Cargo ship
A cargo ship or freighter is any sort of ship or vessel that carries cargo, goods, and materials from one port to another. Thousands of cargo carriers ply the world's seas and oceans each year, handling the bulk of international trade. Cargo ships are usually specially designed for the task, often being equipped with cranes and other mechanisms to load and unload, and come in all sizes. Today, they are almost always built by welded steel, and with some exceptions generally have a life expectancy of 25 to 30 years before being scrapped.
Types
Cargo ships/freighters can be divided into five groups, according to the type of cargo they carry. These groups are:
General cargo vessels carry packaged items like chemicals, foods, furniture, machinery, motor- and military vehicles, footwear, garments, etc.
Tankers carry petroleum products or other liquid cargo.
Dry bulk carriers carry coal, grain, ore and other similar products in loose form.

Baltimore bridge collapse after massive cargo ship collision
Eight people were believed to have been on the Baltimore bridge when the massive container ship smashed into it in the early hours. Most of the 1.6-mile-long structure collapsed in seconds - sending those on it plunging into the river below. (Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe) The disaster has closed one of the busiest ports in the US. But a distress call from the ship allowed officials to stop traffic crossing the bridge, averting an even bigger tragedy. ----------------------- Follow us: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Channel4News/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/Channel4News TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@c4news Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/channel4news/

Mega Transports: Biggest Containership | Engineering Documentary
It is the largest heavy load transport on earth! The maiden voyage of the biggest containership of all times.
It is the largest heavy load transport on earth! When the first ship of the brand-new OOCL-fleet gets underway, more cargo is moved at one time than anywhere else in the world and ever before. At 21,100 TEU capacity, the vessels are the largest ever ordered to date.
400 meters long and about as wide as a football field (58.8 meters). These ships will not only be able to load more cargo than ever before, they will also be equipped with a number of high-class energy-saving systems.
This Episode shows the maiden voyage of the OOCL HONG KONG. Everything happens for the first time: the captain, the pilots and the harbour crew have never before manoeuvred a giant ship like this. Berthing, loading, steering: Risky manoeuvres, which have never been tested before.
Once berthed, the cargo loading pushes everyone involved to the limit. Crew, Crane operators and the lashing team. A loading procedure like this, with additional containers on top of the so far known stacking limit, has only been theoretically discussed, but never tested in real life. Balancing the ship, moving and securing the stunning mass of containers is a task, which does not condone even the slightest mistake.
The route from Shanghai to Rotterdam, with stop in Singapore brings constant challenges: pirate areas, onboard emergency drills and the navigation through the narrow waters of the Suez Canal. All of this happens under incredibly high pressure of time – will the world’s largest container ship stay on schedule on its maiden voyage?

Eight people were believed to have been on the Baltimore bridge when the massive container ship smashed into it in the early hours. Most of the 1.6-mile-long structure collapsed in seconds - sending those on it plunging into the river below.

The disaster has closed one of the busiest ports in the US. But a distress call from the ship allowed officials to stop traffic crossing the bridge, averting an even bigger tragedy.

In this interesting video about the world's largest container ships, we will tell you about how cargo container ships work, about the 3 largest container ships in the world, which you have probably heard about, but did not know that each of them can easily hold more than 20,000 containers!
We'll explain how container ships work, how they are designed and built, and how the Evergreen container ship and others set a world record! And before reaching the shoreline, the ship often faces another problem - trying to dock the massive vessel in an unfamiliar harbor, which requires outside help to climb aboard. Interesting videos about sea, ocean, ships, cargo ships and cargo ships. If you are a sailor or a ship lover, be sure to watch to the end, there are many interesting facts about ships in this video!

Mega Transports: Biggest Containership | Engineering Documentary
It is the largest heavy load transport on earth! The maiden voyage of the biggest containership of all times.
It is the largest heavy load transport on earth! When the first ship of the brand-new OOCL-fleet gets underway, more cargo is moved at one time than anywhere else in the world and ever before. At 21,100 TEU capacity, the vessels are the largest ever ordered to date.
400 meters long and about as wide as a football field (58.8 meters). These ships will not only be able to load more cargo than ever before, they will also be equipped with a number of high-class energy-saving systems.
This Episode shows the maiden voyage of the OOCL HONG KONG. Everything happens for the first time: the captain, the pilots and the harbour crew have never before manoeuvred a giant ship like this. Berthing, loading, steering: Risky manoeuvres, which have never been tested before.
Once berthed, the cargo loading pushes everyone involved to the limit. Crew, Crane operators and the lashing team. A loading procedure like this, with additional containers on top of the so far known stacking limit, has only been theoretically discussed, but never tested in real life. Balancing the ship, moving and securing the stunning mass of containers is a task, which does not condone even the slightest mistake.
The route from Shanghai to Rotterdam, with stop in Singapore brings constant challenges: pirate areas, onboard emergency drills and the navigation through the narrow waters of the Suez Canal. All of this happens under incredibly high pressure of time – will the world’s largest container ship stay on schedule on its maiden voyage?

Set sail with us as we navigate through the stormy seas and explore the Top 5 Most Expensive Container Ship Disasters in History. From hazardous materials lost at sea to colossal insurance claims, these tales are bound to leave you in awe.
ONE Apus (2020): This Japanese-flagged ship faced 15-meter waves, leading to a whopping $200 million loss when nearly 2,000 containers were swept overboard, 64 of which were carrying hazardous materials.
MSC Napoli (2017): Battling winds of 115 km/h, this British vessel suffered severe hull damage. The salvage operation, which involved exploding the ship into pieces, cost the UK government £120 million.
MOL Comfort (2013): A victim of extreme weather, MOL Comfort cracked and split in two. The sinking resulted in an astronomical $400 million loss, making it the most expensive disaster in shipping history.
Rena (2011): Striking a reef off New Zealand, Rena spilled 200 tons of fuel and lost 1,300 containers. A salvage operation costing $700 million, Rena is New Zealand’s worst maritime disaster.
Ever Given (2021): This mega-ship blocked the Suez Canal, holding up $9.6 billion in trade per day. A critical artery for global trade, the Suez Canal had never seen an incident like this in its 150-year history.

Cargo ship
A cargo ship or freighter is any sort of ship or vessel that carries cargo, goods, and materials from one port to another. Thousands of cargo carriers ply the world's seas and oceans each year, handling the bulk of international trade. Cargo ships are usually specially designed for the task, often being equipped with cranes and other mechanisms to load and unload, and come in all sizes. Today, they are almost always built by welded steel, and with some exceptions generally have a life expectancy of 25 to 30 years before being scrapped.
Types
Cargo ships/freighters can be divided into five groups, according to the type of cargo they carry. These groups are:
General cargo vessels carry packaged items like chemicals, foods, furniture, machinery, motor- and military vehicles, footwear, garments, etc.
Tankers carry petroleum products or other liquid cargo.
Dry bulk carriers carry coal, grain, ore and other similar products in loose form.
