Abstract
Despite much research being conducted on the efficiency of ports, there is little information available on the efficiency of container terminals that constitute these ports. The purpose of this study is to propose an efficient operation method for terminals by comparing and analyzing the efficiency of 18 container terminals that recorded high berth productivity in 2013. The technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency, and scale efficiency of each terminal were measured using data envelopment analysis. For efficiency analysis, terminal area, berth length, and a number of C/C were used as input variables and the number of containers moving per hour was used as the output variable. Of the 18 terminals analyzed, the Total Terminals International - Pier T, Ningbo Gangji (Yining) Terminal, and Tianjin Five Continents International Container Terminal were the most efficient.
