【 摘 要 】

The functioning of the seaports of Vanino and Sovetskaya Gavan is analyzed as a pole of economic growth of the region. The branches of industrial production have been studied and promising industries have been identified, which are estimated as the driver of the economic growth of the Khabarovsk Krai. An assessment of the interrelationships between the activities of the seaports and the economy of the Khabarovsk Territory was carried out. The emphasis is on assessing the volume of cargo produced in the Khabarovsk Krai. On the basis of the author's method, the cost and natural ratio of the transport and economic interrelationships between the seaports of Vanino and Sovetskaya Gavan with industries and regions are determined. The grouping of cargoes into four main categories (raw materials, materials, semifinished products and equipment), which allows to separate raw materials and materials from goods with added value. Effects estimates for the economy of the Khabarovsk Krai, generated by the seaports, are obtained. The conditions for the formation of a port transportation and infrastructure complex as the poles of Khabarovsk Krai's economic growth for the future are determined. In this vein, economic effects are determined for Khabarovsk Krai on three levels: the port area, the port region and other regions. The forecasted estimation of economic effects on three variants for the Khabarovsk Krai is made. The results show that not always economic benefits from a well-functioning seaport are localized in the port region, while negative impacts are spreading in the port region itself.
