The North Adriatic Ports Association (NAPA) is an association of five North Adriatic seaports: Port of Koper, Port of Ravenna, Port of Rijeka, Port of Trieste and Port of Venice. Total troughput of the five NAPA ports is 101.44 million tonnes (2009).[1]
In March 2010, the NAPA was established by port authorities of Trieste, Ravenna, Venice and Koper in Trieste with an aim of asserting position of the ports in respect of the European Union and its transport patterns.[2] The Port of Rijeka joined the NAPA in November 2010.[3] The NAPA aims to harmonize information systems and organizational setup of the member ports in order to attract as much shipping to the area as possible. The project is scheduled to be completed by 2013.[4]
