How can we be of service?

FOREWORD

Welcome to the sixth edition of

the port handbook for the Port

of Oulu. This handbook will give you a

helpful summary of the main features

and key advantages of our port, as well as

reviewing the most recent developments

and looking at our future strategy.

We have continued to enhance the port’s

infrastructure by investing in quays, storage

areas and equipment. With cargo traffic still

growing and new types of cargo passing

over our quays, we have responded to

the need for greater capacity by building

new terminals as well as upgrading and

extending our existing facilities.

Fairway

We are also looking to accommodate

larger vessels by providing a new, deeper

fairway with a minimum depth of 12.0

metres compared with the existing fairway,

which is dredged to 10.0 metres.

In recent years, we have seen a significant

growth in traffic related to new industrial

projects in northern Finland, particularly

in the energy and mining sectors. With

new wind farms and nuclear power plants

coming on stream, and a cluster of metal

ore mines being opened or reopened, there

is a huge potential demand for specialist

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

cargo handling, storage and transportation

services in the Port of Oulu. As well as

handling imports of project cargo for

construction sites, we are very much in the

market to handle large volumes of bulk

ore exports. One of the main incentives for

creating a new fairway is that it would allow

deeper-draught vessels such as bulk ore

carriers to access our port.

World-class

Meanwhile, the Port of Oulu continues

to provide high tech cargo handling and

storage solutions for Oulu’s world-class

papermaking sector and other major

customers.

When it comes to green technology, Oulu

is very much at the cutting edge. A good

example is the ‘cold ironing’ system, now

installed in the Port of Oulu, that allows

vessels to plug into our own electric grid

rather than relying on diesel auxiliary

engines for power.

In all these activities, our constant goal

is to respond quickly and with maximum

efficiency to the needs and demands of our

customers. I hope this handbook will give

you some insight into the many ways in

which the Port of Oulu can respond to your

needs and add value to your business.

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

The Port of Oulu is a leading multi-service port in the northern Gulf of Bothnia. Its strategic location has made it a natural gateway for trade and commerce in northern Finland. With links across Scandinavia and Europe, the port handles a wide range of unitised cargo as well as dry and liquid bulks.

Operating all year round, the Port of Oulu is kept open by modern and efficient icebreakers. Most of its annual cargo throughput of 3.6 million tonnes is raw materials and finished products for the forest products industry. The port also handles significant volumes of chemicals, fuel oils and construction materials.

Always looking to diversify, Oulu is positioning itself to handle the complex range of project cargoes associated with the various large energy and mining projects starting up in the north of Finland. In addition to initial plant set-up, the port hopes to benefit from maintenance contracts as well as handling exports of mined minerals. To attract these cargoes, the port is looking to improve its infrastructure and facilities in order to provide the best logistics services in the region.

NETWORKS

Oulu stands at the centre of a vast

market area in the Barents and northern

Scandinavian countries. As one of the

most northerly ports in the Gulf of Bothnia,

it offers ready access to existing and

emerging markets with a proven and

reliable transport network.

There are regular shipping services from

Oulu to other parts of Europe along with

good rail and road connections to markets

in Scandinavia and Russia. Markets in the

Far East can also be accessed via Russia.

Oulu’s international airport is the second-

busiest in Finland.

In fact, networks from Oulu extend

right across the globe, with seamless

intermodal services to minimise delay and

improve competitiveness.

AUTHORITy

The Port of Oulu is a municipal harbour

managed on a day-to-day basis by the

Port Authority of Oulu. Employing a team

of 27 staff, the port authority has sections

to dealing with administration, harbour

services, cranes, maintenance, and tugs

and icebreakers.

Ongoing investment has allowed the

port to stay ahead of the competition and

continue to provide first-rate services on

which the region’s industrial sectors can

rely. The port has moved into dedicated

container handling services and built

extensions to existing quays, thus

delivering key advantages to its customers.

And there is much more still to come.

In 2012 new private terminals will open

in the port area to handle bitumen and

cement. A new deeper fairway will be

constructed and additional storage areas

will be provided. There are plans for more

deepwater quays to cope with the expected

demand.

