Containerized transportation is the most important means in international cargoes shipping today. At present the port industries are competing strongly among Kaohsiung, Keelung, Taichung port in Taiwan. Container traffic is a majorindex to show the importance of the port in this competitive market. The service quality of container gantry cranes affects the Keelung port competitive power. The goal of this research is to study overhaul and replacement scheduling of container gantry cranes in Keelung port and hope to improve service quality by appropriate scheduling. This paper established indexes to estimate scheduling first, then finding fesible schedulings and using genetic algorithm to choose a better scheduling. The analysis shows that the accumulation of failure hours is a strictly increasing quadratic function of working hours after beginning ofoperation or overhaul. The objective of this research considered here includingfailure rate, the number of overhaul cranes and cost.
