Evidenced six criticality in the project Venice Cruise 2,0 in order to move the terminal cruises of Venice in mouth of port of Lido
1200's million euro in order to transform the petrochemical one of Marghera Port in an integrated pole of green chemistry

The Harbour Authority of Venice has announced that the Conference of the services met today in order to examine the technical-functional aspects of the project Venice Cruise 2,0 that it assumes to move the terminal cruises in mouth of port of Lido has evidenced six criticalities that at the moment appear difficultly superable. The agency has specified that such criticalities regard the increase of risk of inbred shipwreck and terrorism to the positioning of the terminal and the system of long transfer goods and passengers the channel of the Giudecca and the Basin of S.Marco. The occupational impact - it has found the authority - would translate in the loss of some thousand places of work because of the forecast to manage not more than five of the eight approaches today guaranteed in Marine.
The fourth criticality regards the increase, as well as of the costs for the greater services which had from Customs, Finance, Police of Frontier, etc, of the operating costs of the double terminal that risk to put outside market the port cruises as home port degrading it to mere port of transit with all the been worried ones and paradoxical effects impact negatives on tourism (fifth criticality), transforming its users in visitors "you bite and you escape". It has been found, moreover, (sixth criticality) that the necessary organization of greater services on the spot (Customs, Finance, Police of Frontier, etc) would demand direct and an important involvement of the municipality of Treporti Little horse.
During Conference at last it is reported that many of these appraisals are advanced also on behalf of the companies of navigation through the European association of category CLIA Europe (Cruise Line International Association Europe).
While today to the Ministry of the Economic Development the societies Eni and Versalis have signed with the institutions and the labor organizations an understanding that previews the realization of new systems, first in their genre, that they will produce produced to high performances for applications in the oil perforations and segments of market to high added value as the detergents and the bio-lubricants. An investment of 200 million euros in order to transform the petrochemical one of Marghera Port in an integrated pole of green chemistry is previewed. The objective is to guarantee to the site an economically sustainable future, to safeguard the levels of occupation and to value the entrepreneurial activities presents in the induced one.
In the project, that it will be operating shortly, the people of the plant in synergy with the centers will be involved search Versalis of Mantua, Novara and the technicians of Elevance Renewable Sciences, the specialized American society in the produced ones to high added value obtained from oils vegetables. The new productive order to Marghera Port previews the definitive closing of the system of stream cracking.
The Harbour Authority of Venice has emphasized that this is a lot important for the port of Venice because the project of Versalis will use new harbour logistic structures with those existing in the site in order to develop a synergy with the real industrial activity. Finally - it has found the agency - it is possible to speak about a first example of "warehouse of the chemistry" that it will experience new model of integration of manufacture-logistic to Marghera Port on which the Harbour Authority a lot in a reconversion optical, not only is working of the industry that appears on the docks, but also of the same marine traffics. Moreover - it has specified the harbour authority - it is positive that the charges to the systems of Ferrara, Mantua and Ravenna will be able to continue through pipelines through the reception of the feedstock with the harbour logistic structures of Marghera Port.
