A Study of Container Terminal Planning Nam-Kyu Park Professor Tongmyong University Department of Logistics Management Branislav Dragović Associate Professor University of Montenegro Maritime Faculty A container port must be planned to satisfy prompt accommodation of ships with minimum waiting time in port, and with maximum use of berth facilities. Somewhere between these opposing objectives each container port must reach a compromise, the number of berths which will achieve the most economical transfer of cargo between ships and shore. Computational experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the developed models using real data collected from the Korean container terminals. The effects of various practical considerations on the performance of the suggested planning process are tested numerically and by using a simulation study. Keywords: container terminal, computer simulation, optimization models, combination method. 1. INTRODUCTION In the development of container transport, container terminals were concerned to be, for some time, a discontinuity, i.e. a bottleneck, as they were not following the development of shipping. The development of new container ships of large capacities, modern technologies, and the introduction of container port automatic appliances at port terminals through their specialization are considered to be the basic features of modern container transport trends. The crucial terminal management problem is to optimize…
