  1. A SUCCESS STORY ON SHORT SEA SHIPPING AS AS A DERIVATIVE OF COMBINED TRANSPORT RO-RO LINES BETWEEN TURKEY AND ITALY

  2. BASIC TERMINOLOGY

  3. CARRIAGE OF GOODS BY AT LEAST TWO DIFFERENT MODES OF TRANSPORT. (ECMT DEFINITION) MULTIMODAL TRANSPORT:

  4. INTERMODAL TRANSPORT: • USAGE OF TWO OR MORE MODES OF TRANSPORT • SAME LOADING UNIT • NO HANDLING OF THE GOODS WHILE CHANGING MODES • INTEGRATED TRANSPORT CHAIN (ECMT DEFINITION)

  5. COMBINED TRANSPORT: MEANS OF TRANSPORT WHERE ONE (PASSIVE) TRANSPORT UNIT IS CARRIED BY ANOTHER (ACTIVE) UNIT WHICH PROVIDES TRACTION AND CONSUMES ENERGY. (ECE/FALL DEFINITON) INITIAL AND FINAL LEGS OF THE PASSIVE UNIT: BY ROAD TRANSPORT

  6. SHORT SEA SHIPPING (SSS) A SUSTAINABLE DERIVATIVE OF INTERMODAL TRANSPORT CHAIN, INCLUDING TRANSPORT OVER THE WATERWAYS. • WATER-BASED TRANSPORT OF GOODS AND PASSENGERS ON A ROUTE, • AT LEAST ONE SECTION OVER THE SEA OR THE OCEAN, • GEOGRAPHIC DEFINITION: • ENCOMPASSES THE BALTIC STATES, OVER SCANDINAVIA AND ICELAND, VIA THE UK AND WESTERN EUROPE TO THE IBERIAN PENINSULA AND THE WHOLE OF THE MEDITERRANEAN (INCLUDING NORTH AFRICA AND THE BLACK SEA). • NEW AND DYNAMİC DERIVATIVE PERSPECTIVE, COVERING A MUCH WIDER TERRITORY THAN THE FORMER ‘COASTAL NAVIGATION’.

  7. ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY SHORT SEA SHIPPING AS A DERIVATIVE OF COMBINED TRANSPORT

  8. 1) A facility providing more flexibility to users as well as service providers (operators) the ability to mobilize at faster rates.

  9. 2) An environmentally friendly form of transport. (in harmony with sustainable development of transport policies)

  10. 3) A safe mode of transport. Decreases the probability of an accident occuring by more than 65% when compared to conventional road transport.

  11. 4) SSS offers the most reliable service (Just in time delivery)

  12. 5) Rationalization and optimization of services. (efficiency in operations and minimized operational costs)

  13. 6) Minimized depreciation costs of passive transport units. Savings up to 23% in the whole transport chain.

  14. 7) Reduction in bureaucratic procedures and minimization of documentation.

  15. 8) Facilitation of bonus road transport permits through utilization of combined transport facilities by Ministries of Transport of various countries.

  16. 9) Balancing traffic among different modes of transport, thus providing a useful tool to achieve public tolerance towards transport in general. (Contribution to sustainable transport policy)

  17. 10) SSS imposes minimal investment and maintanence costs on Governments. Utilization of “nature made” highways “MOTORWAYS OF THE SEA”

  18. EVOLUTION AND FUTURE OF COMBINED TRANSPORT IN EUROPE

  19. Breakthrough during 60’s with the introduction of containers. • 40.000 tons container vessel unloaded with 750 man-hours. • Similar vessel unloaded through traditional methods with 24.000 man-hours. • Container traffic in the Atlantic Ocean in 1970: 6 millions TEU. • Container traffic in the Atlantic Ocean today: 165 millions TEU.

  20. Share of combined transport in the EU today: 4% • Growth forecast of combined transport in the EU 2001-2010: 100% • Growth forecast of road transport in the EU 2001-2010: 38% • (2001 White Paper: “Time To Decide”)

  21. FACTORS IMPEDING THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMBINED TRANSPORT AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

  22. Development of policies discouraging cost advantage on the road transport side. • Provision of effective incentives and subsidies by the Governments on SSS. • (Declined Port Charges, Supply Of Tax Free Fuel For Motor Vessels+Motor Vehicles etc.) • Equal treatment for inland navigation and short sea shipping.

  23. Lack of harmonization in documentation – paper dependency. • Standardization of loading units and enlargement of terminal facilities. • Commitment on the railway services. • -State Owned Companies: Managers of infrastructure and operators at the same time. • -Independency of slot allocations from the railway operator.

  24. General concensus on an overall public policy on combined transport. • Divergent interests on the development of continent wide solutions.

  25. Operations: • Equal opportunity on the market for rail, road, inland water ways and short sea shipping. • Secure access to rail way networks. • Harmonization and simplification of legal regulations and administrative procedures.

  26. Financial Measures: • Financial assistance for certain operational costs. • Granting partial or total exemption from taxes, tolls and fees for vehicles engaged in combined transport. • Provision of incentives for private sector indulging in Combined Transport and derivatives.

  27. Regulatory Measures and Controls: • Liberalization of initial and final road hauls. (Abolishment of all quota systems) • Exemptions from certain restrictions, traffic bans. • Customs and border control operations at loading and unloading points. • Reliable schedule times. • Standardization and simplification of documentation. • Increase of maximum permissible weights for initial and final legs of road haulage.

  28. Monitoring of the market: • Measures to ensure coherent and reliable data. • United information centers. • Inventory of bottlenecks hindering development of combined transport.

