PERU

REPORT Oi\1 THE PORT OF SALAVERRY PROJ3CT

i. The Peruvian Government has asked for a loan to meet the foreigncurre ncy cos ts for the provision of facilitles at the Port of Salaverry,amounting to approzimately i:K5.5 million out of a total cost of 'j7 millionequivalent .

ii. Tne Port of Salaverry is not operated by an autonomous portauthority but by the Directorate of Port Administration which operatessome tienty smaller ports alon- the Peruvian coast. Tne Directorate isunder the 1inistry of Finance but has its own budget. It is felt thatthe present organization is satisfactory.

iii. Tfhe project is sound from an engineering point of view. Pre-limiinary design has been done by competent Consultants well-experiencedin such work. Final design and supervision of construction would be en-trusted to the same Consultants. IHlost of the work should be carried outby contracts awarded after the invitation of international tenders.

iv. Sufficient funds would be available from charges nowq levied ortraffic passing through Peruvian ports to pay the local currency costs ofthe project and to meet the debt service of the requested loan. However,the available revenue from Salaverry alone would be insufficient. Thefinancing of the project and its debt service must thus depend on theavai:Lability of revenue from other Peruvian ports.

va On the basis of the vol-ume of traffic in sight for 1963, theproject does not promise to induce sufficient economic benefits to jus-tify its cost. Po-tentially enough traffic could develop by 1968 to pro--vide benefits commensurate with the investment. However, such trafficgrowth depends on various eventualities, some of -them quite probable andothers less definite, the occurrence and timing of which are uncertain.

vil Consequently, it is recommended that the Peruvian Government beinformed that the Bank does not consider the economic benefits of the proj-ect to be sufficient to justify a Bank loan. The Government should con-sider the advisability of postponing the project urntil there is more cer-tainty about development of other potentials in the area.

vii. In the meantime, the Peruvian Government might wish to considerthe construction of the coastal shipping pier and the improvement of an-cillary facilities of the lighterage port, the costos of which could be :netby the Government from its own financial resources.

3. The foliowing report is an appraisai oIf tne project. It is main-ly based on the findings of a Bank mission which v-isited Peru in I'ay 1959,and on technical and economic reports prepared by Livesey and Henderson,consulting engineers., in April and June 1959.

I. tEriETRAL

lhe Existing Coastal Ports of Peru (See MIap 1).

4. Geographically Peru comprises three cistinct natural regions.Along the Pacific seaboard there is a narrow coastal plain out of whichthe mountain chain of the Andes rises abruptly. Lack of rainfall makesthis plain a naturaL desert, but in the river valleys and wjhere irrigationcan be provided the land is fertile. The Sierra of the AIndes on the otherhand contains rich mineral deposits but has limited agricultural possibil-ities, To the east of the Andes there is a large area of potentially pro-ductive country, which at present is largely undeveloped and without ade--quate conmrnicationsa

5. The two-thousand-mile coastline of Peru lacks natural harborsand in the past seaborne goods were loaded and discharged on the moresheltered beaches near the mouths of the cultivated valleys crossing thecoastal plain. Towards the end of the nLneteenth century more effectivefacilities were provided at a number of these sites, in most cases by theconstruction of a shallow water pier, connected to the railway whichserved the particular valley, from which pier cargo was lightered to andfrom vessels lying at anchor some distance from the shore.

6. Since that time only Callao has been developed into a major portshaving full modern facilities and an annual cargo tonnage of the order ofthree million tons. The other ports, about twenty in number, have remainedsecondary or minor in character, and in none of them does the annual ton.-nage handled exceed r,iore than the order of 300,000 tons. Only in the casesof Ilatarani in the extreme south, where three deep-water berths, warehouses,etc. were constructed about 1951, and Chimbote. north of Callao. wihere adeep-water pier was built in 1942, has any appreciable development taken

place. The remaining secondary and minor ports remain lighterage ports,equipped only with the facilities of fifty or more years ago, obsoleteand in marry cases di.La.pidated beyond economic repair.

7. The Government ha.s long felt that it should complete themodernization of the facilities of the lesser ports .s.nd in 1957 com-missioned t.he Tudor Engineering Company of San Francisco to make acomprehensive study of the question. The ensuing report recommendedthe supersession of the existing inefficient lighterage ports by asmaller number of modtern deep-water ports where ships can go alongsidepiers to transfer cargo. It recommended Paita., Salaverry, Matarani, andPisco as the ports at which these deep-water facilities should be provide!d,giving priority to 1t0ie work at Paita and Salaverry.

