Winter 2013 / 2014

Can we clean up the global shipping industry and maybe even improve its efficiency?

The Offshore Cargo Management Concept restructures the international container shipping industry as necessary consequence of todays deficits and combines current research projects and technologies with the goal of ecological sensitivity.

Why are even the newest, biggest containerships still being pulled in position and moored by ropes? This high-tech versus low-tech discrepancy caught my attention and started a long journey through the international shipping industry. Fortunately one of the biggest harbours in the world (at that time) was hamburg which enabled me to experience and analyse structures and processes first hand.

From the discovery to the solution - in pictures. Enjoy!
