15 The LinePort and LineRail databases, developed by the Fundación Valenciaport, compile information related to the regular short sea shipping services (SSS) and rail freight services that have fixed frequency, departure times and routes and, therefore, reflect the open and ongoing supply of transport. These essential tools for analysing SSS and rail freight services provide data referring to the characteristics of the services (frequency, transit time, origin and destination, etc.) and the characteristics of the fleet (capacity, age, size, etc.). This section details the methodology used to calculate the indicators published in this edition.

SSS SERVICES

Classifications defined in the LinePort database

Classification of services

• SSS: commodity and passenger transport services by sea between ports in geographical Europe or between those countries and others situated in non-Eu- ropean countries having a coastline on the enclosed seas bordering Europe - in keeping with the definition of SSS by the European Short Sea Network (ESN). Interoceanic maritime transport services that accept freight bound for destination countries studied by the LinePort database have also been considered. MEMBER STATE OF THE EU THIRD COUNTRIES SSS NON SSS

16 • SSS alternative to road transport: this category includes maritime container Ports studied or ro-ro services that we believe represent an alternative to overland transport. • Origin ports: 46 Spanish ports of general interest grouped in 28 Port The traffic between Spain and countries or islands not accessible over land* Authorities. (except Ireland) have therefore been excluded from this classification, along with bulk and vehicle freight and interoceanic services, as they are considered The following classification is obtained using the location of the Spanish ports to have a series of logistical features that make road transport unfeasible or as a basis: uncompetitive and can consequently be considered, to a certain extent, a captive market of maritime transport. • Atlantic Coastline: Includes the Spanish ports on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean and the Cantabrian Sea. *The routes with ports in Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, Iceland, Corsica, , the , the Canary Islands, and Melilla are therefore excluded. • Mediterranean Coastline: Includes the port of Algeciras Bay, the Spanish ports on the coast of the . • Motorways of the Sea: SSS services that are defined as follows: minimum CANTABRIAN SEA frequency of 3 departures per week and 3 maximum number of calls Avilés Ferrol-S. Cibrao Santander Two geographical areas are considered: Pasajes A Coruña Gijón Bilbao • Western MoS: Vilagarcía SSS services competitive with road haulage established Marín y Ría de in the Western European corridor connecting the ports on Spain’s Atlantic Vigo coastline with the North Sea and the Irish Sea, considering the port of

18 Adjusted capacity by origin port: Due to the fact that the load capacity RAIL FREIGHT SERVICES allocated to a port does not coincide with the maximum capacity of the vessel on certain routes, the concept of adjusted capacity has been used. The present publication provides the national and international rail freight This figure is the result of applying a weighting factor to the total capacity services with origin and destination at any rail terminal at port. of the vessel.

The following information details the current rail model in Spain as well as the rail freight companies that are current offering rail freight services.

Adjusted capacity by destination country: The concept of adjusted capacity also applies when considering the capacity by country of Rail freight service providers destination, using a weighting factor which distributes total TEU and line metres among calls by country destination. • Commercialisation: · Rail freight operator: a company that organises and sells rail freight transport and is responsible for it. The company may have its own locomotive or need to contract one from a rail company. Concerning SSS services with interoceanic call, as the ultimate purpose of these lines is to transport freight between large geographical regions · Entitled Candidate: a company that may directly request rail slots (e.g. Far East-Mediterranean line), a correction factor of 0.1 is added to the for new freight transport traffic from Adif, although the company must foregoing adjustment ratio to calculate adjusted capacity. The correction contract the locomotion from rail companies, the only authorised factor stems from the hypothesis that only 10% of freight will be bound for companies where the safety conditions and professional skills required the ports studied by LinePort. by the Rail Sector Act are concerned.
