PORT OF PORT OF LISBON
PART I | 1. FOREWORD HARBOUR MASTER
1.1
GENERAL
The Port of Lisbon is located between the River Tagus and the Atlantic Ocean. As it is a
natural port, located in the vast estuary of the Tagus, in a water basin of 32.000ha, sheltered
and deep, its advantages offer the best navigating conditions both for large ships, namely
transoceanic vessels, but also for any nautical sport.
The port of Lisbon is managed by Administração do Porto de Lisboa,S.A. a publicly owned
limited company with jurisdiction over the majority of the estuary and its banks.
Its area of jurisdiction extends from a line drawn between the Tower of the S. Julião da Barra
Fort and the Bugio Lighthouse downstream, to the bridge at Vila franca de Xira upstream.
APL,SA is responsible for controlling shipping in the port in close co-operation with the Port
Captaincy, the Customs service, the Maritime Health Authority and the Aliens and Frontiers
Service. In this role , APL,SA act as the regulator and co-ordinator of all ships and other
users. In parallel, it is also responsible for maintaining the port infrastructures and
supervision of all matters concerning traffic management and environmental protection within
the port area.
The port of Lisbon is well known for its high standards of nautical services, the safe and
smooth handling of shipping and a Vessel Traffic Guidance System of high quality.
The Lisbon Port Authority put great effort in drawing up clear port procedures and
regulations. Subsequently it supervises strictly the observance of the regulations. Over the
years, the perception has grown that a vessel in the port of Lisbon must have her things in
order. Shipping companies that invest in safety and environment appreciate this attitude, as it
allows them to operate faster and cheaper.
At the same time Lisbon is a port where, whenever necessary, every ship receives special
attention and active co-operation in order to fins optimal solutions, of course within the law
and environmental boundaries.
As far as enforcement is concerned, it is our firm believe that preventive action by means of
direct information and support – given on board by our pilots, our inspectors, and by our VTS
operators – is the best way to prevent problems with safety and environment
1.2
PORT REPORT
The estuary of River Tagus, with an extension of 50Km and between 2 and 14Km in width,
offers the Port of Lisbon excellent navigating conditions. The main access channel of the port
has depths of -15,5m ZH and over 1 500 metres of berthing quay with depth between -8 and
-10 m, Lisbon has been for long a harbour of refuge for many ships.
The geo-strategic position of the Portuguese coast, at the crossing of the main maritime
routes of international commerce and on the first European Atlantic front, opens the
possibilities of attracting direct transatlantic traffic, which demands terminals with great
depths, a rare situation which is found at the Port of Lisbon.
Integrated in the transeuropean network of transports, the Port conciliates in its domains, an
important multimodal logistics infrastructure which gives it the advantage of being the
“meeting port” of maritime, railway and road transport.
18
The Port of Lisbon is a large European port with an Atlantic orientation, whose geo-strategic
centrality gives it a high statute in the logistics chain of international commerce and in the
main cruise circuits.
Port activities are developed on both banks of the river. On the Northern bank, the handling
of containerized cargo, Roll-on/Roll-off and the majority of breakbulk cargo is concentrated.
On the South bank, various terminals specialized in liquid and solid bulk can be found.
The port of Lisbon receives also all types of cruise ships, from the smallest to the largest in
the world, that bring some 250 thousand passengers per year.
In addition to the great natural conditions, the ship that anchors in Lisbon has three
passenger terminals located in the centre of the city, with the most modern safety equipment
and a varied offer of services.
The warm weather, the various tourist places, the good international air connections and the
variety of hotels are some of the factors that make of Lisbon a privileged destination
throughout the year.
Featuring a magnificent geographic location, Lisbon is an important port of call for cruises
between the Atlantic Coast and Europe, the western Mediterranean and the north of Europe,
the Atlantic Isles and the north of Africa as well as for Trans Atlantic trips.
Nowadays, the port of Lisbon sees itself as a modern Ibero-Atlantic logistics centre serving
Portugal, and the Spanish hinterland of Galicia and Extremadura as far as Madrid. It is also
one of the most important container transhipment centers for the United States, Africa and
South America, with excellent links to national and international transport logistic networks.
The port of Lisbon is a port for the future. Major investment is planned over the coming
years in improving sea and land access to the port’s terminals, increasing security and
pollution control, improving ship and cargo management information systems, and in
developing new riverside leisure areas. These and another measures will contribute to the
continued prestige of this great port and the services it provides.
1.3
PORT PERFORMANCE
During the first semester of 2008, the Port of Lisbon registered movements of merchandise
superior to seven million tons, a growth of 3.2 percent in relation to the same period in 2007.