III. PORT OF SALAVERRY

8. Salaverry, a town of about 7,000 inhabitants, is situated 310mnles north of Lima on th nP.w Pan America n Highwyv (Man 2)= Tt is theseaward terminus of the Trujillo Railway, owned by the Peruvian Corpora-f.i nn Tifir-ih i-7rwrrA (:hi -h;onm qnei sZnohp Ifo7lloir nqrpnq~z Trtil;ln onn7it-q

of the prov:ince of la Libertad and having a population of about 140l,000,lies 10 miles to the north of Salaverry, on the Trujillo Ri1WaYla y n.d thePan American Highway.

tectedi by a headland to the south (NvIap 3). In 1956 the Government. engagedthe contracting f1irm of G. Wimpey ay and UQmpany to constrcuc a Ub'fav',WaUer toprovidle protection for the harbor. The work was carried out on a cost plusfixed fee basis and as completea au thne eunu o 1958 anlu was clarU-ge.ly li-

nancecl by a medium term sterling suppliersI credit. The cost of the brealk-water was approximately S/110 million (UIS" miilion equivalent). Up tofive sea-going vessels can lie within the shelter of the breakwater, thedepth of water being from 8 to 10 meters at low water. Wave action on thispart of the coast is such that before the breakwater was built lighterageoperations were frecluently interrupted, but now the working of ships isseldom affected. The tidal range varies from about two feet at neap tidesto fouir feet at spring tides.

11. The principal existing shore structure is a screw-piled timber-decked lighterage pier, built in 1886, on which are railway tracks con-nected to the Trujillo Railway. The pier is in a deteriorated conditioninvolving a limitation in the weight of rail cars using it, and cannot beused by road transport. It urgently needs repair and improvement if itis to continue in effective operation. Dry cargo is hancled at thepier by lighters serving vessels anchored within the harbor, steam cranesof obsolete types being employed. Petroleum is discharged at a sub-marine oil berth within the harbor.

12. In the present port there is virtually no traffic area orwarehouse accommodation. anport cargo is for the greater part lodgedin '-arehouses in Trujillo or Salaverry towm before being brought to thepier by, rail. A small shed exists for import cargo, b-ut this is inade-quate for even the present level of traffic, so that most of Custom ex-amination must be carried out on the rail car clear of the pier or at -theimporters' warehouses in Salaverry or Trujillo. iHecharnical handlingequipment is limited to the obsolete pier cranes already described, asin view of the condition of the pier and the lack of roads and workingspace on shore it would be difficult to employ additional up-to-dateequ ipment.

13. Salaverry is connected to the Pan American Highway by a six-met;er wide paved road four and one-half mile s long, which is in poorcondition and barely adequate for the small volume of road transport atpresent moving to and from the port. It will therefore be necessary towiden and improve this moad to provide for any increase in the volumeof traffic to and from the port.

IV. THE PIROJECT

General (See J/lap 4)

14. The purpose of the project would be to modernize the port byrproviding piers wahere ships can load and discharge directlv. togetherwith adeauate working areas and warehouse accommodation on shore. Theproject would comprise dredging in the harbor, a pier for deep-seavessels and another for coastal craft, a petroleum pier, a reclaimedtraffic area with warehouses. Daved stacking areas, roads. rnil]wav sid-ings, etc. Construction would begin during 1960 and be completed with-in two vears= The proposals are hase.d on nrPlimirnary desi gns pre-pared by -impey aid Company, contractors for the breakwater, and sub-sc-tnintnlv PYnmintc!d ardn am.ndedci bh T.ivep.R andv Hpr Prsnr'n ron-nm1 ting

erngineers, at the request of the Government.

Dredging

l5. Dredginlg in the harbor would provide access to the new piersanld oil berth and a tuvrning circle as shoMn onM)ap h, i or the the time beingthe general dredged depth would be limited to 10 meters below low water,the existing depth at the head of th.e breakwater.

of ouLward bound vessels of this kind eisewhere or by lihtering -wouldbe simall. Nevertheless it can be expected that these additional costswill eventually be such as to warrant the deepening and maintenance ofthe harbor and approach clhannel at this increased depth. Because oft'nis likelihood the structures in the harbor would be designed so as toperniT.t dredging to 12 meters. At the petroleum berth dredging would beto a depth of 8 meters, this being adequate for the class of tankerlikely to use the berth during the foreseeable future.

