The regional office of the State Property Fund of Ukraine in Odesa and Mykolaiv regions has put up for sale the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi seaport with a starting price of UAH 177 million 972.5 thousand.
The relevant information is available in the Prozorro.Sale system.
According to the charter, the main activity of the state enterprise Belgorod-Dniester Commercial Sea Port is auxiliary water transport services. The company specializes in transshipment of timber cargo, mineral fertilizers, iron ore pellets, metal products and grain cargo. Vessels can enter the port through the 1.5 km-long approach channel of the offshore part of the Dniester-Tsarhorod estuary and the 14.5 km-long Dniester-Liman part, with a depth of 3 meters (3.5-4.5 meters according to the passport).
The unified property complex is located on the territory of 64.4 hectares in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi and Zatoka. The port also includes nine ships, four diesel locomotives, 18 portal cranes, 47 vehicles, etc.
Earlier, Oksana Kiktenko, director of the Belgorod-Dniester ICC, said that the main reason why businesses are not interested in the property complex is the extremely negative condition of the property and facilities that remain in the state.
According to her, today the approach channel has an actual depth of 1.9 meters, while the passport depth is 5.5 meters. For four years now , BDMTP has been negotiating with the state-owned Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority (USPA) and has been "fighting" to restore the necessary depths to allow for the resumption of ship calls,
Before that, the State Property Fund canceled the 11th auction for the sale of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi seaport. The starting price for this auction was UAH 88 million 986 thousand 246.
The starting price for this auction was UAH 88 million 986 thousand 246, the same as for the previously canceled auction on September 16.
The auction scheduled for September 6 did not take place due to the absence of participants. Under the terms of the auction, the buyer must also pay off wage and budget arrears and pay VAT in the amount of 20% of the final value of the property. As of September 30, 2023, this total debt amounted to UAH 105.5 million.
