Abstract
In the last few years, the emerging trends of globalization changed the way of
business and it is growing very fast because of their ability to provide good products and
services to the consumers. It is observed that the process of shipping is linked to the
transmission of products from one country to another. The objective of this research report is
to evaluate the maritime logistics department and identify numerous environmental risks and
issues linked to maritime logistics. A literature review is conducted in order to analyse the
opinions of other researchers and improve the effectiveness of the paper. Mainly, this
research study focus on the environmental issues and threats occurred in the field of maritime
logistics. It is observed that the maritime logistics is defined as the complex process which is
used in the business industries for shipping products and items from one location to another.
Such kind of process has the ability for improving the performance of transport industries but
there are several challenges faced by companies while using maritime logistics which are
described in this report. There are various research methods included such as data
presentation, analysis and interpretation, qualitative research design, secondary data
collection method, and content analysis process for analysing the obtained data. This study
shows the significance of maritime logistics in the business sectors and risk factors linked
with the maritime logistic process. From the literature review, it has found that there are
major two kinds of maritime cargoes used in the companies which include general cargo and
bulk cargo. This study discussed the key aspects of logistics maritime and critically reviewed
the types of maritime logistics along with their environmental issues. It is identified that Due
to enhancement in these calamities, the overall risks of the ports in Australia have increased
heavily with the passage of time. Therefore, it is concluded that maritime logistic is an
effective process which can be used for improving the performance of transportation but it is

very important for companies to evaluate risks and issues linked with the maritime logistics.
It is recommended that companies should focus on the environmental risks and issues
associated with maritime logistics and develop a risk management plan for monitoring such
problems.
