A boost in container exports brougth about this significant increase (+13%). All in alll, this traffic category accounted for 22% of the Port\u2019s total.<\/p>\n<p>Exports through the Port of Bilbao grew by 4% as a result of greater exporting activity in Spain.<\/p>\n<p>Total traffic in 2012 was 29.5 million tonnnes (-7.8%). This means a loss of some 2.5 million tonnes on the previous year meanly because of lower demand in some hydrocarbons.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7943\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7943\" style=\"width: 305px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a class=\"thickbox\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/7608.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-una_columna wp-image-7943\" title=\"View of the port\" alt=\"View of the port\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/7608-305x212.jpg\" width=\"305\" height=\"212\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7943\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">View of the port<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"one_half column-last bbcol\"><\/p>\n<p>With regards to solid bulks, there was a 6.5% growth owing to the increase in coal and coke. In some measure, this can be attributed to the opening of the new petroleum coke facility. Cement &amp; clinker, and soya beans also experienced growths.<\/p>\n<p>The European Atlantic, as always, is Bilbao\u00b4s main market with almost 50% of total throughput. In addition, the North American Atlantic has registered the highest growth, thus consolidating second place. Notable increases were also recorded in both the South American Pacific and Atlantic faces. Outstanding countries are Russia, United Kingdom, Mexico, USA and the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>There was intense maritime-rail activity at the Port of Bilbao throughout the year which produced a 9% increase in intermodal flows; container traffic by rail grew 16% as a consequence of port operators introducing new rail services to and from the Port.<\/p>\n<p>Constant investment has been requiered since the commencement of the Port\u00b4s extension works in the Outer Abra twenty years ago. This effort, made possible by the Port Authority\u00b4s healthy finances, has produced an investment of 33 million Euros in 2012 which will reach 56 million in 2013.<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/p>\n <div class=\"hide-for-small page-options-container hide-for-print\"> <hr class=\"page-options\"\/> <ul class=\"inline right page-options\"><li><a class=\"bmprint\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Print this article\"><i class=\"icon-print\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"bmsend2friend\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Article of interest: New container traffic record at the Port of Bilbao -
