Ocean transport refers to the movement of goods by ship across oceans and other bodies of water. It is a major mode of transportation for international trade, as it allows for the efficient and cost-effective movement of large quantities of goods over long distances. There are several types of ocean transport, including container ships, bulk carriers, and tanker ships. Container ships are used to transport standard-sized containers that can be easily loaded and unloaded using cranes and other specialized equipment. Bulk carriers are used to transport unpackaged goods, such as grains and minerals, in large quantities. Tanker ships are used to transport liquids, such as oil and gasoline. Ocean transport is often used in conjunction with other modes of transportation, such as truck and rail, to move goods from the point of production to the point of consumption.
