Bulk Carrier

A bulk carrier is a type of cargo ship designed to transport a large quantity of unpackaged goods, such as coal, grain, or minerals, across oceans. Unlike container ships, which carry goods in boxes, bulk carriers have large holds that can be filled directly with these materials. Their design allows for efficient loading and unloading, often using cranes or conveyor systems. Bulk carriers come in various sizes, depending on the volume they can carry, and play a crucial role in global trade by moving essential raw materials to markets around the world.
