    Ro-Ro and Lash

    Uploaded by

    Amar Funde
    Ro-Ro and Lash vessels are designed to efficiently load and unload wheeled cargo like cars and trailers. Ro-Ro ships use ramps to drive cargo on and off while Lash ships carry smaller barges aboard the main vessel. Ro-Ro transportation reduces damage, storage needs, and turnaround times but requires experienced drivers and specialized equipment. Lash introduced in the 1960s allows further streamlining of cargo loading and unloading through the transportation of lighter barges aboard the main ship.

    ROLL-ON/ROLL-OFF
    abbreviation: Ro-Ro

    system of loading and discharging a vessel whereby the cargo is driven on and off by means of a ramp ships are designed to carry wheeled cargo such as automobiles, trailers or railway carriages in contrast to lo-lo (lift on-lift off) vessels which use a crane to load and unload cargo

    RO/RO ADVANTAGES

    Reduces Vessel Turnaround Time Allows Intermodal Movement of Cargo Reduced Damage/Loss Reduced need for Covered Storage Excellent for Unit Equipment Moves Sophisticated Port Facilities Not Needed

    RO/RO DISADVANTAGES:

    Inefficient Use of Space Dependent on Range of Tides Requires Experienced Drivers Vertical Clearance Limitations Specialized Lashing Gear Required Requires Large Staging Area

    LASH ( LIGHTER ABROAD A SHIP )

    Lighter Aboard Ships (LASH) is a type of ship which can carry other ships, especially lighter barges. It was introduced in the 1960s by an American marine engineering pioneer Jerome Goldman.

    FEATURES OF LASH
    A lash vessel streamlines the process of cargo lading and unloading transportation of the lighter barges most advanced vessels at the time of their introduction