One of the other challenges ahead for the

Port of Oulu will come in 2013, when it is

due to be converted into a limited company

as required by Act of Parliament.

NORTHERN gATEWAy6

OPPORTUNITIES

In recent years, northern Finland has

attracted a lot of investment, mainly in the

energy, mining and logistics sectors, thus

generating new job opportunities.

One of the largest projects is a nuclear

plant in Pyhäjoki for the power company

Fennovoima Oy. This will require huge

volumes of construction materials to be

brought to Finland from other countries.

The Port of Oulu is well prepared to handle

this traffic, while the City of Oulu can

offer a high-quality living and operating

environment for the various contractors.

Several mining projects are under way, too,

in northern Finland, having reached the

stage of preliminary investigation, planning

or implementation. These projects will

have major transport and logistics needs

in terms of construction, export of ore and

maintenance contracts. The Port of Oulu is

ready and able to meet these needs.

Other large energy projects are planned in

the Arctic Ocean.

HERITAgE

The City of Oulu is over 400 years old and

owes much of its wonderful heritage and

success to the abundant natural resources

in the area.

Over the centuries, salmon, tar, forest

products and chemicals have all been

lucrative sources of trade. At one time,

Oulu was home to Finland’s largest

merchant fleet. It achieved worldwide

fame as a tar exporter and was a centre of

shipbuilding in the 19th century.

Today, its expertise in logistics and

transport is without equal, while the city

has become famous for its pace-setting

electronics and other technological

companies.

OUTLOOK

Thanks to the positive and forward-thinking

attitude of the Port of Oulu, combined with

the energy and enthusiasm of the people of

northern Finland, the region is looking to a

bright future. Investment, both in the port

and further afield, is widespread and there

is plenty of optimism in the port and in the

wider region.

By 2020 the port’s total traffic volume is

expected to rise from current levels of 3.6

million tonnes to nearly 7 million tonnes.

There are certainly significant changes ahead.

By investing in infrastructure and services,

the port has demonstrated its willingness

to listens to its customers and potential

customers and provide the facilities to

handle an increasingly diverse range of

cargoes with ease and efficiency.

Leading multipurpose port with complete range of facilities

The Port is Oulu is the leading port in the Baltic for handling forest products and unitised cargo. Its three main harbours of Oritkari, Nuottasaari and Vihreäsaari are all road and rail linked and handle more than 500 ship calls each year. The fourth harbour in the city centre, Toppila, is ceasing operations in 2012 and will be redeveloped for commercial and residential use.

TERMINALS10

ORITKARI

Oritkari is the largest and most important

harbour in Oulu with a focus on general

cargo and container handling. Most of the

port’s traffi c in forest products is handled

at Oritkari. Products are brought directly

from Stora Enso’s Oulu Mill to warehouses

in the harbour ready for export.

Both ro-ro and lo-lo vessels are handled

across two quays, North Quay and Main

Quay, with a total length of 515 metres.

Stora Enso’s products are shipped in both

standard containers and oversized SECUs

(Stora Enso Cargo Units).

Oritkari has 13 warehouses operated

by Herman Andersson Oy with a total

capacity of 81,000 square metres. There

is also 50,000 square metres of open

storage, 500 square metres of bonded

storage and 1,100 square metres of heated

warehousing for containers.

NUOTTASAARI

The Nuottasaari harbour specialises in

handling large volumes of raw materials

for the paper industry such as carbonate,

kaolin chalk, salt and lumber. Talc is

also loaded using a belt conveyor at the

southern end of the quay, while other

cargo is loaded by mobile cranes.

Nuottasaari has a total quay length of

557 metres with depths alongside of 6.4

metres and 9.5 metres. The fl ow of the

Oulujoki River keeps it free of ice for most

of the winter.

The harbour has undergone major

improvements in 2010. The quay and

adjacent areas were renovated and

drainage improved, leading to higher

effi ciency and operational standards.

