Abstract

In the article, for a selected group of cranes used for handling bulk cargoes in a seaport, an evaluation of the economic efficiency of the handling services provided was carried out. The analysis was based on the designated two key technical indicators - technical readiness and technical readiness utilization. The determined values of technical readiness indicators made it possible to determine the preparation of equipment and readiness to provide handling services. In turn, technical readiness utilization rates indicated at what level the handling capacity of the equipment is being used. It has been shown that the analysis of technical readiness indicators and the use of technical readiness may constitute an indication of the need to withdraw the reloading device from operation. It was confirmed that with properly performed inspection and service activities, reloading equipment maintains a high level of technical readiness even after a long period of use, and thus ensures a high level of technical readiness utilization. Simultaneously ensuring high values of technical readiness indicators and the use of technical readiness is one of the elements that directly translates into high economic efficiency of reloading services.
