20.500.12556/RUL-176486 Analyses of the container throughput case study on the selected ports of Europe and China This paper examines container throughput and port efficiency in selected ports in Europe and China using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and provides information on the competitiveness and performance of the ports studied. The selection of regions is based on the fact that the recorded bilateral trade flows, most of which are handled by sea, have increased significantly in recent years. The DEA analysis shows that ports such as Shanghai, Qingdao, Antwerp and Ningbo-Zhoushan have different technical efficiency indices, which indicates potential for improvement in the rationalization of processes and the allocation of resources. In contrast, the ports of Rotterdam and Piraeus show optimal efficiency, indicating effective utilization of resources. This paper emphasizes proactive management, operational adjustments, and investment in port infrastructure to improve port resilience and performance. While the paper provides insightful conclusions, it also recognizes limitations and the need for further research on qualitative aspects that influence port efficiency. container throughput port efficiency container ports maritime shipping DEA models Europe-China kontejnerski promet pristanišča DEA modeli true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-12-02 11:25:32 2025-12-02 11:25:33 2026-02-05 14:54:49 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 244-250 Vol. 83 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 656.6:005.31 2352-1465 10.1016/j.trpro.2025.02.033 230656515 230609155 1-s2.0-S2352146525000353-main.pdf 1-s2.0-S2352146525000353-main.pdf 1 2F8C5C11B846662CD913A27682DA9127 a2da430a088e89e344d29a03c40b2839ae86d51b1c18ddf7bda7ddb0a352064f 4d8c1427-cf69-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=222839 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352146525000353 1 d9d6e11e-cf68-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=222838 Fakulteta za pomorstvo in promet 0 0 0
