In this study, we assume we have more than one business scenarios, then we want to know which one is the best, both technically and financially. In pre-feasibility stage we select the best idea among several ideas. It will be hard and takes time if we explore each scenario deeply. Therefore, shortcut method deems acceptable in this early stage and can be used to determine minor components of investment and production cost. If the selected scenario is considered feasible, it is recommended to continue the study to feasibility to get deeper analysis of the selected project scenario. Feasibility study is an advanced study based on test work and engineering analysis, which presents enough information to determine whether or not the project should be advanced to be final engineering and implementation stage. This is a “go/no-go” decision point, thereby implying that sometimes the answer is NO. However, once a project is advanced to the feasibility study stage, companies often have committed considerable capital and professional reputation and therefore assume the answer will be that the project is feasible. That is also the second difference between feasibility study and pre-feasibility study. PCS Technical Specification Overview Project co-funded by European Union funds (ERDF, IPA) 7 2 The existing

    “Mircea cel Batran” Naval Academy Scientific Bulletin, Volume XV – 2012 – Issue 2 Published by “Mircea cel Batran” Naval Academy Press, Constanta, Romania COMERCIAL TRADING OF LIQUID CARGO THROUGH PORT OF MIDIA Viorel FLORESCU1 Alecu TOMA, 2 1 University assistant, Nautical Science Department, “Mircea Cel Batran” Naval Academy 2 Lecturer, PhD, Nautical Science Department, “Mircea Cel Batran” Naval Academy Abstract: Port of Midia, the second large port on the Romanian Black Sea litoral, has been projected to accommodate the Oceanic Fishing Fleet and to manipulate liquid cargo (petrochimical products) and Life Stock. Except the „traditional ways of transport „ on the road and rail way”, Port of Midia is the gate for the Poarta Alba – Midia- Navodari canal which connects the Black Sea with Danube River. Industry evolution in the last 30 years has imposed changing of the harbour logistics and facilities in order to respond and to face the new challenges. Today, in the Port of Midia, the main categories of cargo operated are: Crude oil, Clean Refined Products, GPL , Scrap Iron and Life stock. The increment of the refining capacity of the petrochimical industry, has imposed the need of finding new solutions for higher eficiency of the liquid cargo handling through port of Midia. In order to export bigger quantities of clean products the port logistics and facilities will have to be reconsidered, the navigating chanel will have to be enlarged so that the oil tankers that will be accommodated by the Midia Harbor to be higher than 10.000 tdw. Same thing can be achieved with a specialized white product SPM installed off port limit.

The regional and local wind resources measured at a height of 100 m above sea level were assessed by taking into account 20 years (2000–2019) of ERA5 wind data. The wind speed significantly increases as we move towards the offshore areas, with the wind Class C7 reporting a maximum of 41%. By combining the annual electricity production with the emissions associated with the port activities, it was possible to show that at least 385 turbines (each rated at eight MW) will be required to cover the electricity demand for this port. The present study has found it difficult to implement such a project based only on the available wind resources and has identified that more likely a mixed project that involves some other resources will be more appropriate.

  • Study Regarding the Increment of Liquid Cargo Transfer Through Port of Midia Specialized Berths
    “Mircea cel Batran” Naval Academy Scientific Bulletin, Volume XVI – 2013 – Issue 2 Published by “Mircea cel Batran” Naval Academy Press, Constanta, Romania STUDY REGARDING THE INCREMENT OF LIQUID CARGO TRANSFER THROUGH PORT OF MIDIA SPECIALIZED BERTHS Viorel FLORESCU1 Sergiu LUPU2 Naval Academy, Constanta, Romania Abstract: The continuous development of Petromidia refinery requires new technologies and logistics to be used beginig with 2012 in order to increase the refining capacity with more that 1 million tons of crude oil per year. A new Oil Terminal consisting in an Off Shore Single Point Mooring (SPM) has been builded off Port of Midia limits, terminal that facilitate the import of the necessary crude oil quantity for the refinery reducing the handling costs and minimalising losses. Considering that Port of Midia has been projected to accommodate ships of max 10.000 tdw, measures will have to be taken in order to create the posibility to export larger quantities of liquid products. New specialized berths will have to be builded or the actual configuration of the port basin will have to be changed. This paper is presenting few solutions for the above mentioned points. Key words: Port of Midia, liquid products, berths, dredging 1.