Piers

16. The pier for deep-sea vessels would be capable of accommodatinngtwo of the longest vessels likely to call at the port. lThe smaller pier ismainly intended for' use by the considerable number of coastal vesselsusing the harbor, but if necessary wuould accommodate the shorter deep-seavessels, a useful facility, as frequently up to four such ships call onthe same day. Both piers would be provided with railway sidings and suit-ably decked for use by road transport. The petroleium discharging pierwoul(d be a light st;ructure clear of the turning circle since the presenceof the submarine oil berth is an obstruction to the handling of othervessels in the relatively restricted deep-water area of the harbor.

Traffic Area, Warehouses, etc.

17. The reclamnation to be carried out would provide a total traffi.carea of about 40 acres. On this area a transit shed for dutiable importcargo would be provided adjoining the two piers. Three warehouses wouldbe built, mainly for export sugar awaiting shipment, but partly for thebonded storage of imports. Covered storage would also be provided forexport rinerals, and( paved open storage areas for guano and general carg'o.

Miscellaneous

18. Ancillary buildings such as adidnistrative offices. gear stores,a power house, etc., iwould be provided, together writh access roads and rail-way sidings to the various piers and warehouses.

Possible utiture Extension

19. The proposed layout provides for future extension of the trafficarea, additional p:iers and warehouses, and the installation of a bulk sugarloading installation, should these items be made necessary by the futuregrowith of traffic.

Operating Advantages Resulting from the Project

20. The operating advantages of the improved port as compared withthe existing primitive facilities wnu1ud he many Risk of Ceollision be-tween ships moving in the harbor would be diminished. The inconvenience

Page 9: CarmLchael H to - World Bank · PERU REPORT Oi\1 THE PORT OF SALAVERRY PROJ3CT i. The Peruvian Government has asked for a loan to meet the foreign curre ncy cos ts for the provision

and cost of lightering would be eliminated. It would be possible to loadliquid molasses direct to ship instead of by means of tank barges, an ex-pensive process for which the number of baraes now available is in any caseinsufficient. Increased loading and discharge rates would be possible wTiththe ships alongside the piers, particularly in the case of coastal craft,

which have less effective handling gear than the larger ships, and the turn-round of all vessels would thus be improved. The increased warehouse ac.-commodation would make it possible to bring all export sugar actually intothe port to awJait shipping, instead of storing it in scattered distant ware-houses. The present accommodation for general cargo imports is inadequate,and the availability of the new transit shed and warehouse together with theelimination of lighterage would undoubtedly stimulate imports through Sa:La-verry. The availability of an adequate traffic area and of up-to-date p:ierswiould. make possible the use of modern cargo handling appliances and would inconsequence speed up and reduce the cost of operations generally.

Estimated Cost of the Project

21. The estimated cost of the project is about S/192 million (US$7 mil-lion equivalent) approximately, of which foreign currency costs would amountto about S/15o million (uSgr555 million equivalent). These figures includethe cost of engineering and of interest on the requested loan during con-struction. The estimate is considered satisfactory. To a large extentit is based. on costs actually recorded during the construction of the break-water. Normal provision has been made for construction contingencies as wellas an allowance from an expected increase in local costs during the construc-tion period. Unless serious inflation occurs the estimate of total costshould therefore not be exceeded. The following is a summary of the esti-mate, details of which are given in Appendix 1:

T ne Carrying Out of the Project

22. The detailed design and supervision of the construction of theproject would be entrusted to consulting engineers experienced in maritimnework. The Directorate of Port Administration, on the recommendation ofLivesey and Henderson, propose that the work should be carried out byWiimpey & Company, contractors for the breakwater, under a negotiatedcontract. The proposal is made principally on the grounds that this firmof contractors still have staff and plant at the site, are experiencedin local conditions, and that a substantial delay would be involved if in-ternational tenders were to be invited. These arguments are not consideredto have as much weight as is attributed to them by the consultants; it isfelt that if the project is carried out international bidding should beheld for all of the work except reclamation, the carrying out of which bythe present contractor would offer advantage in respect of both cost andsaving in time.

V O OPERATION[S ANM 1RUAGRENT

Present

23. The existing port facilities at Salaverry are maintained andopenraned b 'y J.he D:.rectvorat.e of. 'DPor AAm, n J. str U- J, a de J.4teI1 o 4.he

Ministry of Finance and Cormerce. This department, which has its head--

eration at all Government secondary and minor ports except Chimbote,operated b U y the: _3 Lt. -orpora rL±, and th L_J'o por- -f C _pra

by an autonomous port authority. The revenues and. expenditures of theDirectorate of ort AI dmin istratiOn are 0shwn undeseparate heauLigrs iLn

the National Budget.

