Production indicators for 2022
The total volume of cargo transshipment in 2022
by Batumi Oil Terminal LLC and Batumi Seaport LLC amounted to 7.6 million tons, which is 1.3
million tons higher than the same indicator for 2021.
In particular, the volume of oil transshipment,
petroleum products, and gas increased by 0.4 million tons compared to 2021 and
amounted to 1.9 million tons. The increase in transshipment volumes is
associated with an increase in the volume of transshipment of dark oil products
of Kazakhstani origin, as well as the continued cooperation with Tengizchevroil
LLP on the transshipment of oil and liquefied petroleum gas.
The volume of dry cargo transshipment amounted
to 1.7 million tons, which is 0.5 million tons more than in 2021, due to an
increase in the transshipment of urea and raw sugar.
The container terminal handled 119 thousand TEU
in 2022, which is 20 thousand TEU. The TEU is higher than in 2021, which was
due to the redirection of the COSCO container line from the port of Poti to the
port of Batumi and an increase in the car market from the USA.