VIHREÄSAARI

On the opposite bank of the Oulujoki,

the Vihreäsaari harbour is the port’s

fastest growing area. It handles mainly

dry and liquid bulks and is undergoing a

development programme as operations in

the area are increased.

Baltic Bulk Oy operates a dry bulk terminal

handling bio energy products, food industry

products and products for the chemical

industry. Baltic Bulk is also constructing a

bitumen terminal in the harbour.

Liquid bulks such as imports of refi ned

oil products and exports of formic acid

on behalf of Kemira are also handled at

Vihreäsaari.

In addition, Finnsementti is moving its

cement handling operations from Toppila

to Vihreäsaari.

Vihreäsaari harbour has a total quay

length of 222 metres with 10.0 metres

depth alongside.

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

Container handling remains a core activity

The Port of Oulu’s container terminal is currently handling more than 30,000 teu each year. Throughput has risen dramatically over the past decade as the port has focused on providing more improved equipment and infrastructure as part of its long-term strategy to become a regional container hub. Oulu is widely regarded as the leading container gateway in the Gulf of Bothnia and a key player in the intermodal network of the Nordic countries, with excellent, road, rail and sea connections across the region.

CONTAINER HANDLINg12

INVESTMENT

Over the years, the port authority

has invested heavily in new cranes

and other handling equipment at the

Oritkari harbour, where all the container

operations are carried out. It has also

created more storage space in response to

growing demand.

The campaign to become the leading

container port in the northern Gulf of

Bothnia began in 2003 when the port

invested in its fi rst dedicated ship-to-shore

container crane. The existing 50 tonne

crane had already been equipped for

container handling.

Onshore storage and handling operations

have been streamlined and expanded, with

new storage areas to improve effi ciency

and boost capacity. In 2011 a total of 3.5

hectares of new container storage was

completed alongside the West Quay to add

to the existing 4.5 hectares.

EXPERTISE

As well as handling 33,000 teu of standard

containers each year, the port handles

over 16,000 extra-large Stora Enso Cargo

Units (SECUs), which are used for paper

products destined for Europe. In terms of

normal containers, this fi gure corresponds

to nearly 100,000 teu.

Container handling is carried out on a 24/7

basis by the port’s stevedoring company,

Herman Andersson Oy.

The 345 metre main quay at Oritkari can

accommodate two vessels at the same

time. There are tentative plans to extend

this further in the near future to cope with

the expected rise in traffi c as the region

continues to attract signifi cant investment

in new projects and mining operations.

INTERMODAL

There are various reasons for the general

upward trend in container traffi c in Oulu.

One of the main factors is the port’s ready

access to intermodal transport links.

All quays are rail linked and VR Transpoint

(formerly VR Cargo) operates an intermodal

train terminal near the harbour, opened in

2004, allowing combined transport fl ows to

the south of Finland.

Additional links eastward by rail and

northward by road allow the Port of Oulu

to offer fast, effi cient and economical

services to a vast hinterland. And with

regular and reliable liner shipping

services to many of Europe’s hub ports,

Oulu is able to provide container links

worldwide.

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

Multi-service company offers a wide range of cargo handling expertise

Stevedoring in the Port of Oulu is carried out by Herman Andersson Oy, a multi-service company that has been providing expertise and high standards at the port since 1902. The company has its offices and centre of operations alongside the Oritkari Harbour and has been fully owned by its biggest customer, the papermaker Stora Enso, since 2002. Each year, Herman Andersson handles almost 3 million tonnes of cargo including over 1 million tonnes for Stora Enso. It employs a well trained and experienced team of 130 people and offers a range of forwarding,stevedoring and ship agency services.

VERSATILE

With its experience in providing specialised

transport services in the demanding

environment of northern Finland, Herman

Andersson Oy thrives on its close relations

with the port authority and port community

in Oulu and with providers of key services

such as towage (provided by the Port

of Oulu) and pilotage and icebreaking

(provided by other companies).

The company offers versatile and flexible

cargo handling services for all types of

cargoes and vessels. There is continuous

training of personnel to ensure quality and

efficiency.