24. At Salaverry the activities of the Directorate are mainly liJn-lted to constructing and maintainin, the port structures, and operatingand maintaining cargo handling equipment on shore. Stevedoring and light-erage are entirely in the hands Of privale enlerprlse, labor ior cargohandling on shore being either dealt with in the same way, or, if suppliedby the Directorate, engaged on a casual basis. Pilotage and the controlof shipping is the responsibility of the Port Captain, the local represent-ative of the Minister of YMarine.

25. The Directorate's operating revenues arise principally fromwharfage charges paid by the importer/exporter on the tonnage of goodsharndled, charges on petroleum and other liquid cargo, charges for stor-age, and charges for overtime debited to shipping when overtime is work-ed at the latter's request. The wharfage charges are not based on theact;ual cost of handling, but are set at such a level that the Direct-orate's total annual operating revenue from all the ports approximatelyba].ances the depa rtmentts total annual operating expenditure as showrnin the National B3udget. Surpluses of this revenue do not accrue to theDirectorate, but are transferred to other departmental accounts, deficitsbeing similarly adjusted. Appendix 2 gives extracts from the NationalBudget for 1959 dealing with these revenues and expenditures.

26. In addition to the wharfage, etc. referred to in the last para-graph, the importer/exporter pays a series of imposts levied in mostcases per ton of goods handled. All of them are levied at the ports op-erated by the Directorate and some at other, including Callao. The wholeof these receipts together with a small fraction of certain ad valoremnimport duties are credited to a budget account entitled "Salaverry andOt'ner Port 1!Jorks", under decrees which stipulate that these funds can beused for port works only. The fund thus accumulated is at the disposalof the Directorate for capital improvements and related debt service atthe ports under its control. Receipts not spent in a particular yearcan be carried forward. Details of the estimated proceeds of these im-ports and duties during 1959 as shown in the National Budget are givenin Appendix 3.

27. Apart froi: negligible charges made by the Port Captain for theservices referred to in paragraph 24. minor dues paid by coastal vessels,

and tne overtiime cnarges described in paragrapn 25, wnicn are aJl-so srall,,shipping makes no payment towards the cost of the ports. The chargesapplied to the cost of operation and development as described above arethus met almost entirely by the importer/exporter. Averaged over the wholeof the ports concernect, the charges for both operation and developmenttotal about S/30 per ton of dry cargo and S/5 per ton of petroleum andmolasses.

28. Stevedoring, lightering and other casual labor in the port isunder the control of the "Control Commission for Maritime Labour", a pub-lic agency which has its headquarters in Callao and is represented local-ly by the Port Captain. The productivity of the labor is at present highand stevedoring and other costs are low. However many of the circumstanceswhich have lead to the present unsatisfactory labor si-tuation in Callao,such as the multiplicity of unions and excessive overtime differentials,exist also in Salaverry, where the existing satisfactory condition in thisrespect may therefore tend to deteriorate.

29. In spite of the unsatisfactory facilities for inspection alreadydescribed, Customs procedures in Salaverry appear to be efficiently car->ried out, no undue delay in the clearance of cargo being involved.

30. The functioning of the Directorate of Port Administration sufiersfrom the defects iniherent in the control of port operations from a central-ized office many m-iles distant. Apart from this, however, the departmentcarries out its duties effectivelv. bearine in mind the obsolete and dilap-idated condition of many of the installations under its control. Its rela-tions with users &i" the ports are aood. the ereat majority of the latterexpressing satisfaction with the service received. In general the rate andcost of cargo handling at the various norts are satisfactorvr in relation tothe nature of the facilities available.

