Transneft intends to completely abandon the use of Baltic ports

RIA News announces the progress and outcome of a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and the head of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev. The meeting focused on how the work is progressing towards a final rejection of the use of the ports of the Baltic republics by the Russian company. According to Nikolai Tokarev, Transneft is studying the possibilities of Russian ports and is ready to redirect cargo flows from the Baltic states to those with additional loading and unloading facilities.

The news agency quotes Nikolai Tokarev’s statement:

If last year there (in the Baltic States) about 9 million tons of oil products were transshipped, then this year - 5 million. Before the 2018 of the year, in the coming years, we will reduce this freight traffic to the Baltic region to zero. We will load our ports, because there is a surplus of capacities.

Today Transneft is quite actively using the Baltic port in Ventspils, as well as the free port of Riga. It is planned to redirect cargo flows serviced in these Latvian ports to Ust-Luga and Primorsk.

In addition, according to the head of Transneft, the company plans to more actively use the southern ports of Russia - in particular, the port of Novorossiysk to service refinery products in Volgograd and the Krasnodar Territory.

It should be recalled that a few days ago, the Russian company Transneft received orders to refuse delivery and transshipment of oil and oil products to (through) Ukraine.

It is high time. In this way, it is not worth supporting non-friendly states.

[Now we are free]

Well, did the Sprats do their thing? .. The most interesting thing is that our ports were made quietly without unnecessary pathos and ostentation. Not just ports were made, but large transport hubs for receiving various kinds of products with railway and auto interchanges connected to them. Thanks to this incident and a number of others, for example, I understand V.V.P. without any "Cunning plans" and surrealism. If you decide to fight against Russophobia among your neighbors, prepare a base (material) in your own country and then all these midget prostitutes NAKH! .. But not earlier ... The same applies by the way to "Nebratyev" for two years Russia as almost got rid of the "Ruin" goods and also at times strengthened its border in the West. We will give everything in due time, and we will send a sobering "Bream" to the presumptuous prostitute "states", the main thing by this moment is to be independent from them and stronger than them both morally / physically and economically (which we are witnessing when reading this article).
Russia makes such a newfangled religion as "Russophobia" the most expensive religion. Do you want to passionately believe in "Russophobia" and its messiah, the US State Department? -PAYS! .. And here in the minds of the "Mladorusophobes" a cognitive dissonance arises, because the whole meaning of their existence is in economic dependence and geopolitical porcelain, and here for this it is necessary PAY YOUR MONEY ...

Not the Baltic states there are ports and all this infrastructure is taxing, but the most are all russians. And the money for the transshipment of goods and oil products, including, set themselves quite acceptable, not like ours in our native Russia. Therefore, it is not our ports that use it, and not only for transshipment of oil products. So the use, for example, of Ventspils (which is half the Russian city, and the port generally operates mainly Russians; Latvians are in state and local government bodies)), this, among other things, also a certain support of compatriots in Latvia.
And the idiotic pricing policy of the owners of our ports also plays a role. For example, Finnish ports for receiving goods from abroad - from the USA, Japan, Southeast Asia, cost 30 percent cheaper than ours. And this is taking into account both customs and transportation from Finland.

[Novgorod]

There is some truth. But the Balts receive taxes in their treasury.

Ust-Luga and Primorsk are almost the same oil products. But I still talked about ports.
And another thing is surprising - even last or two years ago, additional capacities in our ports for transshipment of oil products appeared, but only a couple of years later the head of Transneft plans to fully load them. In some ways, this is an obvious slyness - either our ports are really much more expensive, or these capacities have not yet been brought to mind. And most likely - both!

There were no oil terminals, the ports of Ust-Luga and Primorsk worked very poorly for export - they were built, and the total turnover of the ports increased by only 10% ... And should have increased by an order!
Yes, this means that the facilities built are NOT at all loaded!
And now the question is - why is this so?

[Mikhail3]

Contracts Already concluded contracts. Shovel them - lose a lot of money. So the general reorientation to Ust-Luga will occur as the old agreements expire. Plus the detuning of logistics, also not two days. Why boil and spoil the work for yourself and people? Quietly going down the hill ...

We wrote earlier that we are building ports for this. One good thing is that if such thoughts did not reach through the head before, they helped to shove these Russophobic watered regimes into our `` economists '' through the well ...

I don’t think there is any kind of politics here. Freight turnover is now dropping everywhere, ports are losing profit from this, and there is no sense in feeding the Baltic states when they want to eat their own.

That's not news.
This ceased to be news when the construction of the largest logistics center in Ust-Luga began.
Such an infrastructure is a gigantic cost, and it is simply not done "to be".
Those. the decision that sprats should become independent from our transit and transit money should remain inside our economy was made several years ago.
And the junction in Ust-Luga is really powerful, there are hundreds of kilometers of railway tracks alone.
Siemens, among other things, categorically does not want any sanctions - they have a very large contract there for the supply of automation equipment for motion control, sorting, etc.
The node came out ultra-modern and with high capacity.

