Develop solutions that could satisfy both these requirements is mandatory to improve and sustain today’s businesses. For Portuguese industries with high transportation costs the maritime option has become increasingly reliable, experiencing a huge structural and technological improvement in the past decades. This work project aims the study of maritime transportation feasibility for Volkswagen Autoeuropa company; it combines the strong theoretical background with a data analysis and multi-scenario assessment. The methodologies used were the billing analysis, at the beginning, then followed by a thorough analysis of transportation and inventory costs and volumes which led to a range of potential supplies to be transported by maritime. At the end the result was 3 possible routes which demonstrate after the analysis only one be a viable option. It was performed also a CO2 analysis, a risk analysis and consequent contingency plan in order to finalize a complete approach to this maritime projectNSBE - UNLSoeiro, Filipe CastroRUNSantos, Liliana Maia dos2015-04-08T08:57:17Z2014-012014-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/14623TID:201530635enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T17:18:12Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/14623Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T16:48:56.937974Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