Future

31. The Directorate proposes to operate the improved port as a sub-division under the control of a Port Administrator directly resnonsibleto the Director in Lima. As at present, the permanent staff at the portwould include cargo handling nnnliance operators and maintenanne qtnf'f'-but in addition, the Administration may also provide labor for cargo han-dling On the ni ers nnrl in the- traffic area, -ie. it may assume responsibil-ity for all handling of cargo from the quayside until it leaves the porta-rea. a-nd v nce versar

32.A Qfter- duei study, it is not considered advisable to form an auton-omous Port Authority to operate the Port of Salaverry at the present time.It i,ll be some years before the traffic reaches the level required to makethe overhead costs of such an Authority justifiable. In the meantime theDir,+ctor-te+ of 4 P-rt+ Al i l; Irdi S-rt c, Aemons +,rae thltitC1 he+- a ports

34. In 1958, Chicama handled about 200,000 tons of cargo, of ,Yhich9070 consisted of sugar shipments. This included 129,u00 tons sugar exportsand 9,OOO tons sugar loaded for coastal trade. Traffic which thereforevaries directly with the sugar trade, has showTn no definite trend aver recentyears, having fluctuated from 235,000 tons in 1953 to a maximum of 2b1,OCOtons in 1955 and 202,000 tons in 1958. Details for the period 19y-58are given in Appendix 6.

35. For a number of reasons the Casa Grande Company are not pepared,to promise in advance that they will transfer their Chicama operat.ons tcSalaverry if the project is carried out. The exact cost of shippiig theirsugar through the latter port cannot be predicted. Their present iperationshave the advantage of being entirely under their own control, theydoubt therealiability of the Trujillo Railway, and that it would provide adquaterolling stock for the traffic involved, etc.

36. The above facts however do not preclude the} possibility tht atsome future date, the Casa Grande Company may find it expedient to :ransfertheir operations from Chicama to Salaverry if modern facilities are providedat that port. The reduced cost of handling at Salaverry may offsetthe ad-ditional cost of the longer haul, and the disadvantage for Casa Grarie ofnot using their own property. The probable development of truck traisportin replacement of the railway would eliminate reliance on the Trujil-o Rail-way. Furthermore, in international trade there is a tendency to develop theshipping of sugar in bulk rather than in bags; if and when the Company d>cideto follow this tend.ency, they may at some future date consider it economicallyadvantageous to transfer their activities to Salaverry.

VII. TRAFFIC THIROUGH TIM PORT OF S.ILAVERRY

Port Service Area

37e The nresent service area of Salaverry comprises the Chicama and.Moche valley districts (Maps 1 and 2) except in tlffo respects. As alreadydescribed; exports by the Casa Grande Companr pass through Puerto Chicama.Seco:ndly, very little machinery, vehicles and general merchandise are im-nnrt.re thruiirgh S1:arvrrr bht-ause of the inconvenience and liabilitv to

pilfering associatecd with lightering and because of the absence of ware-house accormodation. Cargo of this nature is therefore discharged at Callaoand carried by road transport not only to the Salaverry area but to thegreater nart of the eoastal region to the north. When the proposed trans-Andean penetration road from Olmos is constructed, it is probable that theextensive service area thus formed would be shared in resnect of all classesof traffic by Salaverry and Paita.

Present Traffic

38. In 1957, 301 ships (other than oil tankers) called at Salaverry;of n 220 were ocean-going ships with an average Salaverry cargo of 816tons, and 81 were coastal vessels with an average cargo of 217 tons. In1958, Salaver y handled a trffic of 0,000 ton- (in"l" p.tr1le,ir.) ofwhich 173,000 represented foreign traffic and 147,000 coastal. Export

wsugar (103,000 tons) molass (28-000 tons) andiminerals (28,000 tors). Import discharges amounted to 12,000 tons and in-cluded artificial fertilizers, sacks, tbnier, etc., the volume of generalmerchandise being, as stated above, small. Coastal cargo loaded amountedto 5, to, ofV which ,000 t was su_ r Pa_l the -- l of +h-.e

122,000 tons of coastal discharges consisted of petroleum handled by pipe-line.

are given in Appendices 4 and 5. Traffic other than petroleum has increas-eu fromL sor e 13U5l tonUs in lthe ear.ly years- V.4 UfU vul^.JeJW UVL10,

in 1958, an average increase of about 4% a year. Since one-half to two-thir'ds of this tralfic has consisted of sugar, the main product oI theregion served by the port, traffic has fluctuated widely with the worlddemand for sugar. Sugar shipments reached a peak oI 131,000 tons in 1957and then declined to 105,000 tons in 1958.

40. Petroleum traffic has increased steadily from 57,000 tons inn ,i ir _ % i -^ A> I -t A n

1975U to 139,000 tons in 19P5.

!4I1. I'I the traffic trend of the period 1950-58 is maintained traificother than petroleum should reach the level of 224,000 tons by 1963 asshoqn in the detailed forecast of Appendix 7. Petroleum products dis-charged would then amount to 186,000 tons.

42. Sugar shipments from Salaverry are apt to recover by 1963 the1957 peak volume of about 130,000 tons. Peru has recently joined theWorld Sugar Agreement; its basic export quota, 490,000 tons a year, isgeared to 1957 performance and the reduced present quota of some 1450,000tons is a temporary measure reflecting weakness in world sugar markets.However, world market conditions for sugar do not afford much reason forexpecting materially larger shipments from Salaverry (or Chicama) in 1963than 1957.

42. Petroleum traffic through Salaverry has been growing rapidlysince the war because of the increasing use of motor vehicles and trac-t#rs. This growth should continue for some time at an average rate,

Page 16: CarmLchael H to - World Bank · PERU REPORT Oi\1 THE PORT OF SALAVERRY PROJ3CT i. The Peruvian Government has asked for a loan to meet the foreign curre ncy cos ts for the provision

through 1963, of close to 10,000 tons annually. It should be stated, how-ever, that the growt+Ih of petroleuim traffitc isof little import2nce to theproposed project.

44. There are no present reasono to expect a materially larger move-ment of ou,+t-bon,,rd molrals scs and concentrates bny, 1°63 or ofC u-0nA n. -nd

chemical fertilizer. On the other hand, imports of machinery, vehicles arid1 ~ ~ 4 ~ ~ -~4- 0 flflCnn .4- 11. 4-general cargo CouIld increase from a recernt (, 000ons annuaL(ly tUo a future

20,000 as soon as the planned new port is in full operation.

45. Like the rest of northern Peru, the Salaverry-Chicama servicearea gets alm!ost all its machinery, vehicles and general mer-chandise im--ports via Callao after a truck haul of upward of 500 km. Part of thistraffic would be diverted to Salaverry when deep-sea ships can berth therealongside a pier, although this diversion is apt to occur slowly becauseof Callaots distributive advantages as an established commerclal center.

.r.46. According to rough estimates by Bank staff, about 10W,0-150,000tons a year of machinery, vehicles and general merchandise are now being im-ported through Callao for distribution to an area with a population of1,500,000,growing at the rate of 2 to 3% a year, which could be convenientlyserved by a deep-sea port at Salaverry. It seems conservative to supposethat a minor fraction -- say 25,000 tons in all -- would be divertible inthe next 10-year period, of which about half by 1963 and the remainder by 1968.

Traffic Growth after 1963

4/. In other respects the traffic outlook beyond 1963 is difficult toassess. This is because of several eventualities; some quite probable andothers less definite, the occurrence and timing of which over the next 10years is uncertain. The main uncertainties are (a) whether, and if sowhen, the Casa Grande management would abandon Chicama port in favor ofSalaverry in order to benefit from direct loading and. discharg:e, more ef-ficient cargo handling, and the possibility of installing facili-ties forthe bulk loading of supar; and (b) whether and when a public agency orprivate group.-uld undertake to build a grain silo and flour mill at Sala-verry in order to import, more economically than via Callao, wheat for con3-sumption in northern Peru.

48. As explained earlier, there is a possibility that Casa Grandemay at some future date decide to abandon Chicama in favor of Salaverryif modern facilities are provided at that port. Salaverry would then re-ceive the 215,000 tons annually of non-petroleum goods forecast for Chicamain 1963, plus all ensuing traffic growth thereon.

49. Lengthy truck hauls would be eliminated by locating additionalgrain silo and mill capacity to serve northern Peru at the new port rathe:rthan Callao. The potential demand for grain in northern Peru would justifya nlant suiteble for an anniunl traffie of 6-0000 tons hy 1968- Tnquiries

from a U.S. firm regarding the possible construction of grain and flourfaeilities at Salaverry heve recently been reported= Huover; no relfiniteproject has yet been shaped.

50. Apart from the possible capture of goods now moving throughChica ra nnd CAllao, thI e no?ml econoemc growth of the Salaverry serviceareawnuld generate additional traffic for the new port after 1963.

Olmos to Yurimaguas, the amount of production it would induce and the pro-portion of th.e traffic -which would be routed via Paita.

51. Although the specific sources of additional tralfic over theperiod 1963-68 are not yet known, it appears reasonable to suppose thatover this period, 1) the trafLic of dry goods and molasses now directedthrough Salaverry could increase by 20%, about half of which would comefrom the Tinajones project, 2) the amounts of dry goods and molassesdivertible from Chicama would increase by about 10% and 3) petroleumtraffic would increase by about 30;%, this percentage being applied to thetraffic now going through both ports.

