Abstract

With this diploma thesis, we attempt to examine the behavior of shipping seafarers in the years of the crisis and how far it has been able to remain unaffected during this period. First of all, what is described below are the types of ships used, their technical characteristics and the types of cargo they carry. The loads carried by sea are more extensively analyzed as they vary according to the category in which they belong and need to be treated differently in terms of their size, construction material and other technical characteristics. What is more, this diploma thesis describes the global financial crisis as a phenomenon in all its aspects. Focus on the influence of the shipping crisis, references to past crises that have occurred, the causes, impacts and methods of dealing with the current crisis, always guided by the experience of the past. Furthermore, the period just before the "outbreak" of the crisis, from 2006 to the present is quantified. The progress of investments for the new and second-hand vessels is highlighted, the goods and quantities transported, fare prices, the course of imports and exports, as well as how very strong countries in the shipping industry such as China and Greece dealt with this crisis. Charts and tables are used for better understanding of the numerical data but also other elements that are further analyzed in the main part of this diploma. Finally, with the assistance of the SPSS statistical tool, a simple linear analysis with global GDP variables and total loads transported by sea is made. The time period reviewed is 2006-2015 and the results that come out of this diploma thesis help us to draw useful conclusions on the interdependence of the various maritime indicators.