Herman Andersson, in close co-operation

with the Port of Oulu, is north Finland’s

leading port for forest industry products

and unitised cargo. Further support

for port operations is provided by an

intermodal terminal close to the port and

by rail connected berths.

UNITISED

The handling of unitised cargo is a key

service for Herman Andersson. Each year

the company handles more than 32,500

teu as well as more than 16,000 of the

oversized containers known as SECUs

(Stora Enso Cargo Units), which are used

to transport paper reels and pallets by sea

to markets in Europe.

Stuffing and stripping services are handled

by trustworthy and efficient staff using

modern equipment. Each year, about

12,000 teu are handled in this way, including

chemicals, forest products and mining

equipment as well as consumer products.

In addition, the company handles more

than 30,000 trucks and 10,000 rail wagons

each year. It operates a modern fleet of

shoreside equipment including container

handlers, fork-lift trucks, reach stackers,

self-loading trailers and yard tractors.

Extra-large tugmasters are used to load

the SECUs on board vessels by way of a

dedicated double ramp.

SERVICES

A growth area for Herman Andersson

is handling project cargo for the many

large industrial projects in the area. In

particular, the company is handling more

and more imports of heavy equipment

and machinery for the various mines that

are being opened or reopened in the local

region. It also loads wind turbines on

behalf of the Finnish energy companies.

In addition, Fennovoima’s new nuclear

power plant is going to be built 100 km

from the Port of Oulu.

The activities of Herman Andersson are

focused on the Oritkari Harbour, where

Stora Enso’s products and handled

and stored. The stevedore also partly

owns and operates seven warehouses

at Oritkari, including four dedicated

warehouses for Stora Enso. In addition,

sawn timber from Finnish and Russian

sawmills is loaded for export at Oritkari

harbour.

Bulk cargo operations are performed

mainly at the Nuottasaari Harbour.

Imports such as calcium carbonate slurry,

chalk and short fibre pulp for Stora Enso,

salt for the chemical industry, and wood

chips and roundwood for energy plants

are regularly handled. In addition, talc is

loaded for export.

15

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

opportunities beckon as northern Finland attracts industrial investment

In the coming decade, investments in northern Finland are expected to top €100 billion across a range of sectors including industry, tourism, mining and infrastructure construction. The Port of Oulu is not only investing in improvements and renovations to its infrastructure, but is also hoping, through its upgraded facilities, to win a substantial slice of the major business in project cargo logistics that will arise from these new developments.

OPPORTUNITIES16

MININg

The City of Oulu has been involved in the

mining industry for many years and offers

a pool of expertise through its academic

institutions and businesses. The Oulu

Mining School ensures the availability

of high calibre and professional mine

workers in northern Finland.

New mining projects have sprung up

near Oulu in recent years, while others

are being investigated. The considerable

mineral resources of northern Finland

have encouraged the mining industry to

return to the region.

A gold mine is due to open soon in

Laivakangas. There are also plans to open

other mines at Kevitsa, Taivalkoski and

Kolari.

ENERgy

In what many regard as the project of

the decade, the Finnish power company

Fennovoima is building a €6 billion

nuclear plant at Pyhäjoki, on the Hanhikivi

peninsula, which is due to start generating

electricity in 2020.

The potential economic impact of this

project is huge in terms of new jobs for

the region as well as large volumes of

construction materials, imported from

other countries, which the Port of Oulu is

well placed to handle.

In addition, there are plans for energy

projects in the Arctic Ocean as well as the

opening up of the Northeast Passage, a

new route for energy products from the

northern regions of Russia, bypassing the

Suez Canal.

PREPARED

The new traffic generated by these mining

and energy related operations – both in the

construction phase and (in the case of the

mining industry) in the subsequent flow

of ore and ore concentrates – can be very

competently handled by the Port of Oulu in

combination with the region’s considerable

expertise in various modes of transport.

The Port of Oulu is well prepared to handle

the diverse flow of construction materials

and specialist cargoes that will be needed

for these projects, as well as meeting the

subsequent demand for spare parts which

are often large and awkward to handle.