The movement of more than 3.7 million tons of granaries was recorded, which represents an
increase of 10.6 percent against the same period in 2007.
Equally, the number of port calls also shows a significant increase. In the first semester of
the current year there were 1.714 port calls versus 1.662 during the first semester of last
year, in other words, an additional 3.1 percent.
Compared to the homologous period of 2007, gross tonnage (GT) demonstrates 16.8%
growth.
Current existing data predicts good results for the current year, signifying the dynamism of
this infrastructure, fundamental for the economic and social development of the region and of
the country.
19
Supported by state-of-the-art technology and systems and in accordance with the most
demanding international codes, the Port of Lisbon is, in terms of safety, side by side with the
top European ports.
The most complete VTMS – Vessel Traffic Management System, the quality management
system implemented in the pilotage services and in the port and maritime traffic control, the
innovative system to assess the cover under the ship’s keel, the powerful systems of
maritime alert, the Internal Emergency Plan, the ambitious environmental management
system, the ISPS certification and the sophisticated system of non-intrusive inspection of
containers (within the scope of the CSI – Container Security Initiative) are merely some of
the instruments that support the extraordinary precision with which safety and environment
are preserved at the Port of Lisbon.

PART III | 7. PORT DESCRIPTION
7.1
GENERAL
The port occupies a large part of the Tagus estuary. Its extensive size and deep waters,
combined with the large number of quays and docks on both banks, enable it to
accommodate practically any type of vessel. The river bed also enables ocean-going ships to
anchor offshore and discharge their cargoes into barges.
All vessels calling at Lisbon benefit from pilotage, tugboats, refuelling services, etc…
The port of Lisbon also has terminals for specialized cargoes on both banks of the river,
enabling it to handle all types of cargo productively. General cargo, container and cruise
liners are generally concentrated in the city, while bulk cargoes are mainly handled on the
south bank and upstream.
7.2

16.6 WASTE
According Marpol 73/78 and EU-directive 2000/59/EC, ports are obliged to ensure reception
facilities for ship-generated waste, including oil residues, noxious liquid substances and
garbage, adequate to meet the ships’ necessities of discharge, without causing them undue
delay.
73
Waste disposal is available on request by the ship’s agents directly to port authority. Based
on data supplied by ship in waste notification form, ship’s agent will fill in the electronic
requisition form.
Regarding the above mentioned Directive and national regulation such as Decree-Law
165/2003, 24th July, the waste disposal is compulsory if there is not enough storage capacity
onboard.
Waste RECEPTION AND HANDLING PLAN
In 2006, Port of Lisbon has implemented its first Port Waste Management Plan, which was
reviewed in 2008. Since than, the plan has been updated and improved regarding better
procedures and tariffs. The aim goals are to be in accordance with laws, assure the
adequate port receptions facilities and promote the waste disposal onshore and not at sea.
This document is available in the following website: www.portodelisboa.pt.
waste collected
Port of Lisbon is available to receive the majority of waste, classified in accordance with the
European Waste List and specified in Marpol.
The following waste can be collected in Port of Lisbon:
- Oily Waste, including sludge, bilge waters, slops, oily rags and other oily residues;
- Garbage, as dry and wet garbage, recyclable waste, food waste and others;
- Sewage, includes black and gray water;
- Hazardous waste, as for example medical waste, prewash slops (chemicals) and
pyrotechnics;
- Cargo waste;
Recyclable materials could be discharged with garbage in the same container, if in separate
bags or boxes, because Port of Lisbon grants afterwards the selection and waste’s recycling.
However to promote the maximum recycling of waste, the ship should store and disposal
recyclables materials separately inside bags or others “containers”, without contamination.
Hazardous waste is also collected in Port of Lisbon, however it is requested that all waste is
correctly separated and identified, to be easier and faster to discharge and remove it from
pier. Please give special attention to medical waste.
Hazardous waste and cargo waste have to be carefully specified before the discharge, in
order to be granted by port authority the adequate reception facilities and give to waste a
legal and environmental friendly destination.
port reception facilities
Port reception facilities are available according to the type and volume of waste to be
discharged and its forwarding. Please check next table.

Operators
Port of Lisbon contracted two operators to collect waste against set tariffs, which may be
obtained from www.portodelisboa.com.
One operator is certified to undertake garbage and recyclable material collection and
forwarding it to elimination (landfill deposit) or recycling/recovering process.
The other one is certified to undertake oil and oily mixtures collection from vessels, such as
oil refused, crude oil, fuel oil, filters, residues contaminated with oil, sludge, bilge water,
included in Annex I of MARPOL 73/78, as well classified in accordance with European Waste
List. The port operator is certified to undertake sewage collection from vessels as defined in
Annex IV of MARPOL 73/78 and forwarding it to elimination/treatment.
