Sea transportation

Sea transportation is considered the best method of transporting goods to countries connected to open waters. This method has attracted the attention of many traders due to its low cost and high safety. Temperature-sensitive cargoes with refrigerated containers, bulk cargoes such as food and industrial machinery are transported using this method. Sea transportation is also a suitable option for importing and exporting heavy and bulky cargoes; because these goods are not easily transported by plane or land methods or they involve a huge cost.
Maritime transport is one of the most important methods of international transportation. It refers to any transfer of goods and passengers by sea and by means of various types of maritime transport, including small or giant ships and barges.

International maritime transportation is the oldest method that humans have used to communicate with other countries and transport goods.

More affordable costs, greater security, the ability to carry heavy loads, and numerous other reasons have led to more than 90 percent of goods being transported by water today.

Maritime transportation has long been of great importance in international trade.

Maritime transportation, including passenger transportation by sea as well as the transportation of goods and shipments, has been ongoing for a long time in various parts of the world.

As a result, it is natural that through a process of trial and error over nearly a hundred years, its basic principles and engineering have been formed in a completely efficient manner.

Throughout all these steps, there are basic and uniform principles that not only encourage the country of origin to allow the shipment to leave the country, but also ensure the safe and sound transportation of the shipment and ultimately receive permission to enter the territory of the destination country.
What is container shipping?
Container shipping is a method of maritime transportation. In this method, container ships are used to transport cargo. Container ships are large ships that can transport dry cargo in large quantities. Unlike conventional ships, these ships are standardized in size and cargo carrying capacity and transport cargo with the greatest reliability.

Container shipping refers to the same method; you load your cargo in bulk into shipping containers and ship it to its destination. Sometimes, some containers are shared, which reduces costs.
What is a shipping container?
Containers are large, sturdy metal boxes that hold cargo or bulk goods. They keep the cargo secure and prevent it from getting tangled. Shipping containers make it easier to move cargo over long distances and increase safety. This reduces the risk of damage or loss of cargo.
The importance of container transportation
Container shipping is carried out by container ships. These ships, and this method of transportation in general, have a great impact on global trade and the global economy, because before the beginning of the 20th century, maritime transport was usually carried out by barrels, sacks and non-standard ships, which were not really safe and the safety of the cargo could not be guaranteed until it reached its destination. These methods of transportation were also very expensive and only large and wealthy companies could do business on a global scale.
But with the development of transportation methods and the introduction of container shipping, costs decreased and cargo security increased. In this way, more people were able to enter the transportation field, which even created jobs. Therefore, container shipping not only reduces costs and increases cargo safety, but also affects the trade and economy of countries.
Sea transportation of goods using cross-stuffing method
Cross-stuffing is the transfer of goods from one ship to another and continuing the journey to the destination. This method is used during sanctions and in small ports. An important point about cross-stuffing ships is that one of the ships must have a crane to unload the goods. For this reason, sometimes there are dangers during transportation that threaten the health of the goods. Generally, in countries like Iran that are under sanctions, they use this method, especially for importing their goods, depending on specific conditions.
Maritime transportation of goods by transshipment
Transshipment means transporting goods to an intermediate port. This method of transportation is used if it is not possible to load directly from the port of origin to the destination. For example, a ship’s goods dock at Jebel Ali Port and are transferred to another ship or another plane and are sent to the final destination, such as Turkey.

What is ship rental and ship chartering?
Ship chartering is a popular way to transport goods around the world. It is also used by militaries and governments to transport personnel and equipment. Ship chartering is typically a complex process, as there are a number of factors that need to be considered before a ship charter can be finalized. A ship charter is a contract in which a ship owner agrees to lease their ship to a ship charterer to carry cargo from one port to another. The two parties involved in this process are the ship owner (the legal entity registered as the owner of the ship) and the ship charterer (the company that has chartered the ship to carry its goods), and a contract specifies all the terms, obligations, and details of how this lease is created. Sometimes a ship charterer may also be a party that does not have cargo but rents the ship from the ship owner for a predetermined period of time. This person then trades the ship for cargo at a profit above the charter rate or even re-rents the ship to other ship charterers, in a growing market.
LNG ships
One of the standard methods of transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) is a substance made from condensed natural gas and can only be transported by special ships. Important structural features of an LNG ship include a double-walled hull and a safety design that meets industry standards. After discharge, the LNG will be converted back into a liquid.
