International organizations have negative forecasts on the impact on foreign trade and consumption that will affect, in the medium and long term, the <strong>strategies of large shipping companies<\/strong> with respect to routes, scales and also the size of container ships.<\/p>\n<p>It is precisely the increase in the number of large mega ships that has made great strides in recent years. The record: the recent &#8220;HMM Algeciras&#8221; of <strong>23,964 TEUs<\/strong> and with 399.9 meters in length that operates the route between North Asia and Europe. This phenomenon is known as <strong>economies of scale<\/strong> and refers to the fact that, increasingly, larger ships and large capacity loading and unloading equipment are taking over the maritime transport and covering the major cargo routes. A dynamic that is analyzed by all logistics operators, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stocklogistic.com\/en\/\">Stock Logistic<\/a>, to know the <strong>characteristics of the markets<\/strong> and what are the future perspectives on which they will carry out their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stocklogistic.com\/en\/ocean-transport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">operations<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, from now on, these so-called economies of scale are also going to be conditioned by the <strong>situation of maritime transport of containers<\/strong>, the <strong>capacity of adaptation<\/strong> of ports and terminals, the <strong>inactive fleet or the environmental requirements<\/strong> of international organizations, which are increasingly rigorous. For example, the entry into force of IMO 2020 which began at the beginning of the year.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these factors, we cannot forget the current situation marked by the<strong> health and economic crisis<\/strong>. Some studies speak of the fact that the majority of shipping companies will end the year 2020 in the red and this is a situation that could extend to 2021 depending on the <strong>duration of the pandemic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h5>Concentration in the industry<\/h5>\n<p>Apart from the above issues, the <strong>maritime industry<\/strong> is also navigating towards another phenomenon: <strong>increasing concentration<\/strong>, which is growing among the main actors influencing the business. For example, <strong>large shipping companies<\/strong> are increasingly involved in the management of major port terminals &#8211; particularly in ports of general interest &#8211; and the <strong>internationalisation of operators<\/strong> is a growing phenomenon. Some experts predict that the historic shipping companies <strong>could become large global door-to-door<\/strong> operators by replacing the traditional port-to-port philosophy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The COVID-19 crisis will have its effects on the maritime industry and world trade.
