In this final paper new, modern technologies which are used in shipping today are elaborated. Different types of technologies in modern ships are compared, as well as their efficiency in relation to investment in the ships. The aim was to cover as much as possible, from bulck carriers to RO-RO ships. Container transportation was also included in the elaboration, and chemical transport ships as well. There is an attempt to see what is important in certain technologies, both in loads and in design solutions for specific ships. From the elaboration it can be concluded that today we live in a world where time runs quick, and time is the most important and the most expensive asset. As we have already mentioned, we have been discussing another segment of shipping, the reduction of human labor, and a global impact on shipping and its overall effect. A good invested-gained ratio in technological progress can be seen here, so we can already conclude what is waiting for us in the future.
