Resumo
Port efficiency is a key factor for the sustainability of international trade and economic growth of countries. Therefore, it is essential to know the performance and conduct the proper planning of port sector. In studies of efficiency in port facilities, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has been shown to be appropriate and their use has been increasing in the last 20 years. However, much of this research compares only specialized port facilities, which handle cargoes of the same nature. In order to promote efficiency analysis between multipurpose ports using DEA, this research examined a group of 29 Brazilian maritime public ports in cargo handling in 2013 towards their available infrastructure. There were used as model inputs the maximum draft in the access channel and the extension of dockage and as output variable the total cargo handled. Considering that in the handling of dry bulk, liquid bulk, general cargo and containers resources are used in different ways, it was proposed a procedure in order to avoid distortions in the technical application. The research also made it possible to identify port efficiency by cargo nature and to establish the ranking of port performance of the facilities. The results contribute to the evolution of the use of the technique and expansion of study opportunities in the port sector.
