Maritime transport. What are the advantages?
The best price/volume ratio:
Compared to rail, road and air transport, sea transport costs are thus more affordable and particularly more economically viable for bulky loads.
Less maintenance costs:
The maintenance cost of sea transport is considerably less. When, similarly, compared to the maintenance costs involved in air, road and, or, rail transport. This is also one of the main reasons why shipping rates are not so high. That and the fact that in other words the overall cost of transport is divided over considerably more goods.
Important for Foreign Trade:
Oceans have long been connecting global trade markets. For instance, foreign trade is highly dependent on shipping.
Environmentally Friendly:
Ships have a minimal carbon footprint. They in turn consume less fuel as compared to aircraft. Consequently, they are environmentally friendly and large organisations and companies, with end customers, are increasingly aware of ecological issues and therefore prefer sea transport.
Safety:
Ships are capable of transporting hazardous materials and critical cargo. Most importantly with safety for the ship, the crew, the cargo and the environment. Firstly, the number of accidents or incidents with maritime freight transport is incomparably lower than with other modes of transport. Secondly, containers are also built to be sealed and locked during transport in addition for greater security.
