Sub-section Barge Pushing Fleet Container Transport In The Yangtze River,

With the deepening development of western regions, the economy of the Yangtze River valley is developed at full speed, the transporting amount of the container improves by a wide margin , have put forward higher demand to transport capacity and transportation efficiency. Because the present adoption motor vessel transportation dominate the containerized transport along the Yangtze River, the ones that costs of and service level is all difficult to meet containerized transport market's increasing needs, can't give play to water way transportation which advantage on being economy and great capacity , receive the serious challenges from the railway and highway transportation day by day. The water way carriers demand the new transportation way to change the present backward situation urgently.Integrated barge transportation is the most advance manner on waterway transportation, through the reasonable type and connection gear make whole fleet combine intact an organic whole it, thus improved the performance of the traditional barge, has improved transportation efficiency and labor productivity greatly. With the development of the channel improvement project of the Yangtze River, it has already ripe to use the opportunity of the integrated barge in the Yangtze River valley. The advanced transportation manner must be compatible with transportation management and auxiliary facility. The application and popularization of the integrated barge involve shipping, port, management, factory, channel, etc., thus induce a series of reformation at transport production , management and administration. However, restricted by the management level, the large-scale integrated barge transportation of our country still fails to give full play to benefit at present, application technology awaits researching and developing further. And containerized transport, because containerized transport expect much to management and administration and systematic cooperate, integrated barge is more less apply and the organization mode are mostly duplicating bulk transportation. Management level has been the bottleneck, which restrained integrated barge from being utilized. So I try to push away the contradict between the amount of container transportation and total transportation capacity at YangtzeRiver, reduce the containerized transport cost by establishing the systematized container barge transportation system.From the transporting amount of container in the Yangtze River and transportation capacity and waterway shipping external environment condition, the dissertation analysis the feasibility of integrated barge apply at Yangtze River container transport and situation of application; According to the enterprise's present transportation organization, base on the analyzing and evaluating to present transportation organization, establishing the suitable organization mode which meet the requirement of containerized integrated barge transportation. Remarkably, according to the characteristics of integrated barge containerized transport the dissertation quote "tug boat power mutually rent agreement" and " flexible liner transport " concept make water way carrier have flexibility of highway transportation, compare to the current waterway container transportation system it is a novel thinking.The dissertation is divided into three parts: First part is the description about integrated barge and the environment that suitable, including chapter one and chapter two. Chapter three is the second part; discuss the feasibility that integrated barge use in the Yangtze River containerized transport. Through analysis, regarding that the Yangtze River is the most suitable river to complement large scale integrated barge containerized transportation in the world. The third part Include four and five chapter, by analyzing transportation organization and set up corresponding mathematics model, described the operation way of the container barge transportation system.
