GRAIN HUB AT THE HEART OF THE BALTIC REGION

An ideal geographical location relative to Latvian, Lithuanian, Russian and Ukrainian markets and proximity to Europe enable our customers to successfully use our terminal as a central Hub for accumulation of shiploads and consolidated loads.

Today, our customers can plan long-term product procurement programmes not only in these countries, but also in Russian ports Saint Petersburg, Ust-Luga, Kaliningrad.

LTB is planning to develop a programme of fast and cost-effective deliveries from Russian ports on River Sea class vessels, with an option of extra loading to warehouses of our customer and directly to the ship.

THREE PANAMAX AT ONCE

Only our terminal and no-one else will be able to load 3 PANAMAX class ships at once already in 2019-2020, with prospects of loading 6 large-capacity ships and 4 - 5 ships up to 5000 mt

Berth No. 51 – will be 14 m deep in 2019

Berth No. 52 (for extra loading) with 14 m depth will be built by the port in 2019

Berth No. 51 A with 12 m depth will be made longer in 2019-2020.

Other berths (on the map) will be built upon necessity with public investment or private investors with public compensation.

POTENTIAL OF 5 MILLION TONS and MORE

Today our berths and warehousing capacities are 330,000 tons of simultaneous storage and transhipment in individual months reaches 400,000 tons per month with a very extensive and unparalleled range of cargo and number of customers.

The planned increase in berths and warehousing capacities to over 400,000 mt will allow us to reach cargo turnover of 5 million tons per year very easily and with a very large range of goods.

If the range of goods reduces, we will be able to increase our throughput even more.

LARGE INVESTMENTS AND HIGH POTENTIAL

An international tender is announced for further dredging of the Liepaja Port and the depth of the port in 2019 will reach 14-14.5 m allowing to load full Panamax class ships, without extra loading in a roadstead, as it happened earlier.

About 140 million euros were invested in the port infrastructure by the state and the European Union earlier, and today 40 million more are invested in dredging, extra loading berth, railroads and other.

Apart from the existing territorial reserve near the deep-water channel, our terminal has a unique possibility to extend its territory for about 50 hectares, with return of investments from the state.

UNIQUE INDUSTRIAL AND WAREHOUSING COMPLEX NEAR THE HARBOUR IN A SPECIAL ECONOMIC AREA.

Our industrial and warehousing complex near the harbour (100,000 mt of storage and more) provides our customers with a unique possibility to organise any manufacturing like grain, soya, rape, sunflower processing and so on in ready-to-use premises and infrastructure within the shortest time possible and with minimum costs.

Tax benefits in the special economic area accelerate the return of investments.
