What is Sea Transportation?
Maritime transport is the transportation of goods or passengers by sea via ships. It plays an important role both worldwide and in Turkey. This method, especially preferred by companies that need to transport large quantities of goods, is ideal for transporting cargo over long distances at lower costs. Thanks to Turkey’s strategic location and the Straits, maritime transport plays a major role in the country’s domestic and foreign trade.
Reasons Why Sea Transportation Is Preferred
Maritime transport is more economical than other types of transport because it has the capacity to carry large quantities of industrial raw materials at once. It is also one of the safest methods of international transport; because border crossing problems encountered in methods such as road and air transportation between countries are not experienced in maritime transport.
This method also has a positive effect on costs with its high carrying capacity and low energy consumption. Maritime transport is seven times cheaper than road transport and three and a half times cheaper than rail transport with its variable costs. Thanks to advanced loading and unloading techniques, transportation processes are carried out quite quickly.
