Comparative Study on Port Efficiency in the Bohai Rim Region

摘要

As an important hub of maritime transport, ports play an important role in the international trade. Bohai sea port is one of the largest ports in China, and the government and related departments pay the most attention to the development. At present, the ports around Bohai play an important role in the development of economy. This paper first introduces the research background of port efficiency research in the Bohai Rim region and the literature review of it at home and abroad. Secondly, it introduces the concepts of port cargo throughput, berth and DEA model, and analyzes the changes in cargo throughput and container throughput of ten major ports in 2014-2018. Thirdly, analyzes the efficiency of each port from an empirical perspective. Finally, based on the efficiency status in of each part, suggestions for improving port efficiency are proposed.
