This paper presents a scenario analysis to determine the impact of a ship disaster on river Elbe on the transportation chain of the port of Hamburg. It is of special interest to decide how to dodge ships for the time of the disaster, and to detour trains and trucks for loading and unloading. This paper also show the development of the scenario analysis, experiments evaluating the impact on port transportation, analysis of simulation results and conclusions.
