Kaliningrad
The Kaliningrad Port complex constitutes the basis of the region’s transport industry.
The Port of Kaliningrad is the westernmost non-freezing port of Russia with a favourable geographical location – no more than 600 km. separates it from capitals and ports of Poland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and the Baltic countries. Two branches of trans-European transport corridors run through the port: of the 1st one (VIA Hanseatica) and of the 9th one.
The port is connected to the Baltic Sea by the Kaliningrad Sea Canal, that is 43 km long, 50 – 80 m. wide, and allows maximum permissible LOA 170 meters and maximum permissible draft 8 – 9.6 meters. 15 stevedore companies offer their cargo transhipment services on 17 km of berthing lines.
Announced cargo capacity of terminals allows transhipping of 30 mln. tons of various cargoes (mostly export oriented) annually. The cargoes handled in the port include oil and oil products, coal, coke, timber and processed wood (board, plywood, pulp, paper), ferrous metals, ferroalloys, mineral fertilizers (liquid, bulk and in various package), refrigerated goods (meat, fish, butter, fruits), grain, container cargoes and wheeled machinery. 14.5 mln tons of cargoes was transhipped in 2011, which is by 14 % more then in 2010. Maximum turnover was in 2007 – 15,6 mln tons. Average tonnage of vessel called to the port:
