In a world increasingly concerned with global issues involving sustainable development, the importance of balancing the transport pattern and its environmental impacts is evident. Brazil is a country of continental dimensions that has a population which the majority lives within 200 km of the coast. The maritime area called “Blue Amazon” due its size and richness found in it makes the use of maritime transport cannot be neglected. It is no coincidence that the cabotage sector has been growing consecutively even without the necessary investments in this area. The present work aims to understand the complexities of the transport sector that has the meaning of transport as logistical modes: road, air, rail, pipeline and water. For this reason, the goal is to correlate the meaning of transport and how Brazil can become competitive and adapt the UN guidelines in relation to sustainable development. Therefore, themes such as the decade of the oceans, the 2030 agenda, and the blue economy corroborate to understand the importance of sustainability in the development of green maritime transport. It is also necessary to understand how cabotage needs other transportations as a use of multimodality to have more sustainable logistics.

This paper analyses how digital technologies implementation in the maritime transport sector companies can help in achieving the Blue Economy goals. Previous research offering a comprehensive overview of digital technologies in the maritime transport sector within the context of the Blue Economy is scarce. To fill this research gap, the economic effects of maritime transport are investigated, and the positive impacts of digital technologies on maritime transport are analyzed, all in the context of the Blue Economy. The authors have concluded that by implementing digital technologies in the maritime transport sector, the Blue Economy goals related to maritime transport (for example transport cost reduction, decreased harmful emissions generated during the voyage and at the berth) can better be achieved, etc.
