Ocean transport has been the most important mode of transport in international trade. Two-thirds of the world total volume and over 80% China’s imports and exports now are transported by sea.
Ocean transport has many advantages. The first advantage is the easy passage since about 70% of the earth is covered by water.
Secondly, ocean transport has a large capacity. For example, the dead weight(loaded weight----fuel plus cargo) of the largest oil tanker can be up to 500,000 tons. Thirdly, because of such large capacity, the unit distribution cost is reduced. And finally, ocean transport has good adaptability to cargoes of different size, weight, shape, etc.
Of course, there are also disadvantages, one of which is the slow passage of ocean transport. In addition, ocean transport is also vulnerable to bad weather and less punctual(准时的) if compared with road or air transport.
