          The Competitive Landscape<\/h2>\n

          In short, without polemics: what alternatives exist in the area and what makes GPO different.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

          Capacity ~6,000 tons, built 1999\/2000, draft -7 m. Low automation, old equipment. Difficult rail operation \u2014 single-arm ramp, multiple maneuvers required for each wagon.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

          Capacity 15,000 tons, but only one 5,000 t tank in operation. Built 2004, low automation. No railway, only road access. ~50 km from Constan\u021ba, with longer transport times, especially in summer. The basin cannot be dredged \u2014 vessels with max. 3,000\u20133,500 t actual capacity (although the quay theoretically allows 5,000 t).<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

          Planned capacity 5,000 t (1 tank), road and rail dispatch. In the association agreement phase, followed by CU and approvals. Exclusivity for a single trader for 10 years. Commissioning delayed by at least 2 years compared to GPO. State ownership \u2192 reduced commercial flexibility.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#199243″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”center” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” padding_top=”70″ padding_bottom=”70″][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
