ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF DEPLOYING FOLDABLE CONTAINERS: REDUCING BUNKER AND CONTAINER MANAGEMENT COSTS IN A MULTI-PORT SHIPPING NETWORK
The effect of foldable containers on the costs of container fleet management in liner shipping networks. Maritime Economics & Logistics. 2012. Vol. 14. No. 4. P. 455-479. DOI: 10.1057/mel.2012.16. Shintani, K. & Konings, R. & Imai, A. Combinable containers: A container innovation to save container fleet and empty container repositioning costs.
have indicated that folding costs are approximately equivalent to unfolding costs. 1. Doudnikoff, M. & Lacoste, R. Effect of a speed reduction of containerships in response to higher energy costs in sulphur emission control areas.
However, this does not generate revenue and incurs container management costs (CMCs). Some container carriers may use foldable containers (FLDs), such as four-in-one designs, instead of standard containers (STDs), in order to minimize the costs associated with relocating empty containers.
Although there is uncertainty in the 2024 cost (which is discussed later), we use a single cost for 2024 for convenience as we apply these costs in our long-term planning models (applying the same costs in 2024 means that the 2024 solution will not change as we shift from a “high” to a “mid” to a “low” cost projection for storage).
