Is the medium of transportation that we are familiar with
There is a hidden boss
boat
After thousands of years of development
The ship has become
"True Sister Lang" who has practiced eighteen martial arts
Not only can it be shipped
Rice noodles grain oil, seafood melon fruit
It can also be shipped
Planes, cars, trains, pipelines
even
Ships can also be shipped!
Let's take a look
grain
Grain is a common "eating (about) cargo" on board ships. In January 2021, three ships docked at Lianyungang Port, which launched the first imported grain "water-to-water" business. In addition to being transported directly into the cabin, grain can also be packaged and transported in containers.
Durian
Durian, cherry, banana, mango, lychee... Thinking about it makes me salivate about how to transport (chi). Fruits have high requirements for freshness and are generally packed in refrigerated containers for fresh transportation.
Large yellow croaker
Here we introduce you to a super powerful boat - breeding boat. "Guoxin No. 1" can be called "fishery breeding aircraft carrier", equipped with 15 breeding cabins, mainly selecting famous breeding fish species such as yellow croaker, Atlantic salmon, grouper, etc., with an annual output of 3700 tons of high-quality fish, which can realize the integration of catch, dormancy, grading, processing and packaging.
ore
When it comes to ore, we have to mention two terms: VLOC and ULOC. Bulk carriers with a load of more than 200,000 tons are usually used to transport ore sands, known as large ore ships - VLOC, Very Large Ore Carrier, and more than 300,000 tons are called ULOC, Ultra Large Ore Carrier.
oil
Oil tankers, also known as oil tankers. In a broad sense, it refers to ships that transport various types of oil in bulk, in addition to transporting oil, but also carrying oil products, various animal and vegetable oils, liquid natural gas and petroleum gas. Most of the so-called oil tankers refer to ships that transport crude oil. Ships that carry refined oil products are called oil product ships. The most obvious symbol of an oil tanker is the clustered pipeline in the middle of the deck. Similar to ore ships, large tankers can be divided into VLCC and ULCC.
gas
Ships specializing in transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) are generally referred to as liquefied natural gas carriers or LNG vessels. This kind of boat is also very recognizable, generally independent storage tank type and membrane type. The former is to place cylindrical, tank-shaped, spherical and other shaped storage tanks in the ship; The latter adopts a double-shell structure, and the inner shell is the bearing shell of the liquid cargo compartment. A little bit of a thing: a ship carrying LPG is called an LPG ship.
Cars, trains
Cars are generally loaded on ro-ro boats, and the car can be driven into the "belly" of the boat. A few days ago, COSCO SHIPPING's multi-purpose pulp ship stored the car into the frame of the foldable commodity truck and then hoisted it into the cabin.
Because the train is relatively long, the ship is generally loaded in sections, and the train from Zhanjiang in Guangdong to Haikou in Hainan is like this. A few days ago, the mainland exported 1 group of high-speed EMUs and 1 group of comprehensive inspection trains for the Yawan high-speed railway in Indonesia, which were loaded in sections at Qingdao Port and sent to Indonesia by sea.
boat
Semi-submersible vessels have an oversized platform deck that can be "loaded on board". On March 27 this year, the "New Yaohua" ship, which has two decks the size of a football field, was able to make nine engineering ship "small partners" walk together once in a "group". The 9 engineering vessels loaded this time include floating cranes, piling boats, tugboats, etc., with many types of ships and different sizes.
plane
On April 24 this year, eight large parts of the Airbus aircraft, including the nose, fuselage and horizontal tail of the "COSCO SHIPPING Sagittarius" container carrier, were picked up and unloaded at Tianjin Port, and transported by special trucks to the final assembly workshop the next day for assembly.
Wind power equipment
On July 24, COSCO SHIPPING's special heavy lifting vessel "Daziyun" loaded with seven sets of wind power equipment set sail smoothly from Taicang Port. Heavy cargo ships are transport ships that carry heavy goods and can rely on their own equipment to load and unload, and can carry heavy goods such as power generation equipment, chemical and refining equipment, drilling platforms, heat exchangers, atomic energy reactors, and locomotives.
cattle
Cows, live. On the afternoon of August 29, 2019, the "Galloway Express" steamship full of 1812 Australian cattle slowly approached Berth 2 in the harbor area of Zhoushan Port Town, Ningbo. On July 24 this year, the China-Australia Terminal in the Jintang Port Area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port completed the loading and unloading of 6,975 Uruguayan imported breeding cattle.
pipeline
On December 30, 2020, at the general cargo terminal of Qinhuangdao Port, the "Hualian" ship completed the loading operation and sailed to Nigeria with a full load of 13,227 tons of steel pipes and 10,300 tons of malt. The steel pipes weigh 5.1 to 7.1 tons and are 7.1 to 14.2 meters long and have been put into local oil pipeline construction projects.
