Risk of pilferage, breakage, or deterioration
High insurance costs for long in-transit period
Heavy or expensive packaging required for surface transportation
Need for special handling or care
Importance of Air Transport

Transport Mode: Road
Characteristics of road freightRequire flexibility and quick response to the demand
Serve door-to-door services without no transhipment (uses of RoRo vessels
or Ferries for overseas transport possible)
Negative impact of road transport
Contribution to traffic jam
Large CO2-Footprint when comparing to other modes of transport
Often mis-exploitation / too much pressure on the truck drivers

Transport Mode: Road
Road Train ConceptTrucking concept for remote areas to move freight more efficiently (practiced in
Argentina, USA, Canada, Mexico and Australia)
Consists of conventional tractor unit pulling more than two units of trailers or semi-
trailer

Transport Mode: Road
Road transport and Cross-DockingCommon practice in the logistics process for efficient distribution of good via road
transport
Loading of goods is done directly into outbound trucks or trailers with less or no
storage in between.
Mostly the goods are already sorted for the loading with the same or similar
destination.
10Dr. Phanthian Zuesongdham
Advantages Disadvantages
Require good network of partners for start up
Need for adequate transport fleet to operate
Need for a computerised logistics system forwell-managed processes and therefore
investment intensive
Additional freight handling can lead to product
damage
Streamline supply chain from point of origin to
point of sale
Reduce handling, operating and storage costsof inventory
Products get to the distributor and
consequently to the customer faster
Reduces, or eliminates warehousing costs for
retailers

Tranport Mode: Rail
Characteristics of rail transportHigh level of safety and efficiency of energy consumption
Large capacity for hinterland transport resulting in moderate prices
comparing to road transport for the same distance
Less land occupation than road transportWeakness of rail transport
Highly depends on the railway infrastructure with intensive maintenance
Less flexible than road transport
Infrastructure failures can disrupt freight revenue operation

Transport Mode: Rail
Block Train Concept
Scheduled cargo rail connections a
serving specific route from a
consolidation center (e.g. container
terminal) to a distribution center / point
Example of Block Train Operator: Polzug
Polzug offers regular services between
Rotterdam, Bremen, Hamburg and
Poland. Transhipment in Poland to be
further distributed to Baltic States,
Russia, Ukraine and Caucasus.

Transport Mode: Rail
RailNetEurope (RNE)
Association set up in January 2004 by a
majority of European rail infrastructure
managers to enable fast, easy access
to European rail, as well as to increase
the quality and efficiency of international
rail traffic.Currently with 38 members in the
network covering over 230,000 Km
Daily process and services:
European wide timetabling
Common marketing and sale approachCooperation in operations
Train information exchanges in real time
cross borders
After-sale service (e.g. reporting)

Tranport Mode: Pipeline
Characteristics of pipeline transport
Progressive and economically advantageous mode of transport
Flexible and less or no freight losses in transit
Complete mechanisation and automation of loading and unloading operation as well
as recovery of packaging
Low cost per unit e.g. the costs of pipeline transportation are one-third of those forrailroad transport.
Typical commodity of pipeline freight
Liquids e.g. oil, chemical liquids, beer
GasCoal (with water as facilitator)

Tranport Mode: Pipeline and its funcition
Gathering pipeline
Group of smaller interconnected pipelines from complex networks
E.g. bringing up crude oil or natural gas from nearby plants or platforms
Typically not long and not large pipelines
Transportation pipeline
Mainly long and large diameter pipeline used to move products between cities,
countries or even intercontinent.
Typically installed with several compressure stations in gas lines or pump stations for
crude or multiproduct pipelines
Distr ibution pipeline (or feeder pipeline)
Consisting of several interconnected pipelines with small diameters to deliver the
product to final consumers
Also including pipeline at terminals for distributing products to tanks and storage
facilities

Classification of waterbourne transport
Overseas
Inland Waterway
Characterist ics of waterbourne transport
Largest vehicle for freight transportEconomy of Scale in terms of costs per unit
of goods
Ability to transport large volume
Typical commodity
Containerised cargo
General cargo
Bulk (solid, liquid)
Project / Heavy-lift cargo

Tranport Mode: Sea Transport
Summary from Review of Maritime Transport 2012 by UNCTAD
Seabourne trade reached 8.7 Billion Tons
World fleet grew by 37 percents in four years
However, freight rates reported as unprofitable for carriers
Container port throughput increased by 5.9 per cent
Growing concerns regarding freight transport Green Shipping, adoption of
Environmental Shipping Index (ESI)

Tranport Mode: Inland Waterway
Characteristics of Inland Waterway
Competitive alternative to road and rail transport due to lower operational costs
Environmental friendly in term of energy consumption and emission of gas and noise
High degree of safety, in particular for dangerous cargo
Enabling decongestion of the overloaded road network
Very low external costs e.g. accidents, congestion, noise emission, air pollution and
other environmental impact.
High payloads, suitable for all kinds of massive goods, liquids and dry bulks
However, inland waterway is still not yet very popular mode of transport because
Relatively low network forming capacity. Mostly the network does not follow the cargoflow.
Ship types on the market is built specially for specific cargo, therefore not flexible.

Multimodal Transport
Also called Intermodal Transport, Sychromodal Transport, Co-Modality
Principle:
Defined as the movement of goods in one and the same load unit or road vehicle,
which uses successively two or more modes of transport, without moving the good
themselves when changing modes (UNECE)
Use of standard load units
With reduced cargo handling, the freight security can be improved. Damages and
losses can be reduced. Freight can be transported faster because of less handling
time.
Best possibility for utilising resources
Enabling optimised carbon footprint of a freight transport

Increasing needs in Multimodal Transport
Multimodal transport is one key instrument in managing supply chain
Common drivers in supply chain: time, reliablity and flexibility
Role of transport in the supply chain is crucial.
Increasing requirements to transport such as security and safety to prevent damage or
value losses
Mutimodal transport can deliver following strengths which are need in the logistics
solutions:
The scale of operation can be flexible to demand because of efficiency in transport
24/7-Operation of transport services offered in the market
Use of terminals in the multimodal chain for (de)consolidation to optimise buffer in
transport chain
Use of intermodal load units for (un)loading to best fit the clients need
