Description
This dataset represents the transportation of 1 ton of cargo by a tanker (deadweight of 20,000 tons) over a distance of 1 kilometer in coastal and offshore areas. The transportation dataset covers the entire life cycle of transportation, including tanker production and maintenance, port construction, energy consumption, and operational emissions.
The tanker has a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 20,000 tons and a main engine power of approximately 4,440 kW, values derived from Chinese maritime vessel standards and related references. Fuel consumption is calculated based on the vessel's load capacity, main engine power, and operating speed. Major emissions (CO2, NOx, SOx, PM, NMVOC, CO, CH4, N2O, etc.) are estimated according to marine fuel consumption and relevant standards. For port infrastructure, data is reasonably extrapolated based on global port-related information.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the transportation service of 1 t·km for a liquid cargo ship (deadweight of 20,000 t) in China's coastal and offshore regions. The dataset covers the entire transportation life cycle, including the production and maintenance of the liquid cargo ship, port construction, energy consumption, and operational emissions.
Process Description
This dataset can be used for 1 t·km freight transportation services using tankers (deadweight of 20,000 tons) in China's coastal and offshore waters. This refers to providing transportation services for 1 ton over a distance of 1 kilometer, considering only the transport of cargo. The vessel uses diesel fuel.
