DUES FOR SLUDGE AND OILY BILGE WATER

Sludge from vessels arriving from European ports, up to 11 m3

0,17 SEK/GT

Sludge from vessels arriving from non-European ports, up to 11 m3

0,27 SEK/GT

Sludge exceeding 11 m3

2 300 SEK/m3

Vessels with a minimum ESI score of 30 points or at least CSI-class 4 will be granted a 10% discount on the port infrastructure dues, based on GT.

Vessels that bunker at least 30% fossil-free fuel of their annual consumption get an additional 10% discount. The condition for receiving the new environmental discount is that the fossil-free fuel must be bunkered in Gothenburg. The purpose of the new environmental discount is to speed up the transition to more climate-neutral shipping and is therefore planned to last a number of years.

The discount is given retroactively upon receipt of documentation showing:
– The amount of fossil-free fuel bunkered in Gothenburg (X thousand tonnes per year)
– The vessel’s total annual consumption of bunkered fuel (Y thousand tonnes per year)

CALCULATION MODELS
In 2025, a vessel with a GT of 50,000 bunkered X thousand tonnes of fossil-free fuel in Gothenburg. The vessel’s 2025 bunker consumption totals Y thousand tonnes. If X/Y is > 0.3 a discount of 10% of paid-in Port infrastructure dues is repaid.

The number of port calls during the year × 50,000 GT × current port dues (price/GT) × 0.1 = Retroactive discount.

1 - 2 calls per week and service

1,53 SEK/GT

3 - 6 calls per week and service

1,25 SEK/GT

7 or more calls per week and service

0,82 SEK/GT

Dues are based on a system of progressive banding, i.e. the first two calls for one service (as recognised by the Port Authority) are charged at the 1–2 calls per week band rate. For the next call during that week, the charge is at the 3–6 calls per week band rate, etc. The term “week” refers to a calendar week, and from Monday–Sunday.

The due level for RORO vessels is designed to reflect the nature of liner traffic and encourage high frequency for intra-European transport. The calls are characterized by large cargo capacity and high capacity utilization. The frequency discount is designed to enhance competitiveness compared to land-based transport.
