Bulk carriers are generally characterised as merchant ships designed to transport bulked cargo for instance coal, ore or grains, and are also familiarly known as bulk freighters or simply bulkers. The bulkers evolved rapidly since the first bulk carrier was built in 1852, accounting for around 40% in today’s world’s merchant fleet. The ability of modern bulkers is to carry up to 400,000 metric tonnes of deadweight.
The first ship characterised as a bulker was a British coal carrier SS John Bowesin which was launched in 1852. Different bulker design are produced for instance the ones reliable of port facilities to unload their cargo, ones that can unload the cargo by themselves or the most advanced bulk carriers are able to package the cargo as it is loaded. Greek, Japanese and Chinese bulkers account for half of the all bulk carriers in the world while one quarter of all bulkers in the world is registered in Panama.
