Fiumicino (ITFCO)

The port handles bulk oil and petroleum products at the Raffineria di Roma offshore terminal 3nm SW of the entrance. The harbour is used by small coastal tankers and cargo vessels and provides an operating base for servicing the offshore berths.

Summer.

Fiumicino is located at the entrance to the Tiber, approx 35km W of Rome.

LOA 256m, beam 45m, BCM 174m, draught 15.5m, 260,000DWT.

Approx 1,742,000t of cargo and 40 vessels handled annually.

For vessels up to 30,000GT: Beta Zone: 41°43.3'N 012°09.4'E 41°43.3'N 012°10.4'E 41°41.6'N 012°11.0'E 41°42.0'N 012°12.1'E Anchorages: F4. 41°43.0'N 012°09.8'E F5. 41°42.4'N 012°10.6'E F6. 41°42.0'N 012°11.5'E Vessels must maintain a minimum distance of 0.8nm. Vessels should inform harbour master/pilots when the vessel has anchored, on VHF Ch 16 with the following information: ..... 1. Anchoring time 2. Anchoring position (lat and long) 3. Length (shackles) of chain at sea. Delta Zone: Inshore anchorage for vessels with draught under 3.0m. Prohibited anchorage: Anchoring and fishing are prohibited in an area extending 4.5nm WSW of the entrance to Canale di Fiumicino. A submarine cable lands 0.7nm N of the canal entrance.

Anchorage approaches: See Traffic schemes below. Harbour: Vessels bound for, or approaching from, the Canal Port of Fiumicino must pass 3.5nm N of Echo 1 Point or a position 4.5nm to the S of Echo 0 and head on a direct course without passing within the anchorage zones. The canal is approximately 50m wide from the harbour entrance to the pedestrian swing bridge; channel width reduces to approximately 30m up-stream of it. Dersena Traiano, a square basin on the S side of the harbour, is a small craft marina. The harbour entrance has a least depth of 4.1m. Although periodic dredging maintains an average depth of 4.0m within the port appreciable silting occurs. Depths are also subject to the condition of Fiume Tevere; in addition to the influence of natural conditions the river is used for generating hydro-electricity. Mariners should confirm available depth with the port authority. Directions for leaving harbour: Vessels leaving harbour after berthing bows E should normally turn within the harbour. However in good conditions it is possible to make a stern first departure.

Pilotage is compulsory for tankers berthing at the offshore terminal and for all vessels transiting Canale di Fiumicino or Fiume Tevere. Pilots are available by day only for berthing, night unberthing permitted. The pilot boards within the Pilotage Zones, which extends 1nm from the SPM's or off the entrance to Canale di Fiumicino. Vessels are required to arrange gangway or pilot ladder both port and starboard sides.

It is prohibited to approach within 500m of a tanker loading, discharging or manoeuvring in the vicinity of the SPM's. Berthing at the SPM's must be authorised by Raffineria di Roma. The movement of commercial vessels at Canale di Fiumicino is only permitted by day, however small craft and fishing vessels are permitted to enter or leave the port at night and proceed as far upstream as the pedestrian swing bridge. During the day small craft are permitted to proceed upstream of the lifting bridge, as far as their draught allows, only when the bridge is open. The 2 Giugno lifting bridge is only opened by prior arrangement with the port authority. The normal opening times of the pedestrian footbridge are: ..... For passage upstream For passage downstream (hrs) (hrs) Weekdays 0725, 1155, 1625 0735, 1205, 1635 Public Holidays 0855, 1555 0905, 1606 The pedestrian footbridge will also be opened to coincide with the opening of 2 Giugno lifting bridge. Vessels leaving Canale di Fiumicino have right of way. There is a speed limit of 3kts within Canale di Fiumicino. Vertical clearance: A pedestrian swing bridge and the 2 Giugno lifting bridge, respectively 0.25nm and 0.75nm E of the harbour entrance, obstruct the canal when closed. The pedestrian bridge swings clear of the channel; the lifting bridge has a vertical clearance of 23m when open.

Max range approx 0.5m. The current in Canale di Fiumicino is variable and its greatest rate is from 6-7kts. Issuing from the canal entrance, the current generally turns gradually NNW, even in summer, and runs for a time parallel with the coast. As considerable overfalls are caused by the out-going current from both mouths of Fiume Tevere, caution is necessary in boats, especially during onshore winds.

Entry and departure points: Tankers carrying hydrocarbons, noxious substances or dangerous chemical products in a liquid/gaseous state, which need to enter the Inshore Traffic Zone must do so through the Check Point Zone at position 41° 40.8'N 011°59.2'E and request permission to enter or anchor, from the operations centre of the harbour masters office. Vessels bound for the North Anchorage must enter the Inshore Traffic Zone through the Echo 1 Point (radius 0.3nm, centred on position 41°46.2'N 012° 02.5'E) and vessels bound for the South Anchorage must enter the Inshore Traffic Zone through the Echo 0 Point (radius 0.3nm, centred on position 41° 41.82'N 012°07.90'E). All vessels leaving the Inshore Traffic Zone must pass through the Uniform 0 Point (radius 0.3nm, centred on position 41°43.5'N 012°05.8'E). Upon arrival to points Echo 1 and Echo 2, contact harbour master/pilots on VHF Ch 16 giving following information: ..... 1. Vessel's name/callsign 2. Flag 3. Route 4. Cargo quantity/quality (if in ballast last cargo carried) 5. Anchorage area/platform 6. Draught/GT

Available. One tug is compulsory for tankers over 10,000GT for mooring/unmooring. All tankers must have tugboat rope prepared during mooring/unmooring manoeuvres. Also tugboat rope must be ready astern from the time of berthing to unberthing.

Prevailing winds: SW'ly, NW'ly, N'ly. If the following weather sea conditions occur whilst a vessel is berthed at SBM's, the vessel has to be unberthed in accordance with the ship master's and sea terminal representative (loading master) agreement: ..... 1. Winds coming from III and IV quadrant (25kts) and/or sea wave of 2.0m. 2. Winds coming from I and II quadrant (30kts) and/or sea wave of 2.0m. Regardless of winds direction with force over 20kts, loading master in agreement with ship's master has to pre-alert port's services for unberthing operations. During the summer season if the wind force is over the above mentioned value, it is possible that vessel remains at platform on condition that there is no increase in height of waves.
