEA has several applications to the seaport and related industries (Tongzon, 2001). Moreover, DEA is considered a suitable overall method for analyzing port production and performance (Seo et al, 2012). At present, several studies have analyzed the environmental, operational and production efficiency of general or container ports.…”

Purpose Seaports are a signifier for the world economy and international trade. Notwithstanding the considerable role of Chinese ports in global trade, only few studies have explored the efficiency of Chinese container terminals. Furthermore, studies on Chinese port efficiency has typically centered on port-level analysis, not terminal level. Therefore, this study aims to examine the operation efficiency of Chinese container terminals. Design/methodology/approach This study uses super-efficiency data envelopment analysis (SE-DEA) approach. SE-DEA is superior than basic DEA model because it is feasible for categorizing and ranking the efficiency of container terminals more accurately and comprehensively. In the basic model, if the several decision-making units (DMUs) are efficient, the efficiency value of them is “1.” However, in the SE-DEA model, the most efficient DMU is over “1.” Based on the level of container throughput in 2018, the top 20 Chinese container terminal companies were selected. Various production quotas were selected as inputs, while the container throughput was considered output. Findings The findings show that Terminal Shanghai Mingdong Container Terminal Co., Ltd. was ranked 1, followed by Shanghai Shengdong International Container Terminal Co., Ltd., Shanghai International Port (Group) Co., Ltd. and Yidong Container Terminal Branch. Originality/value This study contributes to providing some insights into Chinese container terminal industry to augment the efficiency. This study also provides practical and policy implications (e.g. better terminal operations) for container terminals.

“…The most efficient ports will be then benchmarked to improve the performance of the others. According to Seo et al (2012), factors employed to make the DEA analysis for ports in the South-East Asia are number of berth, berth length, number of crane, C/Y and throughput but the analysis is for only one year. Park However, using of DEA also has some drawbacks including lack of discrimination among efficient DMUs that occurs when the number of DMUs is small in comparison with the total number of variables in the analysis (Lidia, Marco, 2002).…”

“…In this study, DEA output oriented CCR is employed because container terminals operate under constant return to scale (Seo et al, 2012) In 2012, the most efficient ports are Green Port and Doan Xa port. Dinh Vu port and Hai An port with the efficiency of 0.95 and 0.93, respectively, are nearly the perfect ones.…”

: Sea-ports in Northern Vietnam have experienced a rapid growth of container throughput in recent years. To accompany with such development, huge investment also has been performed to enhance not only local port capacity but also the regional logistics system. Container terminals in Northern Vietnam locate centrally along Cam river of Haiphong city, leaving 2 others in Quang Ninh province. Five out of totally 11 container terminals in the area are under the control of Vinalines -a national corporation in field of maritime industry. In this paper, those terminals are classified in terms of location and ownership. The volume of container throughput and facilities of all container terminals in Northern Vietnam from 2005 to 2014 are recorded in order to compare the performance of groups. A Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is then applied to evaluate the relative efficiency of such terminals. Before conclusion, number of suggestions will be contributed to related parties.
