Bimco released the results of its first-ever shipowner survey on the efficiency of dry bulk terminals around the world.
The terminal vetting report was based on 443 voluntary surveys that were submitted by shipowners after a port call. Overall, Bimco received results that were based on port calls of some 94 ships across 231 terminals.
Each port was scored on a weighted system, which ranked loading and unloading the most followed by mooring and berth arrangements and information exchange.
