BSF takes
on the organization of bulk cargo delivery, offering reliable solutions using modern vessels and full control at all stages.
Bulk cargo transportation through the port of Saint Petersburg is the delivery of loose, liquid, and roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) cargo by sea in large volumes via the leading Baltic port. Bulk carriers and tankers make it possible to ship tens to hundreds of thousands of tons at a time, making this format optimal for wholesale supplies of raw materials and finished products. BSF organizes bulk cargo delivery using modern vessels, handling vessel selection and controlling all stages — from loading to discharge at the destination port.
The port of Ust-Luga is one of the most technologically advanced and deep-water ports in the Baltic Sea: its depths and approach channels allow it to accommodate large-tonnage vessels with drafts of up to 13.7–15 meters and load up to 200,000 tons of bulk or liquid cargo per vessel call. This makes it a convenient point for handling large bulk carriers and tankers for exports and transit via the Baltic.
Bulk carrier shipping is the maritime transport of loose and unpackaged bulk cargo — from sand and crushed stone to coal, ore, and grain — which is loaded directly into the vessel's holds. Specialized bulk carriers feature several separate holds and loading/unloading systems, allowing different materials to be transported simultaneously on a single vessel while controlling storage conditions, including humidity and, if necessary, temperature.
In the port of Ust-Luga, such operations are particularly convenient due to its developed infrastructure: terminals are equipped with conveyors, transshipment equipment, and grabs. The port's total throughput capacity for various types of cargo exceeds 170 million tons per year, enabling efficient handling of large flows of bulk cargo.

This format is particularly advantageous for agricultural enterprises, mining companies, and construction organizations in Saint Petersburg and the Leningrad region that need a low-cost maritime channel for supplies to Europe, Asia, Scandinavia, and the Americas — without the cost of containers or packaging.
BSF helps small and medium-sized businesses leverage the benefits of bulk logistics by arranging routes through Saint Petersburg. The port is connected to the railway network and federal highways, including the M11 route, making it easier to deliver goods from central Russian regions to terminals and accelerating both exports and imports.