52. On the basis of the above assumptions and if the port of Chicamais closed by 1968, the potential traffic of the new port in 1968 wouldamount to 577,000 tons of dry goods and molasses and 251,000 tons of petro-leum products as shown in Appendix 7. Excluding petroleum, traffic wouldinclude 268,000 tons from the development of traffic presently going throughSalaverry, 237,000 tons diverted goods from Chicama and 72,000 tons diver.-ted goods from Callao.

53. It is therefore conceivable that a new port would be handlingby 196%, about 2.5 times the present traffic. This is not a definite fore-cast but an assessment of the traffic growth that could result from thetimely realization of certain eventualities.

VIII. FINANCIAL ASPECTS OF THE PROJECT

54. It has been proposed that the Government be the borrower, thatthe Ba nk lesnd the iull foreign exchange costs, that the local currencycosts be paid from the earmarked revenues available to the Directoratefor port works, and that these same revenues be used to reimburse theGovernment for the debt service. Such arrangements would be acceptable,if a Toan were made., in view of the status of the Directorate and itssources of revenue.

55. The revenues assigned to port works are currently aubject toa fir<t charge of about S/74 million in the form of suppliersf creditson account of the Salaverry breakwater and recent port works at Hataraniand Pucalpa (Appendix 9). The entire amount is to be repaid in thenext -three years as follows:

allowed for emergency works, there would remain a balance of S/55 millionto finance the local curreuLUy ost of the project, estimated at S/42million.

59. 'Sufficient local currency would therefore be available providedthe Directorate refrains from executing other major projects concurrentwith that at Salaverry. The cash balance might nevertheless be drawndown below a safe minimum for a short period in 1961/62. The Directo-

60. It would be pointless to try to express, by means of a conven-tional income statement, the ports ability to serce a Bank loan or toearn an investment return. As explained earlier, the Directorate's rev-nur,o< S+ C-n1 Salrer 'vd r,+hlvo ,rnn+e' -1-Ih h -r nrch-e no. A4tly to_

enues accruing to the Directorate at the new port with the out-of-pocketexpenses chargeabue ag- d9t3b uLn r. In orUer to uUmpliue reven-ue, tue pr*esetUcharges, averaging S/30 a ton for dry cargo and S/5 a ton for petroleum andmolasses (see paragraph 27) are applied to future traffic as forecast byBank staff. Cash expenditure on operations and maintenance is then sub-tracted to obtain a rough measure of the balance available to amortize theproject costs and earn an investment return.

62. For the traffic volume in sight as of 1963, the balance would ap-proximate S/3 million as shoam in Appendix 11. It could rise to S/1l.o mil-lion by 1968 if Chicama is closed and the port realizes its full trafficpotential. In comparison, a return of 6% on the investment of /1j92 millionand the amortization in h0 years of this investment wolild amount to S/16.3million a year. Debt service of the requested loan of Sjl50 million (equiva-lent $5.5 million), assuming a 6% interest and a term of 25 years includinga two-year grace period, would amount to S/12.2 million.

63. The above estimates assume that apart from increased revenue pro-portionate to the additional traffic, all the economic benefits from theproject would be allowed to accrue to the benefit of the port users only.Part, of course, could be recaptured by the Directorate as additional rev-enue and income by increasing the present port charges. Therefore, it wouldbe advisable for the Directorate to consider an increase of the charges atSalaverry so far as this would be justified by the provision of deep-waterfacilities rather than only lighterage facilities. Any increases at thenew port would have to be selective and could not exceed narrow limits;otherwise traffic growth might be retarded because of diversion of cargcto other ports.

64. The poor financial returns from Salaverry itself do not mean thatthere would be any difficulties in servicing a loan from resources availableto the Directorate from all the ports it controls. As of 1963, such revenuefrom Salaverry and other ports would approximate S/48 million a year againstonly S/12.2 million for interest and araortization of the requested loan.

65. Sufficient funds would therefore be in sight to service the proj-ect debt provided that future capital expenditure on the Peruvian ports isapprcpriately controlled. The Directorate has plans for major works atPaita., Pisco, and Matarani, which might call for a total outlay three timesthat of the Salaverry project and therefore require careful consideraticnof their inmact on the Directorate's financial position.

At the new port freight would be loaded and discharged directlyat a pier. The cost of lighterage would thereby be eliminated on goodssuch as now are handled by Salaverry and also on any goods diverted fromnChicama if this port were to be closed.

