지속가능한 해상운송을 위한 항만시설 경쟁력 수준 평가체계 구축

Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to understand the current status and derive improvement points by evaluating the competitiveness of Korean port infrastructure. At present, various shipping-port-logistics related evaluation systems around the world are either quantitative or qualitative rather than comprehensive evaluation. However, the result of evaluation for the shipping-port-logistics sector in Korea on a global level is undervalued and this is different from the real situation. Composition/Logic: This study consists of four chapters. Chapter 2 attempts to derive implications through a literature review on ports and analysis of domestic and foreign case studies of shipping port logistics-related indices. Chapter 3 introduces the development process of the evaluation system(index) and evaluation method, and presents the evaluation results of the pilot project that conducted the port in Korea. Findings: As a result of evaluating the 30 trade ports in Korea, it was found that Korea's ports are generally safe and digitally secured, while improving facilities and improving operational efficiency are needed to secure on schedule time. In particular, it should be considered that it is urgent to make a large investment toward developing eco-friendly facilities. Originality/Value: In this study, it was meaningful to develop an index capable of such comprehensive evaluation, and through the pilot project, the competitiveness level of facilities in each port of Korea was identified. This study could be used as the initial resource for the prioritization of investment and development to enhance the competitiveness of Korean trade ports in the future. Furthermore, in the long term, it would be expanded to the international index through continuous revision and supplementation.