The port is also investing in bigger

and better facilities to make it more

competitive and attractive by offering

customers the high level of service and

capacity they require.

As well as renovating quays and storage

areas, the Port of Oulu is conducting a

study into dredging a deeper fairway to

the north of the existing fairway. The port

is aware that the depth of the fairway is a

key consideration in its bid to attract these

new traffic flows.

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

Forest products are vital cargo for Port of Oulu

The import and export of forest products at the Port of Oulu accounts for over 50 per cent of its total cargo throughput. While not as dominant in percentage terms as in previous years, it is still showing a gradual year-on-year increase in terms of tonnages. The principal export is paper from the world-class Stora Enso mill in Oulu. In addition, substantial volumes of raw materials are imported and exported as well as imports of unsawn timber and exports of sawn timber. The importance of the forest products industry to the port is underlined by the fact that its sole stevedore, Herman Andersson Oy, is wholly owned by papermaker Stora Enso.

lOCatiON

Unsurprisingly, Oulu’s location close to

the forests of northern Finland led to it

becoming a major centre for the forest

products industry. Today, it is home to

world-leading paper mills and the industry

largely relies on the Port of Oulu for the

import of raw materials and export of

fi nished products.

In recent years there has been a dramatic

recovery in imports of unsawn timber

and especially in exports of sawn timber.

From 2001 to 2011 exports grew by 2,000

per cent to over 100,000 tonnes, leading

the port to construct a new 6,000 square

metre warehouse for sawn timber at the

Oritkari harbour.

Woodpulp from South America is also

imported by Stora Enso for its Oulu mill.

stOra eNsO

Stora Enso is one of the world’s leading

forest industry companies and Oulu Mill

is the company’s second-largest mill as

well as one of its most modern. Oulu Mill

produces pulp and coated paper, which is

exported by sea through the Port of Oulu.

Reels and pallets are transported from

the mill to the quayside warehouse for

loading onto vessels or into the oversized

containers known as SECUs (Stora Enso

Cargo Units).

The SECU has a payload of 80 tonnes,

three times that of a standard 40 ft

container. The fl oor can be fi tted with

profi les for automatic loading and

discharging of paper reels.

seCu

The SECU delivery system came into

operation in Oulu in 2006 and allowed for

much faster and more effi cient loading of

vessels with paper products.

Stora Enso invested in a fl eet of 2,700

SECUs and the Port of Oulu handles over

15,000 SECU movements each year. In

total, about 780,000 tonnes of paper is

handled for Stora Enso each year.

The ro-ro berth in Oritkari harbour was

resurfaced by the Port of Oulu to cope with

the extra weight. The port also installed

a new linkspan and dedicated double

ramp so that two decks can be loaded

simultaneously.

SECUs generally leave the port with

paper products and return with woodpulp,

leading to further cost savings.

19

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

Ongoing investment ensures port can meet future demand

A growth in traffi c volumes through the Port of Oulu in recent years has brought a need for continuous improvements to the port’s infrastructure, leading to investment in quays, storage areas and equipment. While existing areas are being refurbished and extended, new terminals are being built to handle new cargo streams. The Port of Oulu has been following the guidelines and investment objectives laid out in the 2005 General Plan and has nearly fi nished this work.

Oritkari

Phase 1 of the Western Quay in Oritkari

Harbour was completed in October 2011.

A total of about 3.7 hectares of storage

has been provided for project cargo and

containers together with access roads

and a 6,000 square metre warehouse for

sawn timber.

Designed to encourage cargo exports, the

General Plan also includes the building of

new berths plus an additional warehouse

for sawn timber. Timber exports have

grown so fast that existing capacity is

under pressure.

Phase II of the harbour development

is at the planning stage. The work will

be completed in 2012. A detailed and

structured plan is in place and the port is

confident that construction work will follow.

Vihreäsaari

The port is also investing in development

of the harbour, again following a carefully

designed plan. The Vihreäsaari plan covers

the development of an area of 86 hectares,

43 of which are marine side.

