35 It is common to count double (loading <strong>and</strong> unloading) in the container transshipment segment. This should be<br />

noted in the evaluation of the rankings of the world’s largest container ports. For example, in 2005 Singapore<br />

recorded h<strong>and</strong>ling of 23.2 mn TEU, 80% of which belonged to the transshipment segment, or 18.64 mn TEU<br />

of the total container h<strong>and</strong>ling. This means that 9.32 mn TEU were unloaded in Singapore. Then 9.32 mn TEU<br />

plus the remaining amount of 4.64 mn TEU were again loaded onto ships.<br />
