International Shipping Port of Portland will cease operations in October

According to several US media reports, the Port of Portland has decided to stop its container business in October due to financial difficulties.

Oregon's major ports appear to be facing financial difficulties, with the Port of Portland saying it cannot afford to open its container terminal until September as agreements with third-party operators have not yet been completed.

The Port of Portland has lost more than $30 million over the past three years, including an estimated shortfall of $14 million this year, according to OPB data.

Keith Leavitt, Port of Portland's chief trade and economic development officer, wrote in an email to industry stakeholders:"We know that this terminal is an important statewide asset-proposing a fiscally sustainable business model for container services that has more state funding and investment is worthy of further discussion. At this time, we have no financial options and must take this step." 

国际海运波特兰港将于10月停止运营

       据多家美国媒体报道，由于财政困难，波特兰港已决定在10月份停止其集装箱业务。

       俄勒冈州的主要港口似乎面临着财政困难，由于与第三方运营商的协议尚未完成，波特兰港表示，它无法承担将集装箱码头开放到9月份的费用。

       根据OPB的数据，波特兰港在过去三年中损失了3000多万美元，其中包括今年预计的1400万美元的缺口。

       波特兰港首席贸易和经济发展官基思·莱维特(Keith Leavitt)在给行业利益相关者的电子邮件中写道：“我们知道，这个码头是全州范围内的重要资产——为集装箱服务提出一个财政上可持续的商业模式是值得进一步讨论的，这个模式有更多的国家资金和投资。目前，我们已经没有财政选择，必须采取这一步骤。”
