Abstract

Chemical tanker ships are one of the most used types of tanker ships in the maritime market. The use of chemical tankers in national and international waters is increasing day by day. Maritime businesses and shipowners prefer to lease the ships that are active in the market for some time instead of building and owning new ships. Due to the increase in preferences, it has been seen that it is an important issue to determine the selection of ships to carry this type of chemical cargo in different criteria. Many different criteria and methods are used to choose the most ideal of these chemical tankers based on the temporal charter of the maritime enterprises. In this regard, this study is aimed to determine the criteria that should be used for the selection of chemical tankers and to group these criteria. For this purpose, a survey study was conducted. 85 different chemical tanker selection criteria and the best 23 distinguishing criteria were determined using the Delphi method. It is envisaged that these 23 criteria will allow the authorized personnel of the company to choose the most ideal alternative chemical tanker.

Abstract

Kimyasal tanker gemileri, denizcilik piyasasında en çok kullanılan tanker gemi tiplerinden biridir. Ulusal ve uluslararası sularda kimyasal tankerlerin kullanımı her geçen gün artmaktadır. Denizcilik işletmeleri ve armatörler, yeni gemi inşa etmek ve sahiplenmek yerine, piyasada faaliyet gösteren gemileri bir süreliğine kiralamayı tercih etmektedirler. Tercihlerin artması nedeniyle bu tip kimyasal yükleri taşıyacak gemilerin seçiminin farklı kriterlerde belirlenmesinin önemli bir konu olduğu görülmüştür. Kimyasal tankerlerin en idealini seçmek için birçok farklı kriter ve yöntem kullanılmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, çalışmada kimyasal tanker seçiminde kullanılması gereken kriterlerin belirlenmesi ve kriterlerin gruplandırılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla bir anket çalışması yapılmıştır. Delphi yöntemi kullanılarak 85 farklı kimyasal tanker seçim kriteri ve en iyi 23 ayırt edici kriter belirlenmiştir. Belirlenen bu 23 kriterin firma yetkili personelinin en ideal alternatif kimyasal tankerini seçmesine olanak sağlayacağı öngörülmektedir.
