Batumi port
The Port of Batumi is a significant seaport located in the city of Batumi, Georgia, on the southeast coast of the Black Sea. It is the largest container, ferry, and general cargo seaport in Georgia, with a total capacity of 18 million tons per year and 5 terminals, including an oil terminal, dry cargo terminal, container terminal, railway-ferry crossing, and passenger terminal. The port has a long history dating back to the Roman Empire and is known for its geostrategic and natural advantages, such as its natural deep-water location, which allows large tonnage vessels to enter without crossing a canal and paying canal fees. The port provides a wide range of high-quality services, including cargo transshipment, warehousing, storage, and ship maintenance. It is also used as a major transit port for oil refining in Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan. The port plays a crucial role in the Eurasian and international trade network.