One of the main developments in the

Vihreäsaari harbour is the construction of

a cement silo by Finnsementti Oy, which

is moving its operation out of the Toppila

harbour and relocating to Vihreäsaari. The

new silo is scheduled to open in 2012.

In addition, Baltic Bulk Oy is building new

facilities at Vihreäsaari. The company

opened new offices at the harbour in

March 2011 ahead of the construction of a

bitumen and heavy oil storage facility, due

to open in the summer of 2012.

The harbour development plan will enable

the Port of Oulu to respond to the transport

demands of northern Finland and will allow

operators currently active in the area to

expand their activities in the future.

New fairway

The upsurge in major industrial projects

in the mining and energy sectors has

prompted the Port of Oulu to conduct

a study into the construction of a new

fairway for the port, with a maximum

depth of 12.0 metres. The existing fairway

has a depth of 10.0 metres.

In 2008 the port commissioned, at its own

expense, exploratory soundings for a new

fairway in the Gulf of Bothnia, following

preliminary plans drawn up by the Finnish

Maritime Administration.

In 2010 the Finnish Transport Agency drew

up a general plan for the new fairway. This

consisted of deepening the existing fairway

to 12.0 metres, with two alternative routes:

the existing route and one that deviated

36 km to the north of Hailuoto. The new

route proved the more cost-effective of the

two options and the deeper fairway will

become reality when funds are allocated

from the state budget.

The new fairway would enable larger

vessels to enter the port and would open

the way for shippers and the port itself to

offer more competitive and cost-effective

operations.

21

Port of Oulu Handbook, 6th Edition

Oulu provides a safe pair of hands for chemical handling

The import and export of chemical products is a vital cargo traffi c for the Port of Oulu. The region’s paper and pulp industries depend on Oulu for reliable handling of large volumes of liquid chemicals. Large volumes of chemicals such as formic acid from nearby plants are also exported through the port. Liquid bulk cargoes are handled at the Nuottasaari and Vihreäsaari harbours. Various major chemical companies in the region rely on the Port of Oulu to provide safe and reliable handling services.

expertise

The Port of Oulu has a history of expert

handling of chemicals. Liquid bulk

handling services were initially provided to

meet the needs of the region’s paper and

pulp industries. Today, the port handles

imports of raw materials and exports

of fi nished products on behalf of major

producers in the Oulu region.

The principal products handled in Oulu

are imports of carbonate slurry for the

papermaking industry and exports of

formic acid for use in the agricultural,

chemical and textile industries.

Handling of chemicals is focused mainly

on the Nuottasaari harbour, which has

two dedicated berths for tankers. The

main quay was renovated and modernised

during 2010 so that it will continue to

meet the demands of the industry. In

addition, tank containers are handled at

the Oritkari harbour.

One of Oulu’s largest companies is Kemira

Chemicals Oy, a subsidiary of Kemira Oyj,

an internationally renowned producer

employing about 170 staff at its vast

complex to the north of the city. Kemira

Oyj’s business areas are:

• PaPEr – serving the pulp and paper

industries

• watEr – focusing on municipal and

industrial water treatment

• oil anD Mining – providing solutions

for the expanding oil, gas and mining

Worldwide, Kemira Oyj operates in 40

countries and employs about 5,000 people.

prOduCts

Kemira exports formic acid, its derivatives

and hydrogen peroxide through the Port of

Oulu. These products are shipped mainly

in tank containers and 20 ft containers.

Large export volumes of formic acid are

also shipped by tanker.

Hydrogen peroxide is used to bleach

wood and textiles, in water treatment

and in cosmetics. Peracetic acid is also

used as a bleaching agent in the paper

and pulp industry, while formic acid is

used to make textiles more colourful

and wrinkle resistant as well as making

leather softer and more durable. It also

has a diverse range of industrial uses.

Formamide is used as a chemical reactant

in the manufacture of agrochemicals,

pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals.

All products manufactured in Oulu are

made to the highest technological and

environmental standards. The chemical

plants have a minimal environmental

impact on the city.

