The policy has improved the speed of port equipment growth

In the past two years, the port equipment market will usher in a new round of growth as the country attaches importance to river water transport and coastal ports.

In January 2011, the “Opinions of the State Council on Accelerating the Development of Inland River Water Transportation along the Yangtze River” was issued, and the development of inland water transport has been promoted as a national strategy. In March 2011, the Ministry of Transport issued the "Implementation Opinions on Implementing the State Council's Opinions on the Development of the Inland Rivers and Water Transportation on the Yangtze River," and proposed that by 2015, efforts will be made to achieve higher mileage standards for inland rivers than at the end of the "11th Five-Year Plan." With an increase of 3,000 kilometers, the port throughput capacity will increase by 1.3 billion tons, and the average tonnage of ships will increase from 450 tons at the end of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period to 800 tons, while the unit transportation cost will be reduced by 10% from 2010. It is estimated that during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, the funds invested in the construction of inland waterways throughout the country will reach 200 billion yuan, which is twice the period of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, with the central government’s investment accounting for 45 billion yuan, which is 2.7 during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period. Times, the inland water industry will usher in a golden period of development.

On May 26, 2011, the Ministry of Transport of the Ministry of Transport issued the “Twelfth Five-year Development Plan for Transportation” and proposed that during the “12th Five-Year Period”, it is necessary to continue to advance the orderly construction of major freight transport system wharfs, and to strengthen waterways and breakwaters. Construction of public infrastructure such as public anchorages, optimizing the structure and layout of coastal ports, promoting the adjustment of the port structure, focusing on the development of port functions, improving the port’s support capabilities and service levels, forming a rational layout, strong guarantees, efficient services, safety and environmental protection, and advanced management With the modern port system, the number of deep-water berths in the coastal ports reached 2,214, and the capacity adaptability (port throughput capacity/actual completion throughput) reached 1.1.

In terms of inland river water transport, we conscientiously implemented the “Opinions of the State Council on Accelerating the Development of Inland River Water Transportation in the Yangtze River and Other Areas”, implemented the Yangtze River Route Waterway System, accelerated the construction of inland waterways with a high-grade fairway as the focal point, and accelerated the scale of inland river ports and the construction of specialized harbor areas. We will promote the standardization of inland rivers and strengthen the management and maintenance of waterways. The specific objectives are: The navigation conditions for inland waterways have been significantly improved. 70% of the 19,000-kilometer high-grade channels of “two lines, one vertical line, two networks and eighteen lines” have reached the planning standard, and the high-grade channel mileage has reached 13,000 kilometers. Inland river water transport has developed rapidly. , transport advantages to further play.

The Port Equipment Industry Research Group stated that 90% of global trade volume is achieved through maritime transport. Therefore, the growth of global economy and trade volume has become the most important factor in promoting port development and cargo handling throughput. At present, the global container cranes have a total capacity of approximately 13,000 units, including approximately 4,000 quay-bank cranes and approximately 8,000 field bridges. The annual renewed demand is approximately 200, 400 units. As the country attaches importance to river water transport and coastal ports, and the continuous increase of port throughput, the port equipment market will usher in a new round of growth.
