EU has 27 Member States of which 22 have seaports Coastline of 70,000 km along two oceans and four seas Ten-T ports comprise 439 category A ports (seaports and inland ports) Diversity in geography, size, trade, governance, but. Huge importance for european economy Source: European Commission 2005

COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION Communication on a European Ports Policy (18.10.2007) Cooperation between ports and especially between those close to each other is most welcome, as it can lead, inter alia, to specialisation in cargo or ship types, and organisation and pooling of hinterland transport facilities. It would certainly lead in many cases to an improvement in output.

TEN-T AXIS AND ITALY

ANNUAL ACTIVITY REPORT PRIORITY PROJECT 21 (MOTORWAYS OF THE SEA). JULY 2009 The northern Adriatic area offers an exceptional concentration of ports, most of them with good inland connections (including TEN-T PPs 1 and 6). This cluster is composed of ports with different conditions and potentialities. But, together those ports represent an enormous potential and source of wealth for Europe. All of them are hinterland ports, serving prosperous areas. These ports must develop their individual potential but also articulate activities thereby taking advantage of their joint resources whilst protecting their common heritage. Investments will be required to improve their hinterland connections. However, the range offers a potential for international trade within the Mediterranean basin but also, with the Far-Eastern markets. For the "round the world" Suez trade routes, an efficient North Adriatic gateway may represent important savings both time and money wise.

MEMBERS OF NAPA Port of Koper Port of Trieste Port of Venice Port of Ravenna + Port of Rijeka (invited on the 21 st of April 2010) 3 countries: Italy + Slovenia (+ Croatia)

Venezia 66 nm Trieste Koper 91 nm 58 nm Ravenna

BACKGROUND Several initiatives for cooperation in the previous years, but no concrete activities. 6 th of February 2009 => Letter of Intent 17 th of April 2009 => Memorandum of Understanding 1 st of March 2010 => Registration of NAPA

REASONS Geographic position of North Adriatic (especially for Far East markets via Suez Canal), Slovenian membership in EU, Congestion of North European ports, Saturation of inland infrastructure, Unbalanced regional development (North South). Negative environmental impact, Global market conditions (after crisis: reallocation of existing flows of goods, new businesses), Increasing competition of Black Sea ports.

FIELDS OF COOPERATION Land transportation and hinterland connections, Marketing and Promotion, Short Sea Shipping and Motorways of the sea, Quality and efficiency of port operations, Safety, security and environmental protection, Information technologies and communication systems, Passenger sector.

OBJECTIVES Commercial: attracting more cargo to Europe via North Adriatic Ports (southern gateway) Institutional: developing suitable public transport infrastructure (priorities for Trans European Transport Network / corridors) to support bigger volumes and efficient services

INVESTMENTS These are the main NAPA investmentes to improve the competitiveness Total NAPA investments 5.5 billion Examples: Trieste - the logistic platform and the new container Terminal 1.349 million Venice new off-shore Terminal (oil + container) 1.300 million Koper - the new 3rd pier / Container Terminal 500 million Ravenna - dredging activity and new container terminal 749 million
