“…Other researchers pay more attention to the prevention and management of risk factors which have negative impact on the safety of the CT. For example, Rekik et al [10] established an architecture for a multi agent solution for stacking container including containers with dangerous goods. Also, Rekik and Elkosantini [11] proposed a solution to determine the most suitable container location, with the ability to handle dangerous containers.…”

All over the world, the ports container terminals face several challenges, one of these challenges is to prevent and manage the risks that may occur. These risks, if not well managed, can affect the overall operation of the ports and also can lead to brutal accidents. In this paper we spot the light on the risks of a container terminal in order to conduct a risk assessment by using a mapping risk approach. This mapping approach is carried out to rank the risks by taking into account their specific criticality index and their influence to a port's safety. The data was collected from the container terminal of Tangier-Med port of Morocco. Then, the quantitative calculations were made in the aim to compare the results obtained with acceptable standards, and then use them to propose measures reducing or mitigating these risks.

“…Wang and Zhang 8 constructed an environment risk analysis model for dangerous goods storage and transportation based on the Management Oversight and Risk Tree to reveal the inner mechanisms between environment risk accidents and the inducing factors. Rekik et al 9 introduced the structure of a multi-agent container stacking system to handle different types of containers, including containers with dangerous goods.…”

Simulation research on the influence of special ships on waterway through capacity for a complex waterway system: a case study for the Port of Meizhou Bay

The study of waterway through capacity for ports is a challenging problem due to the randomness and complexity of the waterway system, which needs to be analyzed by simulation technology. This paper quantitatively studies the influence of special ships on waterway through capacity and provides corresponding measures to improve waterway through capacity. The complex waterway system in the Port of Meizhou Bay is employed as a case study. Considering the actual conditions in the Port of Meizhou Bay, including the ships, berths, waterways, and natural conditions, a Simio-based simulation model is established. The real operation data from the Port of Meizhou Bay in 2015 are used to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the model. The simulation results show that special ships reduce the waterway through capacity by 4.9% and suggest that circumnavigation strategies that can be adopted after the extension and new construction of waterway systems can improve the waterway through capacity by 5.9%.

Over the past decades, container transportation has achieved considerable growth, and maritime trade now constitutes 80% of the global trade. The vessel sizes increased in parallel, up to 21,400 TEU (Twenty-foot-equivalent unit container). Accordingly, global containerized trade reached up to 150 million TEU in 2017 (UNCTAD 2018). This growth brings the need to use scientific methods to manage and operate container terminals more economically throughout the globe. In order to manage container transshipment and to use large vessels efficiently, the docking time at the container port for each vessel should be minimized. The decrease in the docking time enables the vessel to move to its next destination faster, decreasing turnover time and facilitating more containers to be transported. Container terminals can be divided into five main areas as the berth, the quay, the storage yard, the transport area, and the gate. The vessels must be berthed in suitable positions, after which many containers have to be unloaded or loaded via quay cranes, transshipped by vehicles inside the terminal, and stacked by yard cranes to suitable positions, all by using expensive equipment. With the invention of new technologies, the bottleneck at the berth side is almost overcome; however, the yard and the quayside operations have to be further perfected to obtain efficient plans. In this comprehensive literature review study, we aim to combine the literature on both yard and quayside operations, carefully examining independently studied problems as well as integrated ones. General information about port operations and relevant literature is provided. For the quayside, the literature on quay crane assignment and scheduling problems is investigated, whereas, for the yard side, yard crane scheduling, transport vehicle dispatching and scheduling, vehicle routing and traffic control, and storage location and space planning problems are reviewed in depth. In addition to these individual problems, their integrations are also analyzed, relevant publications and their respective contributions are explained in detail. Besides the milestone papers that lead the literature on container terminals, recent publications and advances are also reviewed, and managerial insights and future research directions are identified.