Northern transport links bring Oulu to the world

Oulu is the largest city in northern Scandinavia, with fi rst-rate access by road, rail, air and sea thanks to a range of integrated transport links. The task of further enhancing this international junction – especially eastwards towards the huge markets in Russia – is a top priority for the Port of Oulu and local developers. In addition to a modern port with liner connections throughout Europe, Oulu has a major rail freight terminal and a fast-growing airport, now the second-largest in Finland.

First-rate sea links from Oulu are

complemented by its excellent road,

rail and air connections. While the city’s

modern and uncongested road network

provides fast domestic links for inbound

cargo, it is the railways that carry most of

the freight further afi eld.

Oulu’s international airport is the second-

busiest in Finland, with over 20 fl ights

per day to Helsinki. A recent expansion

has boosted its capacity to 1.5 million

passengers a year. In addition to regular

50-minute fl ights to and from Helsinki, the

airport now serves a growing number of

international destinations, including Riga

and Tallinn.

rail

The port has direct rail links for general

cargo and container traffi c as well as for

project cargo. All the main harbours are

linked to the national network, with rail

freight services provided by VR Transpoint

(formerly VR Cargo).

In addition to forest products, other

important cargoes going by rail include

chemicals (in containers and tanks) and

also bulk minerals, which are growing in

volume as a result of increased mining in

northern Finland.

A freight terminal was opened close to

the port’s Oritkari harbour in 2007. This

modern combined transport terminal

allows for transloading of goods between

road and rail transport. Freight can be

sent overnight from Oulu to Helsinki for

markets in the south of Finland. The

terminal covers eight hectares and has

three 730 metre loading tracks together

with a 200 metre transloading bay.

markets

A key advantage of the Finnish rail network

is that it shares a common gauge with

Russian railways, so there is no need for

transloading at border points. Russia is

one of Finland’s biggest trading partners

and signifi cant volumes travel in both

directions.

For this reason, there is a strong incentive

in the region to invest in and improve

transport networks in northern Finland,

especially east-west.

Various initiatives have been introduced to

foster trade between the two countries by

providing more and better rail connections.

A direct rail link to markets in Murmansk

and Arkhangelsk is a long-held dream for

shippers on both sides of the border.

Oulu offers direct rail and road links to the

Karelia region of Russia. From there, rail

connections run south from the mining

town of Kostomuksha, while a cut-off line

from Kostomuksha to Murmansk links

Oulu with the Kola Peninsula and north-

west Russia, with access to its potentially

huge natural wealth.

One of the largest marketing projects

carried out by the Port of Oulu was

completed at the end of 2011. Its aim

was to establish better contacts with the

industrial sector of north-west Russia.

Funded by the European Union and

lasting for two years, the project will

continue for a further two years, using the

results achieved so far but extending and

deepening their scope. The project has

involved a lot of travel throughout Russia

and Europe to build a network of useful

contacts.

Another initiative, administered by

the University of Oulu, is the Barents

Logistics 2 project, which aims to increase

awareness of the opportunities to study

and work in the Barents Region. The Port

of Oulu is a participant in this project along

with Luleå University and various offshore

and industry groups in Murmansk.

Oulu is a prosperous city with a

comprehensive network of healthcare,

employment and education services, plus

an efficient business services helping

to generate new jobs in the region by

supporting growth.

The city is home to a diverse range

of sectors including information and

communication technology (ICT), life

sciences, clean technology, trade,

tourism and industry. There is a range

of international businesses providing a

buoyant economy and a strong community

spirit – the ideal formula for business

growth. The City of Oulu is very good at

getting things done.

The region itself offers many advantages

and opportunities. Its business-focused

outlook is complemented by a wide range

of leisure amenities and recreational

activities located in or near the city.

From 2013 the City of Oulu will undergo

a major administrative change as the

municipalities of Haukipudas, Kiiminki,

Oulu, Oulunsalo and Yli-li are due to merge

for form a ‘new Oulu’ in what will be the

largest municipal restructuring of its kind

in Finland.

