International shippingthe role of sea transport in the global economy /[electronic resource] :by Ralf Witthohn. - Wiesbaden :Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden :2023. - lxxiii, 758 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Transport by sea -- Work at sea -- Recreation, travel and rescue at sea.

Based on thoroughly researched texts and rare photos this book describes the actual developments of international shipping and all the facets connected to overseas good flows. Main source for the deep reaching insight into the maritime industry are authentic reports carried out at the focusses of the shipping scene. By explaining the design und purpose of nowadays ship types, the different ways of cargo handling as well as the activities of shipowners and operators is painted a representative and rich-illustrated picture of the actual maritime scene. The reader learns how tricky it is to transport gas turbines from their Berlin production site to a Turkish power plant, how to deliver converter platforms to offshore wind farms or to ship natural gas cargoes from Qatar to Japan. The deployment of emergency tugs, rescue and hospital ships are just as much a topic as the supposed sunny sides of shipping on luxury liners and mega yachts. By precise descriptions, expressive photos and technical drawings the design solutions found by naval architects are presented, as well as the ships' routes are traced and severe accidents examined. The contents Transport by sea - Work at sea - Recreation, travel and rescue at sea. The target groups - Employees in the general economy - Employees in the shipping industry, seafarers, port employees, shipbuilders - Shipping companies, authorities, classification societies - Interested laypersons The author Ralf Witthohn has become one of the leading experts on shipbuilding, shipping and ports in the past decades after working in project planning, design and construction of ships as well as through the publication of books and numerous articles in international maritime journals.
