The main advantage of sea-river shipping is its
unique market range. Sea-river vessels can
connect the hinterland with overseas destinations
without the need for intermediate transhipment.
This results in lower transport costs and a
reduced risk of damage caused by additional
handling.
Minimum total load for transportation is about a
1,000 tons. However, since separate holds enable
sea-river vessels to carry various types of cargo at
the same time, there is tremendous flexibility in
how the total can be made up. There is also the
added benefit of floating stock - reducing the
need for storage in the company's silo or
warehouse. And finally, apart from being cheaper,
transportation by water is also environmentally
friendly. ➔

Sea-river shipping in Europe
The European sea-river fleet (Eastern Europe not
included) comprises about 400 vessels at an
average deadweight capacity of 2,000 dwt.
The Dutch fleet, currently about 80 vessels, is
steadily growing. ➔

This brochure contains an
overview of sea-river shipping
options within Europe.
Although there are other
shipping options apart from the
canals and rivers indicated,
these are only navigable by a
small number of special seariver vessels.
The Humber in England and the
Trollhattan canal in Sweden are
also navigable, either fulllength or in part, by conventional coaster. So is the Nene
river and a few ports close to
its estuary. Although Russia has
many rivers allowing navigation
by sea-river vessels, this is at
present restricted to vessels
under the Russian flag.
With its abundance of waterways, our country the
Netherlands has a number of
rivers and canals such as the
Rhine, Maas and IJssel rivers
and the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal,
all of which are accessible to
sea-river vessels. However, the
existence of navigable waterways is not enough in itself:
loading and unloading
terminals are also required.
For this reason, the
development of so-called ROCs
(Dutch for Regional
Transhipment Centres) is
important. Already there are
ROCs in Kampen, Heijen, Stein
and Oss, mainly for container
loading and unloading
purposes, but also for handling
sea-river vessels with
conventional loads. ➔
Type of load
Sea-river vessels carry mainly
bulk loads such as coal, grain,
raw building materials and
fertilizer. They also carry neobulk loads such as steel, steel
products, sawn timber and
paper, and are used for
container transportation.
The two major users of seariver shipping are the German
steel industry, which is
concentrated in the Ruhr area,
and the Swedish and Finnish
timber industries. These regions
of origin are determining the
predominant transport pattern
in this market. Steel products
flow downstream on the Rhine,
while Scandinavian timber and
paper products go upstream,
both destined for all parts of
Europe. Transportation of bulk
products such as grain and ore,
in the form of return loads from
the Ruhr area and to Scandinavia, is also considerable. ➔
Although sea-river transport
has been a forgotten market
segment for some time, we
have recently been witnessing
renewed and considerable
investment in this area, with
various (Dutch) shipping
companies placing orders for
new sea-river ships. New
technology has
resulted in increased
bridge clearance
and lower draught
developments,
which have made a
growing number of
European inland destinations
more easily accessible.
Trends in shipbuilding
often lead to bigger
vessels, but this
would be counterproductive for this
type of coastal
shipping as increased
size would almost certainly
result in a decrease in shipping
reach. The new generation of
sea-river vessels is also smaller
by tonnage. An example of a
new type of sea-river vessel is
printed on the back, showing a
vessel measuring 80 metres in
length, 6.3 metres in height and
1,700 dwt in tonnage, all at
just 3.4 metres draught.
Moreover, its box-shaped hold
makes it suitable for all types
of load, including containers. ➔
