HighlightsThe Port of Venice is considering the issues related to the creation of an offshore island hub with container terminal, an oil terminal, and an onshore terminal at Porto Marghera. This paper describes the economic environment and the operational options that were evaluated.The selected concept for the offshore terminal is Automated Straddle Carriers and for the onshore Terminal Electric Rubber Tyred Cranes.The functional requirements for a potential operator in terms of equipment and operations can be met in a realistic, flexible and economically feasible manner.

    AbstractThe Venice Port Authority (VPA) is examining the issues related to the creation of an offshore island hub with container terminal, an oil terminal, and an onshore terminal at Porto Marghera (named Montesyndial) and the methods for transferring containers from one terminal to the other. RHDHV is supporting VPA as part of the above study with the specific task to define the equipment, handling systems and layouts for the two terminals: the offshore container terminal and Montesyndial. This article describes the challenges, methods and options that were considered in order to arrive at the layouts and equipment selection for the two terminals. It is demonstrated that for the offshore terminal it is possible to apply an fully automated operating concept, based on currently available equipment solutions, which can achieve a reasonable throughput capacity in a restricted available footprint. At the same time the proposed solution achieved a significant reduction in the cost per TEU of the project, including equipment Capital and Operational Expenditures.