)68. Cargo handling ashore would be more efficient than at presentbecause of a better layout and the use of mechanical appliances. Anestimated S/5 a ton would thereby be saved on the sugar, fertilizer,concentrates, and other dry cargo presently handled at Salaverry. Therewould be similar savings of S/2.5 a ton on goods diverted from Chicama.

69. Freighters calling at the new port wlould be able to turn aroundfaster because of direct loading and discharging at deep-sea and coastalberths. The estimated average saving for a typical freighter loading ordischarging 800 tons would be three to four hours. This works out toabout $175 per vessel call.

70. There would be large savings on each ton of import goods un-loaded directly at Salaverry instead of being trucked into the areafrom Callao. It costs about s/o.60 per ton-km to operate a 5-ton truckon the Peruvian main roads at a 75% load factor. Assuming that the av-erage distance to terminal towns in the Salaverry service area is 550lm longer from Callao than from SalaverrY itself, each ton of goods thatcan be diverted represents a potential savings of S/330 or the equivalentof 612 a ton.

71. Some extra costs should be subtracted from the unit savingsdescribed above. In particular, goods diverted from Chicama to Sala-verrv wnuld have tn nay additinnal rail trqnqnnrt rharges of aboutS/3.50 a ton for the slightly longer haul to and from the Casa Grandere finery.

72. Applying the above unit savings to 221 ),000 tons of dry cargoand molasses in sight by 1963 and on 13,000 tons of cargo diverted fromCalla on hn- roa,+ be tsf /ll0.9 ilio-n per ,.rnnA .od

73. Although not negligible, these benefits would not justify acapit-al expend'tue totaling o/1y2 itLlion equu fVlent of which 75%to 80% is foreign exchange. It would require about S/16.3 millionper annum to amortize tnis investment in ou years aLd earn a 6%return. P).rthermore, the direct foreign exchange savings would besmall, although, the project might strengthen the competiti-veposi-tion of the sugar export industry.

74. As showJn earlier, the dry goods and molasses trafficof the new port could increase to 577,000 tons annually by 1968provided that the Casa Grande management decides to shut dowiTnChicamna, a grain silo and flour mill are installed at Salaverry, thetraffic potential of its service area grows in response to certainirrigation and road works, and an appreciable part of this trafficis shipped via Salaverry.

75. If traffic develop by 1968 to the maximum potentialitiesdescribed above, the resulting economic benefits wiould approximateS/142 million a year as shown in Appendix 8. This would give areturn of 19.4,S after amnortization on a 40-year basis.

76. The project is thus potentially capable of producing benefitscoTmmensurate with its cost. They are conditional, however, on anunber of uncertainties affecting traffic diversion and regionaldevelopment. Eventually there should b- sufficient traffic towarrant the planned capital expenditure, 'Whether it will developwithin the next 10 years is arguable.

X. FUTUREi J AC 1-j.T AT ThA PORT OF SALA7tA'IRi±UY

77. As brought out in Section IX, the cost of the project is notjus-tified by the economTic benefits that can be expected to be engenderedin -the near future. However, the plans of the project could be used asthe basis for future development of the port. Thus, at this juncture,the Peruvian Government might find that the condition of the existinglighterage pier is such that its replacement may soon be necessary andinst-ead of actually reconstructing this pier, the Government might fincdit advisable to construct the coastal shipping pier outlined in the proj-ect., together with reclaiming part of the shore area to make room for agradual improvement of warehouse and yard facilities. Considerationmight also be given to the need for including the new oil pier in thisfirst stage of whha-t may be looked upon as a phased development of theport. Tle financial resources earmarked for work at Salaverry could pre-sumably be applied to the carrying out of such a development scheme, wlhichcould be expanded as, and when, future traffic trends become rmore defirlite.

XI. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOCIiENDATIONS

766 The present organization is satisfactory.

79. The pro:ject is sound from an engineering point of view. Prelim-inary design has been done by corgpetent Consultants well-experienced insuch work. Final design and supervision of construction would be entrust-ed -to the same Consultants. -Host of the work should be carried out by con-tracts awarded af-ter the invitation of international tenders.

8Bo. Sufficient funds would be available from charges now levied ontraffic passing through Peruvian ports to pay the local currency costs ofthe project and to meet the debt service of the requested loan providedtha-t the Government arranges for the Directorate to retain its presentsources of revenue; that none of this revenue would be diverted to non-port uses, and that the Directorate appropriately controls its futurecanpital expendit3re on other norts.