After the discharge, operators give a Marpol Certificate to be signed by the master and to put
a stamp. This document, already signed by port authority and operator, proves that the ship
discharged waste at port of Lisbon and also indicates the type and volume of waste,, pier,
date and hour of the operation.
Tariffs
In Port of Lisbon, there is an indirect waste fee (refered as fixed waste tariff) calculated by
the unit of gross tonnage (GT), applied to all ships and vessels calling the port. Fixed waste
tariffs are due by ship owners, or their legal representatives, by the availability, irrespective of
the use, of the port reception facilities for ship-generated waste and cargo residues, including
treatment and disposal of waste, according to Directive 2000/59/CE, of 27th November.
The following vessels and ships are exempt of fixed tariff in Port of Lisbon:
a) Warships;
b) Ships owned/licensed or operated by port authority;
c) fishing vessels and factory-ships for fish treatment;
d) submersibles, platforms and other structures;
e) non-propelled barges;
f) recreational craft moored at the marinas;
g) vessels with maritime-touristic activity;
75
h) vessels paying an annual mooring tax;
i) vessels with a certificate of waste tariff exemption, issued by APL, SA.
To ship not exempted of fixed tariff is granted a minimum service for the collection of solid
waste and valorizable material for a maximum value equivalent to the highest fixed tariff
established for the GT class it belongs to, without additional costs.
All ships (exempted or not of fixed tariff) delivering waste and oily mixtures, sanitary sewage
and solid waste are subject to the variable waste tariff. For those ships that are not
exempted of fixed tariff, variable tariff applies on solid waste delivery only when minimum
service conditions established in article 27 are exceeded.
Please for detailed information find Tariff Regulations in website www.portodelisboa.pt.
While delivering waste, it is necessary to comply with the following rules:
• provide enough and adequate information to waste collectors, to avoid delays at the
beginning of operation;
• obey port’s rules about waste containers position at pier;
• assure the correct disposal of garbage at port reception facilities;
• grant individual protection equipment for crew members that offload garbage;
• put a net between ship and pier, if the ship does not have a convey or a gangway for
garbage discharge, and if it uses the crane;
• assure cleanness and security conditions, during the discharge operations;
• respect port reception facilities capacity, and therefore fill containers only until top
borders;
• assure the pier stays clean at the end of operation;
• sign and put a stamp in Certificate of waste reception, without delays for collectors;
• inform ship’s agent or Port Authority about inadequacies detected during waste disposal.
In accordance with national legislation and port's specific regulations concerning discharges
from vessels, discharges of sewage (gray or black water) are not allowed in port waters,
even the treated effluent. Treated effluent may remain onboard if there is enough storage
capacity. However, Port Authority has reception facilities, such as tanker trucks, to receive
ship’s sewage, according our tariffs. For discharges from shore follow MARPOL Annex IV.
Related to treated effluent, Port Authority is making an effort to have this situation reviewed
by other authorities involved in the river Tagus estuary management, so that treated
wastewater discharges can be permitted within port waters under specific conditions.
The ship is allowed to discharge ballast water while in port, according to Port Regulations:
"a) the final ballast for the journey can only be carried out at the quay when no damage for
third parties arise (or the necessary safety conditions are not granted for the ship to set off),
in order to avoid unnecessary risks once cargo or bunkering operations are finished
b) Taking into consideration port water contamination with pathogenic organisms, or those
alien to the River Tagus water, direct ballast / unballast operations from and into the river
should be reduced to those strictly necessary for the ship’s safety
c) It is recommended that when sailing from / to the port ballast be replaced by ocean water
as long as shipping, weather and sea conditions allow it.
76
Under the terms of Decree-Law no. 565/99, dated Dec. 21, and IMO Resolution A.868(20),
dated 27 Nov. 1997, the Ship owner / Shipping agent is compelled to send to the Port
Authority the record for ballast water handling, and fill in the respective form.
The exhaust emissions are controlled according our national law: Decree-Law 239/97, 9th
September and Port Regulations. Ships may be inspected and must show the results from
air emissions results.
According to the EU Directive (DIRECTIVE 2005/33/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
AND OF THE COUNCIL), port authority requires the use of low sulphur content fuel (sulphur
less than 1.5%). So when calling Port of Lisbon, ships may be inspected and consequently
prove the origin and specifications of the fuel.
Also regarding the decrease of air pollution, the use of incinerators onboard is forbidden
during entrance, stay and exit of ships in Port of Lisbon. After that, ship can start using the
incinerators, in agreement with MARPOL Annex V.
