ORGANIZATION OF OPERATIONS IN RUSSIAN SEAPORTS
1. Functions of sea ports
Merchant sea ports are intended to perform economic and administrative
functions.
The economic functions. Sea ports are responsible for loading / unloading
operations, servicing of inbound / outbound Russian and foreign ships transportation, forwarding and warehousing operations, transshipment of cargo to the marine
transport from other modes of transport (intermodal cargo handling operations),
servicing of deep sea vessels’ passengers. To perform these functions sea ports
have water areas, land territories, warehouses and open storage facilities, cargo

handling facilities, passenger terminals, approach ways for railway and motor
transport, and an adequate personnel.
The administrative functions. Sea ports are responsible for ensuring safe navigation and proper order within the port, including supervision for adherence to
shipping regulations, registration of vessels in the State Register of Shipping, issue
and check up of ship’s papers, diplomas and qualification certificates of ship officers, clearance of vessels inwards and outwards, organization of pilotage and towage service and other functions of Port Operations Management.
2. Port operations management
Port operations management is effected by three channels. The higher channel controls port operations as a whole and includes the operations, commerce,
shipping, planning, labour and wages, mechanization, technology, personnel, accounts, administrative, harbour master’s and other functional services / departments.
The port is headed by the general director who controls the entire port operations. Each department / service is managed by the department head. There are also
some deputy general directors. Thus, the deputy general director operational is responsible for the operations, commerce and shipping departments. Safety of shipping and proper order in the port is the responsibility of the harbour master who is
a deputy general director at the same time.
The middle channel of management controls cargo handling complexes and
other production units of the port, such as port auxiliary service fleet, depots for
motor and electric lift trucks, railway and motor cars, etc., repair and maintenance
shops, rigging shops and others. The main production units of the port are cargo
handling complexes where all loading / unloading operations are carried out. The
complexes specialize in handling specific types of cargoes (general cargo, timber,
ore, coal, containers, etc.) and in servicing specific cargo traffic routes. Each cargo,
handling complex comprises terminals, complex stevedore gangs, traffic control

Unit 14. Organization of Operations in Seaports 23
service, warehouse and open storage personnel, and is headed by the superintendent.
The lower channel of the management is involved in a direct control of cargo handling operations on berths and in warehouses. This control is affected by
chief stevedores, warehouse superintendents and stevedore gang foremen.
3. Management facilities
To facilitate and improve port management sea ports are provided with information computing centres equipped with most up-to-date sophisticated computers. As a result, such everyday management problems as drawing up cargo
plans and optimal technological plans-schedules for handling each particular vessel, drawing up shift-day plans-schedules of the port operations and operations of
each particular cargo handling complex – and a lot of other problems – are solved
by computers.
