초록

컨테이너선의 대형화 추이에 따라 일정 지역 내에 있는 항만 간에 컨테이너 화물을 유치하기 위한 경쟁이 치열해지고 있다. 결국, 컨테이너선의 기항 여부는 항만의 효율성과 직결되며, 항만의 효율성 분석은 항만 운영업자와 관리자의 의사결정에 영향을 미치는 강력한 경영 도구가 되며 항만 운영 계획을 수립하는데 유용한 정보를 제공한다. 본 연구는 지중해 지역에 있는 주요 컨테이너 항만들의 기술적 효율성을 조사하고 특정 요소가 컨테이너항만의 효율성에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 분석하는 데 목적이 있다. 비용 효율성은 CCR 모형과 BCC 모형을 사용하여 측정되었으며 주요 분석 대상은 지중해에 있는 7개국 12개 항만을 대상으로 하였다. 주요 항만은 발렌시아, 제노아, 암발리, 포트사이드, 알렉산드리아 등을 포함하고 있다. 본 연구는 지중해 지역에 있는 주요 항만의 효율성을 분석한 연구로써 의미가 있다. 또한, 연구 결과를 통해 어떤 변수에 주안점을 두어야 할지에 대한 기초 자료와 사전적 연구로서 의미가 있으며 또한 주요 해운항만 정책 입안자 또는 항만 운영업자 등의 효율적 의사결정에 유의미한 정보를 제공한다.

The current increasing size of container vessels affects the container port's situation. The containerization has changed the inter-modal handling process, which brought more flexibility and comfortableness in the shipping industry sector. Thus, it is very crucial to analyze the efficiency of container ports in the regional sphere. Such kind of efficiency analysis provide a powerful management tool for port operators and shipping managers in the Mediterranean market, and it also helps to form an information for planning new regional and national port operations. This paper aims to analyze the ports' technical efficiency of Mediterranean major container ports. It is conducted to establish the model of port performance and efficiency through the empirical test of the various factors. Regarding to the panel data collected from the 48 DMUs (decision making units), this study attempts to provide the empirical basis of the port efficiency relative to another factors in the total port performance. Due to the complexity of the various activities carried out at container ports, the study focuses only on the technical efficiency at the level of the Mediterranean container port. Unlike the practice of cross-sectional data analysis, originally established by Charnes et al. (1985), the panel data in DEA window analysis applications are used. The main focus of this study is the relative technical efficiency of 12 container ports from 7 countries in the Mediterranean market. The selection of ports under study is based on their high handling capability and rankings in World Top 100 (Containerization International, 2018).
