The final report on US-Italian coal logistics is the joint effort of the US Department of Energy, Office of the Assistant Secretary for fossil energy - assisted by the Office of International Energy Organizations and Policy Development - and the Italian Ministry of Industry. A brief summary of each section of the report is included here. The underlying reasons for preparing this report are the present and potential coal consumption requirements of the Italian industrial sector and the importance of both the variety and rich supply of US coal have for meeting these requirements. The main purpose of the study itself has been to determine the level of significance of various factors on the overall coal trade infrastructure between the two countries. These factors include: quantities, types, and sources of US coal; current and projected Italian coal requirements; US transportation and port infrastructure capabilities to transport coal to export ports and load ocean-going vessels; ocean transport infrastructures; and Italian port and transportation infrastructure capabilities to receive coal imports and transport them to points of industrial utilization. 11 figs., 38 tabs.
