A good transport system is needed if goods are to be traded efficiently. A Shipper can choose how to send his consignment (the goods) to the Consignee:
- by water, which covers both national and international shipping;
- by land, road or rail;
- by air.
Like all other means of transport, shipping has certain advantages and disadvantages for Shipper and Consignee:

The insurance costs are relatively high. |
There are several types of sea-going ships which carry cargo:
Liners sail on a fixed route and keep to a schedule. They mainly transport general cargo, containers.
Tramps take any cargo they can get and sail to any port required. They do not follow a schedule or any fixed route. As a rule, they carry bulk cargo and timber.
Coasters travel from one port to another along the coast of a country. They are not used for international shipping.
The transport document used specifically for ocean shipping is the Bill of Lading.
When goods are transported, they are called “cargo”. Cargo can be divided into three categories:
General cargo – goods sent packed in boxes, cases, crates and containers.
Bulk cargo – large quantities of items such as sand, grain, ore and coal when sent unpacked.
Bulky cargo – large individual items such as cars sent unpacked.
Liner – линейное судно
Tramp – трамповое судно
Coaster – каботажное судно
Bill of Lading – коносамент (накладная для морских перевозок)
