摘要

背景:自从厄立特里亚这个前省份获得独立以来,埃塞俄比亚一直是内陆国家。它的海上进出口现在通过邻近的沿海国家,主要是吉布提,它需要确保可持续地进入多个过境走廊。目的:本文旨在评估埃塞俄比亚在基础港口基础设施和物流成本方面的替代过境走廊。研究结果为确保该国可靠的海上通道的政策提供了见解。方法:本研究采用个案研究的方法,利用二手资料对可选择的交通走廊进行评估。在对理论和实证文献进行批判性回顾之后,描述性统计使用表格、图形和图表呈现。结果:通过吉布提进行低成本、高容量、高频率的全球海运贸易比通过肯尼亚蒙巴萨或苏丹港更容易,因为吉布提的班轮运输连通性更好。因此,埃塞俄比亚应继续通过吉布提港进口集装箱货物。然而,通往海洋的直接通道对国防和安全也很重要。结论:因此,无论经济可行性如何,埃塞俄比亚应确保通过多个港口进入以维护国家安全。这可以通过将散货、干散货和石油产品通过苏丹和肯尼亚的港口来实现。此外,应特别强调最靠近该国经济中心的海港,例如索马里兰的柏培拉和厄立特里亚的阿塞布和马萨瓦。

Optimal transit corridors for Ethiopia
Background: Ethiopia has been landlocked since Eritrea, a former province, gained independence. Its imports and exports by sea are now sent via neighbouring coastal states, mainly Djibouti, and it needs to ensure sustainable access to multiple transit corridors. Objective: This article aims to evaluate alternative transit corridors to Ethiopia in terms of basic port infrastructure, and logistics costs. The findings provide insights to inform policy on securing reliable maritime access to the country. Method: This study adopts a case study approach by using secondary data to evaluate alternative transit corridors. Following a critical review of theoretical and empirical literature, descriptive statistics are presented using tables, graphs and charts. Results: Low-cost, high-capacity and high-frequency global maritime freight trade is easier through Djibouti than through Mombasa in Kenya or Port Sudan, owing to its better liner shipping connectivity. Thus, Ethiopia should continue to import containerised cargo through the Port of Djibouti. However, direct access to the sea is also important for national defence and security. Conclusion: Ethiopia should therefore secure access through multiple ports to safeguard national security, regardless of economic feasibility. This can be realised by directing break-bulk, dry bulk and petroleum products through ports in Sudan and Kenya. In addition, particular emphasis should be given to seaports closest to the country’s economic centre, such as Berbera in Somaliland and Asseb and Massawa in Eritrea.
