ASIA GREEN PORT SHIPPING CONFERENCE MUMBAI INDIA 2-3 OCTOBER 2014

PORT ECONOMY

India’s economy has the potential to be the fastest growing of the BRIC countries over the next half century. It is predicted that the Indian economy will overtake Italy in 2015, France in 2020, Germany in 2023 and Japan by 2032, in terms of gross size.

With the vast majority of India’s international trade moving by sea (90% by volume and 70% by value), development of the country’s ports will be critical. The global average of containerisation is 60-70%; India’s rate is currently only around 25%, therefore highlighting that the demand for new container ports and inland transport infrastructure is forecast to be particularly strong.

The conference will focus on the sustainable development of ports and terminals but will also look at the need for the infrastructure to keep pace with the development of ports together with investment and finance options and initiatives.

Einstein said: "Imagination is more important than knowledge." Imagine this: Forget bunker fuel, electric ships are now possible that operate on nothing but energy harvested directly from nature, shown here with 40kW wind turbines. The total energy harvesting capacity of this design is around 176kW (235hp), giving an Energy Harvested to Displacement ratio (EH/D) of 3.52kW/ton (4.72hp/ton). Larger versions of this format could be the emission free cargo ships of the future. The hull is 50m (163ft) hull on the waterline, length OAL is 56M (183ft). The cost of diesel fuel to operate this ship continuously for a year is approximately: .29gals/hp x 117 x 24 x 365 = $297,226.80 (£183,393.99) In ten years that would be $2.97M (£1.83M). Fuel for thought! BMS Ltd are looking for international partners to develop this technology. Contact us to explore the possibilities.
