Year: 2021 Language: english Author: HPA Genre: Guide Publisher: HPA Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 82 Description: Welcome to the port of Hamburg! Stretching across an area of 87 sq. km, it is one of the largest ports in the world. Our principal responsibility is to ensure the safe passage of every ship both in the port of Hamburg and on its approach channels, and we continuously strive to improve our services. In collaboration with my staff at the Harbour Master’s Division of the Hamburg Port Authority and in co-operation with many other parties involved such as the pilots’ associations, the water police, the port-operating businesses and the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration, I - as Hamburg’s Chief Harbour Master - make every effort to ensure that the master of every ship calling at the port of Hamburg enjoys his stay at the port, offering not only safe and secure port operations but also speedy cargo handling services. The growing globalisation of the world economy caused world trade and international transport volumes to rise, which in turn resulted in increasingly frequented navigable waterways, harbour entrances and port facilities. The port of Hamburg is extremely busy. Apart from seagoing vessels, inland waterway crafts, port ships, traditional ships and sport boats use its waters as well, which means that a multitude of different data collection, control and monitoring tasks must be performed around the clock to keep up with constantly changing traffic conditions. Ships come and go, load and discharge, take on supplies and shift. To ensure that traffic runs smoothly, all movements must be captured and monitored accurately. This is the responsibility of the Harbour Master’s Division of the Hamburg Port Authority.
