Batumi Port handled 6.25 million tonnes of cargo in January–September 2026, up by 13% year-on-year, according to the port’s management.
The increase was driven by higher volumes of dry bulk, container, ferry and oil-related cargo.
During a recent visit by Central Asian foreign ministers, three tankers were being serviced at the port. Operations involved loading up to 4,650 tonnes of liquefied hydrocarbon gas and 85,000 tonnes of oil, while another tanker was unloading up to 5,000 tonnes of gasoline.
Nationwide, Georgian seaports and terminals handled 15.4 million tonnes of cargo in the first nine months, up by 24% year-on-year, according to government data.
