Abstract
This study is aimed to contribute in establishing new port policy by research and analysis in design of global port logistics network in the East Asia region. In order to build such port logistics network, 21 ports located in East Asia among the world's 50th largest ports were selected in this study. Furthermore, the amount of container cargo and the ports of call were analyzed to categorize the subject ports in East Asia. Finally, this study tries to find economic network between the base port in East Asia, EU or North America and feeder ports in terms of logistics cost. As a result, Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Busan ports were found as the representative ports in the East Asia that may connect North America and Europe with the minimum logistics expenses. Therefore, to maintain the stable cargo volume in ports, Korea should promote not only the overseas terminal operation which links to the Singapore, Hong Kong, and Shanghai ports, but also establish the global port logistic network connecting the Busan port.
본 연구의 목적은 동아시아 지역을 중심으로 글로벌 항만 물류네트워크를 구축하여 우리나라의 새로운 항만정책을 제안하는 것에 있다. 이러한 항만 물류네트워크의 구축을 위해 세계 50위 항만 중 21개의 항만을 중심으로, 컨테이너 화물량과 기항지를 분석하여 EU, 북미를 연결시 최소 물류비용인 동아시아 지역의 4개의 대표항만을 추출하였다. 그 결과 동아시아에서는 싱가포르, 홍콩, 상하이, 부산항이 추출되었다. 따라서, 우리나라는 싱가포르, 홍콩, 상하이항에 해외 터미널을 운영하고 부산항과 연계하는 글로벌 항만 물류네트워크를 구축하여 안정적인 화물을 확보해야 한다.
