What boats do the crew like to run? Container bulk tanker cruise ship

I once made a comparative analysis of container VS bulk cargo VS tanker VS cruise ship. At that time, my understanding was basically literal. Although I wanted to run an oil tanker, I failed in all kinds of interviews and couldn't go to the company I wanted to go to. For various reasons, I am doing it on a container ship now. This shipowner selection is actually like a man chasing a woman. The person you love the most doesn't love you. The person who loves you the most is not the person you love, but the person who finally walks into the marriage hall. The same is true for job hunting. That's why it's called double election. You must get what you want.

The following are the analysis of the three types of ships that our crew runs the most. Let's discuss them.

Container ship:

1.？ Fast-paced, running at 18 ~ 19, frequency of berthing, three to five days berthing, normal.

2.？ The general development trend is that the loading and unloading operation is fast, and it is normal to stop around 10 hour. Good economic benefits, in line with the requirements of modern express delivery, relatively more ships, relatively fast promotion, there is a gap in positions.

3.？ Everything that can be packed in boxes and cans can be transported in containers. Our bow is full of dangerous chemicals, and the endurance of a voyage has stored more than 4000 tons of heavy oil, which adds up to no less than the transportation volume of small tankers, effectively refuting the theory of tanker radiation. Our ship is C4250, which also runs in the short and medium term. Considering the situation of 10,000 TEU containers, I still hate getting on the tanker, but it is impossible to turn the tanker from scratch.

4.？ Large container ships and big-name shipowners basically run mainstream routes, relying on big docks and new docks, but they are far from the urban area. As soon as they dock, four or five cranes will work and load and unload at the same time, which is not good for the engine room for more than ten hours. There are fewer opportunities to get off the ground and more time to work hard, which is good for the deck. The leisurely cargo-watching class can be on duty flexibly, and a lot of work in the engine room can only be done when the car is finished. After docking, you can't return to the ship until the agent has gone through the formalities.

5.？ Small containers, small and medium-sized shipowners and main docks can't compete with big-name shipowners' big ships, so they basically run feeder lines. Most of them dock at the small docks of the old docks, close to the urban areas, and all run in the short and medium term. After berthing, they will have crane operations and sometimes they may have to queue up. Although there are few loading and unloading boxes, it can also be inked for 20 ~ 25 hours. The so-called small mechanical equipment is also small, and the engine room is easy to work.

6. The ship is large, the safety factor is high, the stability is good, the machine parts are large and heavy, the engine room space is large, and the work is difficult.

Small boat, small wind and wave resistance coefficient, small and light machine parts, small engine room space and convenient work.

As far as salary is concerned, there is not much difference in the same position. The big ship is demanding and it is difficult to pass the interview. Most engineers tend to choose a big ship, and running a big ship has face. How to say that a ship running 10 thousand TEUs will be more heroic than a ship running 1000 TEUs. It's easy to jump from a big boat to a small boat, and it's easy to do it. It is difficult for a man who runs a small boat to jump into a big boat. All he does is to be stopped.

7.？ A container is like a bus. When to arrive at which port is already very clear, and the liner is reserved. Bulk goods are like a private van. Wherever the goods arrive, they pick up the goods and keep running. There are many uncertainties and unknown factors, and the route and schedule change rapidly.

I have a deep understanding, because I drive a container ship. )

Bulk carrier:

1. The biggest advantage of bulk carriers is that the port berthing time is very long, ranging from 4 to 5 days to more than half a month. Its loading and unloading operation is slow, and waiting for goods will take a lot of time. Ordinary crew members especially like to run bulk cargo, while senior crew members have different tendencies. For bulk carriers, the engine room is relatively comfortable and the deck is relatively tired. Container ship, the engine room is very tired, and the deck is relatively comfortable. Being able to go to the fields and have time to go out for a walk is the outstanding performance of this feature.

2. Articles transported in bulk, such as wood, grain, cement, fertilizer, powder, ore, coal, etc. Loading and unloading grain on the bulk carrier opposite our ship. Dust is flying all over the sky, the deck is miserable, and the cabin is not much better. I still want to compare the radiation theory of oil tankers with the dust of grain transportation. You can't imagine that coal is dirty, you can't imagine that wood is smelly, and you can't imagine that the radiation of oil tankers can be so deeply rooted in people's hearts. I ask to refute it.

3.？ Fast pace, slow speed, less berthing, long continuous sailing time, up to a month without berthing, no signal from mobile phones, many people can't accept it.

4.？ Ordinary crew members like to run bulk cargo, because they stay in the port for a long time, have enough fun in the fields and spend more time in the engine room. Compared with containers, the biggest disadvantage is that the stay time in Hong Kong is short, and the engine room has no time to go to the fields, so the engine room has a large workload and great pressure.

Because the bulk carrier has time guarantee, it has little to do with the distance from the port to the urban area and has little impact.

6. In terms of wages, bulk carriers have a little less money than containers, which may be due to the fact that job-hopping between different companies and bulk carriers and containers has little effect and is generally applicable.

Tanker:

1.？ In terms of wages, oil tankers rank the highest among the three, with the highest wages, which is the biggest advantage of running oil tankers. Run a boat abroad, just for dollars. There is only one purpose of running a boat, money!

2.？ Oil tankers are relatively slow in lifting, lack of jobs, high in requirements, strict in management and the highest in safety factor. The most dangerous place is often the safest place. Crew members have a strong sense of safety and self-protection.

3.？ I want to talk about the radiation theory of oil tankers again. The crude oil transport warehouse is fully enclosed, and the loading and unloading are transported by oil pipes, so that the human body will not touch it. Tankers are also different from other ships, and the hull manufacturing is more stringent.

4.？ Tankers, like bulk cargo, belong to point-to-point transportation.

The port where the tanker docked must be in a remote urban area, because of the crude oil reserve, the tanker is too large and so on.

6. The same position on an oil tanker can be transferred to containers and bulk carriers at will, while it is almost impossible for bulk carriers and containers to transfer to the same position on an oil tanker.

7. The practical information inquired by the refueling machine is limited. Please add: the main routes of oil tankers. The dock where the tanker docked. Working intensity on oil tanker. The sailing cycle of an oil tanker. Rigidity of tanker inspection. Promotion on the tanker. Comparison of main tanker owners' fleets.

I think this is also the information that many brothers who run boats want to know.

Other cases

LNG and LNG carriers have the highest salary in the same position, which is higher than that of oil tankers. Less boats, slow promotion, difficult job-hopping. Almost all other ships are diesel vehicles.

Passenger ships and cruise ships: the requirements are the highest and higher than that of oil tankers. After all, people are lucky, and they are all prominent and rich people. The division of labor on board is the smallest, the interview is the most difficult, there are few ships, and the promotion is slow. It is divided into crew working area and tourist exclusive area, and there are no special circumstances to restrict non-work requirements. Just like working in the front desk and backstage of a five-star hotel. You can't just wander around. Short-distance passenger ships from Dalian to Yantai are not very optimistic except that they can often go home to see them. Large cruise ships are still worth looking forward to, and of course the difficulty will not be small.
