Berthing – What changes?

Positives Large operations with high crane intensity

Increasing berth productivity and hence Terminals Berth Capacity

Quick turnaround resulting in better berth utilization

Negatives Large vessel requiring more time to berth /

depart PS type taking 2 hours from pilot to gangway is

set A / G / S taking 1 hour from pilot to gangway is set

Occupying more quay as using minimum 2 sets of bollards for head / stern lines

PS type occupying 500 meter quay (400m vessel + 2*50m)

A / G / S type occupying 410 meter quay (350m vessel + 2*30m)


Maersk Line PS-class vessel (11.000 TEU) compared to:A /G /S-class, Panamax D-class, WAFmax T-class Average horisontal travel distance from mid quay:

PS: 28m + 3m + 15m = 46m A / G / S: 21.5m + 3m + 15m = 39.5m Panamax: 16.5m + 3m + 15m = 34.5m WAFmax: 13.5m + 3m + 15m = 31.5m


Maersk Line PS-class vessel (11.000 TEU) compared to:A /G /S-class, Panamax D-class, WAFmax T-class Average vertical travel distance from quay level:

WAFmax: 11.5m + 5.7m = 17.2m Panamax: 17.0m + 5m = 22.0m A / G / S: 19.0m + 8.0m = 27.0m PS: 28.4m + 17.3m = 45.7m


Maersk Line PS-class vessel (11.000 TEU) compared to:A /G /S-class, Panamax D-class, WAFmax T-class

Modern cranes have following operating speeds: Trolley travel speed: 240 m/min or 4 m/s Hoisting / Lowering: Between 90 m/min & 180 m/min or average 2.5 m/s

Is this productivity loss a fact?

The answer is no, not as dramatic as it is shown The cranes work for long times in the same position The hatchcover / container ratio dramatically drops More chances to use already stowed containers to steady container

being loaded Vessel doesn’t move, heel or trim easy


Systems

Vessel configuration in systems Too wide - 22 rows where system only allowed for 20 Too many tiers under deck

Workqueues Very large bays containing several hundred containers causing

system problems if transferred in one queue Very large blocks difficult to compensate if needed

Processing time for EDI files and strain on system Deadlines should be reconsidered in view of the number of

moves the vessel has Bayplans


Systems - Bayplans become a challenge (A4)


This is why! (A4)


Ship to Shore Cranes- Lifting height

Lifting height Crane specific limitations Additional factors to consider when planning Not possible to use safety cages in all positions / with all cranes

Outreach

Outreach Increased boom lenght Increased cost Increased wheel load

Are 22 rows enough?


Hinge point of boom

Hinge point Will the raised boom touch the bridgewing? Can the cranes pass the bridge? If the vessel has to heel it takes time – a long time! Do we need a different crane design? The 45 degree booming is not enough