[Reptiloid]

I would like to add that in addition to the cargo of Transneft, after all, there are a lot of other various cargoes. It is nice to know that our management and take care of them, even if this happens as soon as possible, otherwise the container cargoes served by Tallinn are still 50% Riga also serves Russian container cargo. Yes, and Finland has always been also several ports for a long time. In this regard, in December 2015, a multifunctional transshipment complex Bronka opened on the territory of Lomonosov - this is the St. Petersburg administration for container cargo and so far it is half loaded ...

Despite all the political conflicts, the life of the Baltic economy throughout the post-Soviet years was ensured only thanks to one thing - trade relations with Russia. Russia endured for a long time, called on, admonished, persuaded the Baltic elite, receiving only spit in response. But Enough! There will be no miracle. The freebie is over. Russia will not forgive or forget the mockery that sub-geopolitical mongrel allowed themselves against Russia and the Russians.

[Monster_Fat]

"Sprats" are fed not so much from the oil flow from Russia, but from the sticker of excise stamps on all alcoholic beverages that go to Russia from all over the world and on the supply of such a huge city as St. Petersburg and transit to the Kaliningrad region. Due to its geographical location, the most convenient road for goods to St. Petersburg and back runs through Estonia and there is nothing else to think of. Estonians would have everything completely covered in chocolate if the European Union itself had not "cut" their "legs" by quoting all agricultural products, except for hay. Now the "proud Estonians" can not grow vegetables and fruits and breed milk and meat for supplies to St. Petersburg, as "nizza" - the production banned by the European Union - only hay and only for the European Union. Well, Lithuania has to unfasten a heavy tribute for transit to Kaliningrad, as we used to unfasten kaklam for transit to Sevastopol. It will not be possible to completely stop the flow of goods to and from Russia through the Baltic states for a simple reason - there is a great bureaucratic and procedural complexity of transporting goods by sea for small and medium-sized firms and companies in Russia - it is much easier and cheaper to transport small volumes of goods by road than by sea. Our ports are extremely slow in handling and customs clearance of goods due to bureaucratic delays and corruption. You can't get much luck through Belarus either, since the time and cost of delivering goods from Europe to our heavily populated North-West region is greatly lengthened and, in addition, the roads there have a limited capacity. Well, everyone knows that these Baltic "dwarfs" are a kind of offshore for our near theatrical and mass media "bohemians", and also there are registered many European "daughter companies" that trade with Russia and thus carry out "optimization" of "European" taxes. These curious state formations are almost 100% parasitic on Russia - they receive half of their income from supplies and transit to Russia and back, and the other half they receive from the EU due to their screams about the need to "feed" them, otherwise they will be "captured" and "economically" will be enslaved by "evil" Russia. And so and so, but they feed only at the expense of Russia. Well settled in.

So we cut off their opportunities to earn money in Russia, as we build our port infrastructure. In another way? You can’t just quit the sales market, others will take over, and you are tormented with paying fines for the failure of contracts.
Five years ago, they felt a threat to their transit and tried to promote in the Council of Europe the topic of small Finno-Ugric peoples, allegedly the construction of ports in the Leningrad region threatens their existence. It is interesting that among these small peoples living in Russia there were representatives who "scrawled" a letter of complaint, trying to play a big game for the preservation of the transit of the Baltic states. As you can see, the shot was "blank".

In fact, back in 1993, it was decided to build three new ports in the Leningrad Region in order to reduce dependence on prrrrrrr..balts. However, only in 2000, cargo turnover with the Baltic states began to decrease steadily. I also want to add that the Russian Federation and Belarus fed Ukraine before the crisis thanks to the ports of Odessa and Ilyichevsk. The crisis in Ukraine turned out to be beneficial for the Baltic states.
Well, then, what will not succeed in depriving them of absolutely everything? The main thing is to work to ensure that the thick sandwiches that they ate during the USSR turned into small crackers

[Gormenghast]

2018 is a very significant year. End EU subsidies for equalization. Transit payments will stop. Great Britain will expel the Baltic guest workers (tentatively - maybe sooner, maybe later).

Only the first item leads to two options:
1. A budget deficit of 20% for each country slopokov. Expulsion from the EU due to non-compliance with Maastricht criteria.
2. Cutting off the budget and turning the Baltic tigers into an analogue of Gabon or Somalia.

And the increase in the load of this port by a miserable 10% compared to what it was without an oil terminal - that’s right, a couple of tankers for eye-tracking were loaded - and that’s it! Just to show that the terminal is functioning, that is, only for the sake of dust in the eye. And what other infrastructure do you need to build?

The fact is that both the Baltics and Ukraine have an emergency exit to Russian fuels and lubricants. This is Belarus. She actively receives our oil without any duties and refines in large volumes. And the common borders with Lithuania, Latvia and Ukraine make the "father" into the largest exporter of fuels and lubricants for these countries. Poland is also close. The Belarusian budget is good, but the Russian one is losing.
The only plus is the redirection of "long-distance exports" to Russian ports. There is nothing to pay for transit and use of the ports. Even buying from Belarus you need funds, and the Baltics will have less of them.

Yes, not really ... As you transported oil products to the Baltic States and in transit through it, you can’t even imagine the volumes, so we carry it (believe me, not with bare words) ...
