The notion “water freight” refers to cargo transportation in special-purpose container vessels, barges or water transport vehicles by the use of waterways. Freight is often represented by dry bulk cargo which comprises such goods as grain, coal, ore, etc. Companies offering water freight services also ship chemicals, construction materials, metals, food, etc. The water freight can be classified into such types as inland, sea/coastal, marine, intracoastal water freight, etc.
Water freight transport is the most convenient and cost saving solution when delivering heavy cargoes to locations remote from the producer or seller of goods. A.P. Moller-Maersk Group, CSCL, Mediterranean Shipping Co., American President Lines, CMA CGM, COSCO, Hapag-Lloyd and Evergreen Marine Corporation are among the largest container shipping companies on the water freight arena.
