Abstract
Passenger and accompanying cargo-passenger maritime transportation on the Baltic Sea acts as systematic elements of the Baltic transnational macro-region. Ships that meet various environmental requirements today operate the ferry routes. The task of ecological safety assessment when introducing new ferry routes takes on special urgency. The paper contains analytical data of the marine ferry transportation industry, the main trends of the industry development. The analysis of the main ferry companies is performed and the main variables for estimating the level of possible pollution of the Baltic Sea are determined. Models for calculation of navigation autonomy by taking into account dimensions of allowable sewage and dry garbage are given. Based on the performed analysis of intensity of operation of sea ferry lines the forecast of areas of the Baltic Sea in which there will be an increase of ecological load is made. The necessity of development of information-measuring system for the assessment of the ecological situation of the Baltic Sea on the main directions of the sea ferry lines is substantiated. The structure of information-measuring system for monitoring of ecological situation at performance of sea ferry transportations is offered.
