Abstract: In the dynamic global container market, the top 10 ports controlled 33% of the total of 852 million TEUs in 2022, where the Port of Santos Complex (BRSSZ) holds the 46th position, handling approximately 4.5 million TEUs, with an annual storage capacity estimated at 5.6 million TEUs. (ALPHALINER, 2023; UNCTAD, 2023). Although PIANC´s terminal planning guidelines provide a general equation for estimating terminal capacity (PIANC 158, 2014), this research aims to enhance dynamic capacity modelling and analysis by incorporating the logistic breakdown of cargo mix and establishing statistical premises. The primary objective is to present a technical analysis of capacity utilisation, serving as a strategic tool for both commercial and operational intelligence economic studies. This research used the Port of Santos logistic operators´ competition as a case study, introducing an analytical framework that distinguishes between static and dynamic capacities across theoretical design and operational planning approaches. Data collection involves a comprehensive survey of technical information and the processing of economic indicators using statistics from masterplan reports, ANTAQ and SPA databases mainly. The results provided a technical data sheet and economic analysis of the container terminals at the Port of Santos, grounded in infrastructure surveys and dynamic capacity utilisation. In conclusion, the study emphasises the importance of adopting a strategic port intelligence perspective, focussing on the breakdown of the logistic flow quay-yard-gate and the modelling of the storage capacity. Recognising the critical trade-off between supply and demand, the findings guide decisions on opportune moments for investing in terminal asset expansion, influenced by monitoring competitors´ capacity utilisation rates.
