Bulk Carrier Ship #lifeatsea

Bulk carrier ship is a type of ship which transports cargoes in bulk quantities. The cargo transported in such ships is loose cargo i.e. without any specific packaging to it and generally contains items like food grains, ores and coals and even cement. Since their inception towards the mid-19th century, bulk vessels have been revolutionised and streamlined in order to facilitate greater ease for their owners and operators, presently. In terms of capacitances, the bulk carrier ship can carry a maximum cargo of about 4, 00,000 DWT. The vessels are further sub-divided into six major classes based on their cargo-carrying capacitance and the important marine channels through which they can easily pass.
