Un inmenso vacío repleto de mar. El río Ibaizabal que recibe, en Urbi (dos aguas) Basauri, el caudal procedente del Nerbioi forma un sinuoso cauce que fusiona y enfrenta sus aguas, entorno a la antigua isla de San Cristóbal, con las procedentes de la mar a través de su estuario en el paraje hasta donde llegaba el flujo y reflujo de las mareas, a dos leguas y media (unos km) de la mar. Aprovechando, según la historia, un lugar vadeable junto al camino de Castilla se construirá “la puente” de piedra de San Antón anexo a una peña sobre la que se edificó un alcázar, posteriormente iglesia de San Antón, donde existía un fondeadero natural para los barcos. El puente unía las orillas que acogían a dos pueblas diferentes.

    HEADING TOWARDS THE FUTURE The Port of Bilbao is progressing in all directions. In logistics capacity, new infrastructures and services, in innovation. Besides its privileged geographical location, it offers modern and functional services with a wide range of maritime services open to all international markets. It has marvellous land and rail connections improving its logistical potential, its intermodalism. We have made constant progress for over 700 years to keep ahead of our users’ require- ments. Over the last 15 years we have been preparing for the future, executing our most important extension and improvement project to date. This project is converting us into one of the biggest European ports of reference. 2 CONTENTS IN THE CENTRE INTERMODAL SUSTAINABLE OF THE ATLANTIC TRANSPORT DEVELOPMENT Page 04 Page 06 Page 12 OPERATIONS AND INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL PASSENGER COMMERCIAL COMMERCIAL TERMINALS TERMINALS TERMINALS SERVICES SERVICES Page 14 Page 16 Page 20 Page 28 Page 30 RIVER INDUSTRIES AND INVESTMENT MARKETS DIRECT SHIPPING LINES PORT OF BILBAO SHIPYARDS FEEDER SERVICES PLAN PORT COMPANIES Page 36 Page 38 Page 42 Page 43 Page 54 3 BILBAO IN THE CENTRE OF THE ATLANTIC LOCATION 4 IN THE CENTRE OF THE ATLANTIC In the middle of the Bay of Biscay, equidistant between Brest and Finisterre, the Port of Bilbao is central in the European Atlantic.

  • Analysis of Natural Gas Supply Chain and Optimisation of Small-Scale Liquefied Natural Gas Supply Chain in Spain By
    Erasmus University Rotterdam MSc in Maritime Economics and Logistics 2017/2018 Analysis of Natural Gas Supply Chain and Optimisation of Small-Scale Liquefied Natural Gas Supply Chain in Spain by Suhong Ahn copyright © Suhong Ahn Acknowledgements I appreciate Dr. Zuidwijk for valuable feedback for my thesis. Life is continuously unexpected and tough. However, I have managed it well so far with the support from my family. My mother always believes and supports me. Without my father, I would not be here since he introduced and helped me in the maritime industry. ii Abstract Spain has the most extensive infrastructure of small-scale LNG (SSLNG) in Europe. This leads to the complexity of the distribution of SSLNG to the domestic destinations. The purpose of the study is the optimisation of small-scale liquefied natural gas (SSLNG) supply chain by truckload transportation in Spanish territory in the Iberian Peninsula. Also, SSLNG in Spain cannot exist without large-scale LNG after trading the resource so, the whole markets are analysed. Seasonality of LNG causes a problem for truck companies transporting LNG since the companies should manage the surplus from the gap between peak and off-peak season. Another problem is a limit of LNG output truckload capacity at LNG receiving terminals. This leads for SSLNG facility to be supplied SSLNG not always from the nearest terminal. The last issue is derived from El Musel terminal under not operation by Spanish government even though a tremendous amount of capital was invested for the terminal. So, it is essential to justify the operation of the terminal to the Spanish government not to waste the investment.

Cover image: PX Fuel Caterina Zepnova, Nora Miralles and Felip Daza, Observatory of Human Rights and Business of the Mediterranean Region (ODHE) and Shock Monitor-Observing Private War Impact on Human Rights. Around 90% of the global trade in goods is carried out through maritime transport. Within this framework, ports are strategical hubs that maintain the global supply chain functioning. Shipping is a priority for the EU economy; around two billion tonnes of cargo are loaded and unloaded at EU ports, while one billion tonnes of oil transit through EU ports and EU waters1. For this reason, the EU and the Member States are steadily innovating in maritime and port security. Ports of Catalonia are key hubs in the Mediterranean Sea. In 2018, the Port of Barcelona reached total traffic of 67,7 million tonnes, being the Chinese businesses its key partners in terms of exports and imports. In the past years, the performance boost of the Port has been heavily dependent on Asian markets, with elements such as the new container platform BEST and the 2021 recovery ports in catalan Smart security plans designed by the Port authorities.

In this scenario, a feasibility study of the installation of wave energy converters, such as the Sea Slot-Cone Generator (SSG) and the Oscillating Water Column (OWC), was carried out in existing breakwaters in the North of Spain, choosing Punta Langosteira (Outer Port of A Coruña), Dique Torres and Dique Norte (Port el Musel, Gijón) and Punta Lucero (Port of Bilbao). It was aimed at capturing the great energy potential of the Atlantic Ocean, as an innovative solution linked to the development
