鹿特丹港2000年的货物吞吐量创历史最高记录达3.22亿t,比1999年增加了6.1%,比1998年3.14亿吨的记录增加了8百万t。煤炭转运量上升了26.5%,矿石和废金属料增加了21.5%,石油和石油产品增加14.8%,其他液体散货(主要为化学品)增加了10.8%。唯一的遗憾是集装箱数字几乎未动(减少了1.7%),这在该港的历史上还是首次,主要是因为马士基/海陆公司变更路线和容量以及市场先导EC(欧洲联合码头公司)的重组。 Cargo throughput in Rotterdam reached a record high of 322 million tons in 2000, an increase of 6.1% over 1999 and an increase of 8 million tons from the record of 314 million tons in 1998. Coal transhipment increased by 26.5%, ore and scrap materials increased by 21.5%, oil and petroleum products increased by 14.8%, and other liquid bulk (mainly chemicals) increased by 10.8%. The only regret was that the container numbers were virtually unimportant (a decrease of 1.7%), the first time in its history, mainly due to the reorganization of routes and capacity by Maersk / Land and Sea and the market leader EC (Euronext).
