Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest a major strategy to become effective for each port in Northeast Asia by analyzing the relative efficiency of each port to determine the current level of efficiency, efficient harbors plan. Individual port of the major 16 ports in Northeast Asia was analysed targeting efficiency and relative efficiency. In this study, DEA technique was used. Of the DEA model, CCR (constant returns to scale) models and BCC (variable return to scale) model was applied to analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of the port. Then the efficiency measured through CCR model is again compared with the efficiency measured by the BCC model. In this way, the empirical analysis includes the input factors of the operating ports such as the number of berths, wharf, depth, total area of the pier, C / C numbers and output elements includes the container throughput. The results of the study show that most of the ports in China is efficient whereas those in Korea and Japan are relatively inefficient. There are some pairs of ports which has the similar input factors, like Busan port and Shanghai port, Lianyungang port and Incheon port, Dalian port and Gwangyang port, but the container throughput of them has a huge difference.

본 연구의 목적은 동북아시아 주요 컨테이너항만간의 상대적 효율성을 분석함으로써, 각 항만의 현재 효율성 수준을 파악하고, 효율적 항만이 되기 위한 주요 전략수립 방안을 제시하고자 하는 것이다, 동북아시아 지역의 주요 16개 항만을 대상으로 개별항만 효율성 및 상대적 효율성을 분석하였으며, DEA기법을 사용했다. DEA모형 중 규모수익불변모형인 CCR모형과 규모수익가변모형인 BCC모형을 통해 항만 효율성을 분석하며, 또한 CCR모형에 의해 평가된 효율성을 BCC모형에 의해 평가된 효율성으로 나눈 비율인 규모의 효율성 측면에서도 효율성을 분석하였다. 이러한 방법의 실증분석을 시행함에 있어서 투입요소로는 선석 수, 안벽 길이, 수심, 부두 총면적, C/C 대수를 이용하고, 산출요소로는 컨테이너 물동량을 이용했다. 연구 결과, 중국의 경우, 대부분의 항만이 효율적으로 나타난 반면, 한국과 일본의 경우 대체적으로 비효율적인 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 부산항과 상해항, 롄윈강항과 인천항, 다롄항과 광양항이 투입요소가 유사하지만 산출요소인 컨테이너 물동량은 큰 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