  29. Co-operation and Innovation: • Close co-operation among combined transport operators. • Efforts for competitive, transparent prices. • Longer terminal working hours. • Real time monitoring of combined transport movements for clients through electronic information systems.

  30. A SUCCESS STORY: SHORT SEA SHIPPING WITH RO-RO VESSELS BETWEEN TURKEY AND ITALY

  31. EVOLUTION OF THE LINE Concept developed in 1992 as a result of internal conflicts occured in the former Yugoslavia.

  32. Leasing of two vessels from the state-owned Ro-Ro Company in 1993 providing a utiliziation guarantee of 70%. Foundation of a Ro-Ro Company in 1993 with participation of road transport operators as share holders. Purchase of the first two vessels UN Transfer and UN Transporter with 140 trailer capacity, speed 16,5 knots. Purchase of two further vessels; UN Denizcilik, UN Ekinci in 1994. Capacity: 135 trailers, Speed: 19 knots. Purchase of UN Saffet Bey and UN Princess in 1996 and 1997 with 160 trailer-capacities and 16 knots speed. Purchase of 6 more vessels during the period 2000-2002 with capacities ranging from 165 to 200 trailers and speeds upto 22 knots.

  33. Purchase of 4 more vessels in the years of 2005, 2006 with capacities ranging 200-240 trailers and speeds upto 23.5 knots.

  34. Inception of further Ro-Ro Lines in the Blacksea and Agean/Med AreaBlacksea:Samsun-Novorrossisky Line: 2 vessels, Capacity: 50 vehiclesAgean/Med Area:Çeşme-Trieste Line: 4 vessels, Capacity: 103, 160 vehicles

  35. CURRENT CONFIGURATION OF THE RO-RO LINES AND RO-RO VESSELS

  36. DEVELOPMENT OF THE TURKEY-ITALY RO-RO LINES Number of Vehicles 2003 10 M. 2004 10 M. 2004 (EST) Source: RODER-Ro-Ro Vessel Operators and Combined Transporters’ Association, 2004

  37. The total number of vehicles carried by Ro-Ro vessels through ports of Turkey to Trieste was 12.500 in the year 1993 and this has increased to 85.000 in the year 2003. Anticipated figure for 2004: 93.000 vehicles.

  40. EFFICIENT TRANSPORT: SEMI-TRAILER ACTIVITY Source: RODER-Ro-Ro Vessel Operators and Combined Transporters’ Association, 2003 57% OF THE VEHICLES TRANSPORTED BY RO-RO VESSELS FROM TURKEY TO EUROPE ARE SEMI-TRAILERS.

  41. TODAY, 65% OF ALL ROAD TRANSPORT ACTIVITY DESTINED TO WESTERN EUROPE IS REALIZED VIA RO-RO LINES.

  42. MAIN ROAD TRANSPORT ROUTES FROM TURKEY TO EUROPE 530 KM 2016 KM 2154 KM 1928 KM

  43. ACTORS TAKING ROLE IN THE SHORT SEA SHIPPING OPERATION BETWEEN TURKEY AND EUROPE SPECIFIC APPLICATION:

  44. Over the years trucking activity gained momentum and today almost 100 Turkish road transport companies are located in Trieste. Turkish tractor units are lodged in the Port of Trieste as per a bilateral agreement between Turkey and Italy. End result paved the way to trucking (transport of semi-trailer units only via Ro-Ro vessels) Semi-trailers are then coupled with tractor units located in Trieste and carrying goods to various destinations in Europe. Today almost 57% of vehicle activity in Ro-Ro vessels is composed of semi-trailer trucking. 1) SERVICE UTILIZERS (ROAD TRANSPORT OPERATORS )

  45. 2) SERVICE PROVIDERS: A) RO-RO OPERATORS: • 3 Ro-Ro Operators • 13 vessels • One common destination in Italy: Trieste • Number of vehicles carried during a decade (1993-2003): 560.000 • Total Capacity: 2.114 Vehicles • Total Tonnage: 282.367 Gross Tons • Total Lane Meters supply: 33.234 Lane Meters

  46. Forwarding of customs documents two days prior the arrival of the vessel. • Time saving for processing of documentation. • Truck ready to go once disembarked from the vessel. • Electronic means of transferring customs documents under study. • Transparent system through electronic means for clients.

  47. Located in the Ports of Trieste and Istanbul, tugmaster operators are embarking and disembarking semi-trailer units to/from the Ro-Ro vessels onto the TIR parking terminals. 2) SERVICE PROVIDERS: B) TUGMASTER OPERATORS:

  48. Vessels utilized in the existing Ro-Ro lines are non ro-pax type. (unaccompanied transport) 12 cabins exist for drivers of refrigerated vehicles. All other drivers are carried by means of air transport to Ljubljana and backwards. Three airbus (A 310 type) aircrafts are utilized for this purpose. In the year 2003, a total of 37.500 drivers were carried from Istanbul to Ljubljana and return. 2) SERVICE PROVIDERS: C) AIRLINE OPERATOR:

  49. Once drivers land in the Ljubljana Airport, drivers are then carried to the Port of Trieste by buses and return 2) SERVICE PROVIDERS: D) BUS OPERATOR:

  50. 2) SERVICE PROVIDERS: E) ROLLING RAIL OPERATOR: Rolling Railway Following The Ro-Ro Route Villach-Wels Line • Established in April 1997. • Number of trains operating per day: 7 Trains • Capacity of each train: 18 vehicles • Booking Facility: through Representative of the Ro-Ro operators in Trieste.
