Port Dues and charges:
7/31/2019 Black Sea Ports
2/17
Port dues depends on the vessel dimensions/volume
(LOA x Beam x Depth Molded = volume)
No difference in port dues calculation due to vessel flag/nationality.
According to Port Rules and regulations all port dues to be paid before vessel's arrival
(usually via ship's agent).
No tax on freight/cargo/vessel.
Weather information and conditions:
Average temp is 29C in the summer and 9C in winter. The lowest temperature
recorded is -21C and highest is 41C.
Port is ice-free year round. However, a rapid build up of ice on vessels'
superstructures can occur in winter during strong NE'ly winds.
Between November and March a strong, gusty NE'ly winds (called "BORA") blowing
from the coastal mountains can occasionally reach hurricane force. This wind maylast 3 days or more.
Significant wave height is less than 1m for 70% of the time in the summer, andgreater than 2-3m for 20% of the time in the winter.

designed for handling of container & Ro-Ro vessels. Started its activity in summer2004, today NUTEP operates around 5000 TEUs monthly which is close by the
planned first stage level - 70000 TEUs a year. The terminals total area makes
37000 sq.m. NUTEP is equipped by to ship-to-shore cranes (Hans type) with liftingcapacity up to 40 tons and three rea-stackers. Within next days the supply ofTerberg trucks is planned. The Ro-Ro pier handles two ferry lines calling to Bulgaria,
Georgia and Turkey.
The future image of new terminal is much more impressive. It is expecting the reach
volume of 600000 TEUs yearly with storage area capacity 12450 TEUs. Totalterminals area to increase almost 7 times more and to be 253000 sq.m. The bottom

Batumi Oil Terminal
History
Batumi Oil Terminal handles the technical operation, maintenance, renovation andnew construction of the Batumi Oil Terminal facilities. Batumi Oil Terminal is located
at the seaport of Batumi, in the Autonomous Republic of Ajaria, Georgia. TheTerminal has been operating for over 120 years.
In August 1999 the Greenoak Group acquired an oil transshipment facility in Batumiin a privatisation. The Terminal's history goes back to the beginning of the Caucasus
oil history in the late nineteenth century but at the time of privatisation it was a rundown state-owned facility, which had been the target of many international
investment companies due to its important strategic location. The local governmentwas looking for investors to develop the potential of the Terminal but was not
successful. However, Greenoak Group succeeded by committing to a significantcapital expenditure programme over a three year period.
The Terminal transships crude oil and oil products exported by regional producers inKazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Georgia. During the period of Greenoak's
ownership throughput has increased three times and the Terminal has been
completely rebuilt and modernised at a cost of more than USD 60 million.

Discharge capacities
212 rail tank cars can be unloaded simultaneously at the Terminal's dischargeestacadas, bringing the total daily discharge capacity to over 850 rail tank cars. All
estacadas are connected to one or more tank farms, allowing a high degree offlexibility. Although all estacadas are by default fitted to perform bottom discharge,
all of them also have the possibility of unloading railcars from the top. Recently, anew state-of-the-art estacada has commenced its operation, boasting a multi-level
product heating system for heavy crudes and viscous products. All the Terminal'sestacadas have electronic registration of data on products discharged.
Vessels loading capacities
The Terminal operates three jetties and one Conventional Buoy Mooring location(CBM). The CBM, being the largest loading facility, allows the loading of vessels of up
to 130,000 tonnes and is used for the loading of both crude oil and light oil products.Jetty One, with a capacity of up to 47,000 tonnes, is typically used for the loading of
smaller lots of crude, fuel oil, and other products. Jetties Two and Three offerservices to customers who elect to load smaller vessel lots not exceeding 15,000 and
20,000 tonnes, respectively.Contact
