In the first semester of this year the traffic of the goods enlivened from the port of Ravenna has recorded an light bending of the -1,4% thanks to the rise of +2.1% of the volumes enlivened in according to trimester that has partially compensated the totaled decrease of the -5,2% in the first three months of 2015.

Altogether in the first six months of this year the port of call has enlivened 12,1 million tons of cargos regarding 12,3 million tons in the first half of 2014. The goods several is piled to 5,2 million tons (+3.4%), of which 1,2 million containerized tons of goods (+3.8%) with a container handling that has been pairs to 116.079 teu (+11.2%), 725 thousand tons of rotabili (- 19.9%) and 3,2 million several tons of other goods (+10.5%). In the section of the bulk sand banks the traffic is diminished of -4,0% to the 4,9 million one tons, with 2,3 million tons of crude ores, concretes and soccers (+10.0%), 926 thousand tons of alimentary commodities and feeds (- 31.9%), 789 thousand tons of cereals (+3.0%), 760 thousand tons of fertilizers (- 0.7%) and 133 thousand tons of coal (+21.1%). In the field of the liquid bulk the total volume has been of 2,0 million tons (- 6.5%), of which 23 thousand tons of crude oil (- 75.8%), 837 thousand producing tons of refined (+4.9%), 427 thousand tons of chemicals (- 16.4%), 270 thousand tons of liquified gases (+3.3%) and 482 thousand tons of other liquid bulk (- 6.4%). The traffic of the passengers has been almost 21 thousand people (- 3.4%).

In the second solo trimester of the 2015 traffic total April-june has been of 6,5 million tons regarding than less 6,4 million tons in the period last year. The goods several has been attested 2,8 million to tons (+13.8%), of which 655 thousand tons of goods in container (- 1.2%), 382 thousand tons of rotabili (- 20.0%) and 1,8 million several tons of other goods (+33.4%). The solid bulk has been pairs to 2,6 million tons (- 4.0%) and the liquid bulk almost 1,1 million tons (- 8.4%).

"If the year continued so - it has found the president of the Harbour Authority of Ravenna, Galliano Di Marco - could unprecedented close 2015 on the values of traffic of a 2014 - very beyond our initial esteem - although flood, the physiological problem of the backdrops for which in 20 years it has not been made nothing and the inutilizzabilità of the current cases of overwhelmed, filled up until 2011 and never emptied. If we look the situation - it has observed Of Marco - Venice in the Adriatic, also earning 16% on the liquid bulk and 18% on the containers, it loses on the solid bulk and it closes the first six months of the year with a total of 12.581.899 tons of goods enlivened, against ours 12.132.284. Once again if the liquid bulk were not considered, I confront would be clearly in favor of Ravenna with beyond 10 million traffic regarding little more than eight million than Venice. The same one is said for Ancona that, in the first six months of the year, it has enlivened altogether little more than four million than tons of goods of which beyond two million goods liquid and Trieste that, to clearly of the oil, is abundantly behind it is to Ravenna that to Venice".

"More analyzing in detail the categories of goods - it has continued the president of the harbour agency ravennate - while the decrease in the ro-ro was expectable for the lacked resumption, to full regime, of the line for Greece, the decrease in the liquid bulk turns out totally unexpected. With respect to the traffic ro-ro, it is news of last Wednesday that the Grimaldi group, for mouth of its shareholder and managing director, Manuel Grimaldi, will at full speed resume the line for Greece - that he will operate from today with two modern ships ro-ro, l'Eurocargo Trieste and l'Eurocargo Patrasso, that they will call at Ravenna in the three days in which to Terminal T&C not there will be the ships for the South Italy. Reason for which we expect to soon return to the numbers record of 2014. On the liquid bulk - it has specified Of Marco - the data down, frankly, is inexplicable, if not for external factors to the port".

The president of the Harbour Authority of Ravenna has at last beckoned the proposal of reform of the legislation in harbour matter under consideration by the government and, in particular, to the hypothesis of amalgamation of several Harbour Authorities, amalgamations - he has rimarcato Of Marco - that "they are necessary, was not other that for clearly giving a sign of reduction of the public expense in a field in which the words "benchmark" and "spending review" totally are disowned. With respect to who he must go under who - he has specified Of Marco - enough to look the numbers of the MIT/Assoporti table in order to understand which are the true Italian Cores ports: Genoa, Taranto, Livorno and Ravenna. Only ports to exceed 20 million the tons of goods, to clearly of the liquid bulk. Moreover - the president of the ravennate authority has remembered - also Brussels in the first drawing up of the nets TRIES, had characterized "only" eight ports that exceeded the "fixed minimal thresholds": Genoa, La Spezia, Livorno, Gioia Tauro, Taranto, Ravenna, Venice and Trieste. Ravenna, therefore, does not have to be worried and "market-driven" does not fear no reform. We continue to support with force the riformatrice action of the Renzi government and invite minister Delrio to go ahead".
