어업용 면세유류의 공급기준량 산출 방법 개선에 관한 연구

Abstract

In Korea, tax-exempted fuel is supplied to fishing vessels according to the estimation by national federation of fisheries cooperatives. But, the current real usage is far short of the estimation and standard amount suggested by the policy making authority. The purpose of this study is, therefore, to determine a new standard amount of supply that fits the real usages. We classify each fishing industry into two groups of small and large ships if the fuel usage is affected by the size of vessel, and then determine the different supply limits for the two groups. In order to determine the supply limit, we performed a cluster analysis in identifying 5% percentile of the yearly working hour of vessels and calculate the fuel consumption associated with the working hour. Then, we checked if fuel shortage may occur when applying the new supply limit. The results show that fuel usage ratio can be improved from about 20% to about 40% with the new supply limit, which means that newly proposed guideline can be a more realistic and pragmatic.