Easy living

Bounded by the sea and three rivers, Oulu

has a beautiful natural environment. Oulu

is a combination of urban and rural areas

with a bustling city centre, shops, parks

and recreational areas. It all adds up to

a high standard of living in a healthy and

clean environment.

Major investments in the region are under

way or planned in the near future. The

city centre has been earmarked for a new

shopping centre and underground parking.

One of Oulu’s strategic goals is to develop

the city into an attractive area. Tourism

services will be further enhanced as well.

This provides huge business potential,

particularly in the service sector.

Recreational and cultural activities are

important, too. The flat landscape is ideal

for cycling and the regional network of

cycleways is the best in Finland. Oulu is

also one of Finland’s main centres for

dance. There are festivals and art schools,

too, as well as opportunities for trekking,

canoeing and a range of winter sports.

CleaN air

Northern Finland is noted for its clean

air and unpolluted water and Oulu

is no exception, in spite of its high

concentration of industry and transport

systems.

The Port of Oulu and the city’s

industrial sector place a high priority

on environmental care, with measures

including:

• Prevention of air and water emissions

• Prevention of noise pollution

• Management and reuse of waste

• Terminating operations at a site

• Monitoring and reporting of accidents

• More efficient use of energy

• Sustainable development.

The Port of Oulu was one of the first in

northern Scandinavia to achieve ISO 1400,

ISO 9001 and OHSAS 18001 certification.

Record-breaking cargo fi gures underline port’s strong development

Despite a downward trend worldwide, the Port of Oulu enjoyed its second record-breaking year in a row in 2011. Traffi c volumes exceeded 3.6 million tonnes for the fi rst time in the port’s history, a small increase on the 2010 fi gures. The port handled over 33,000 teu of container traffi c and received 514 vessel calls at its four terminals. Forest products still account for the largest cargo sector at the port, and the volume of sawn goods loaded for export has continued to rise. Although total throughout in 2011 was just 0.5 per cent higher than 2010, there was a signifi cant increase in liquid bulks and cement.

growth

In 2011 the Port of Oulu handled an

impressive 3,567,202 tonnes of cargo,

compared with 3,556,378 tonnes in 2010.

As well as being another new record for

the port, it represented a 12.5 per cent

increase over 2009. In 2010 domestic

imports had increased by 32.7 per cent

and foreign imports by 5.8 per cent, while

foreign exports increased by 14.1 per cent.

In 2011, however, the average figures

remained stable over the port’s diverse

cargo portfolio. Any deficit was made up by

a 30 per cent increase in cement imports,

triggered by the high level of construction

under way in Oulu.

Imports represent just over 60 per cent

of total volumes with 2,223,825 tonnes

imported in 2011 compared with 1,328,377

tonnes exported.

uNitised

The total number of containers handled

by the port in 2011 was 32,606 teu – an

increase of five per cent from 2010.

Exports accounted for 54 per cent and

imports 46 per cent.

By contrast, after a 40 per cent increase

from 2009 to 2010, trailer traffic suffered

a slight decline in 2011 with 1,819 units

handled, down seven per cent.

In addition the port handles large numbers

of Stora Enso Cargo Units (SECUs), the

oversized containers designed by the

papermaker to carry forest products.

In 2011 a total of 15,366 SECUs were

handled, four per cent down from 2010.

prOduCts

The vast majority of bulk products handled

at the Port of Oulu are raw materials for

the forest products industry and exports

of liquid chemicals. Imports of carbonate,

kaolin and cellulose for papermaking

account for almost 70 per cent of all

foreign imports. Carbonate on its own

accounts for 45 per cent of foreign imports.

On the domestic side, the port also

handles incoming fuel and cement.

The largest export by weight is paper

products. In 2011 over 780,000 tonnes

of paper was exported, mainly in SECU

containers, accounting for nearly 60 per

cent of all exports.

In the future, larger volumes of project

cargo and minerals are expected as

various construction projects get under

way and mines restart or expand their

operations.
