Durrës Projects and Construction Updates
Technically impossible. It is shallow and it cannot manage ships over a certain limit to be a big port. Vlora port on the other hand can manage up to 340.000t ships. I will supply a full technical analysis later on.FR said:I read an article in Gazeta Shqiptare a while back on a project to develop Durres Port into a Giant Industrial Port for all SEE.
The idea is to make Durres Port the largest in South-Eastern Europe and a key link of import-export for the region.
Let's not forget that once Durres-Prishtine highway is finished in 2008 not only do we have links to Italy but Central Europe as well since Prishtina points towards CE.

it's nice because it starts to bring investment there but like FR said before it can mess up the enviornment. imagine if an oil spill were to happen. then we're fucked.
btw the daily capacity of the AMBO oil pipeline is about 750,000 barrels per day.
Don't forget the Bar port in Motnenegro - direct rail link to Belgrade, Budapest, etc. etc.lakerdar123 said:i though durres was meant to become the largest ferry port in the balkans. i wouldn't see a reason for it to become the largest port in general in the balkans.
I think if there was a port further south of Bar that is connected to Europe, I am pretty sure alot of companies would take advantage of that.Podgoricanin said:Don't forget the Bar port in Motnenegro - direct rail link to Belgrade, Budapest, etc. etc.
