The Hub Status and Transportation Network of Kribi Port | Chapter 1 | New Ideas Concerning Science and Technology Vol. 2

In order to determine an appropriate port to act as a hub port in the Central African region, an evaluation of four Cental African ports is performed. The study uses the method of port indexing to measure the four ports. The Port of Kribi, the Port of Bata, the Port of Libreville and the Port of Pointe-Noire are the ports assessed. Other models are also used, including linear regression and linear programming, to provide the port's final results with the most effective ability to act as a hub port. The results show that the port of Pointe-Noire is the most fitting port to act as a hub port for the Central African region.
