Portugal explained that the steel surface was prepared according to the specifications of a new standard that requires the steel to be ‘free of all visible imperfections’ and that the shipyard had difficulties in matching the ship owner's interpretation of this standard.
Portugalski organi so pojasnili, da je bila jeklena površina obdelana v skladu s specifikacijami novega standarda, ki zahteva, da na jeklu ni „nobenih vidnih nepravilnosti“, in da je imela ladjedelnica težave z doseganjem tega standarda na tak način, kot ga je razlagal lastnik ladij.
This led to halts in production and required perfection of work.
Zaradi tega se je izdelava upočasnila in delo je moralo biti opravljeno bolj natančno.
The ‘Marineline’ paint used in the constructions is of a special nature designed to create high resistance to corrosion.
Uporabljena barva „Marineline 784“ ima posebne lastnosti, zaradi katerih nastane velika odpornost proti koroziji.
It requires rounding of corners and very clean surfaces.
Pred nanosom te barve je treba zaobliti vse robove in poskrbeti za zelo čisto površino.
The cure of the paint is performed at very high temperatures (80 to 122 oC) which requires adjacent spaces to remain unpainted if they cannot withhold these temperatures.
Barva se suši pri zelo visokih temperaturah (od 80 do 122o C) in zaradi tega morajo ostati sosednje površine nepobarvane, če ne prenesejo visokih temperatur.
It presents high risks of defects and rejection with the necessary repair and touch-up that can have major implications on the scheduling of works.
Tveganje za nastanek napak in zavrnitev je zato veliko, lahko so potrebna popravila in dodelave, kar lahko zelo vpliva na časovno načrtovanje del.
The Commission accepted in the decision to open proceedings that the supply of steel plates with default, which had to be repaired by the yard, had contributed to delay the project by some 2 months.
Komisija je pri odločitvi o sprožitvi postopka sprejela dejstvo, da je dobava jeklenih plošč z napakami, ki jih je morala ladjedelnica odpraviti, dodatno upočasnila projekt za približno dva meseca.
It appears, further to the information received subsequent to the initiation of procedure, that the above elements had major implications on the scheduling of the project.
Po podatkih, prejetih po začetku postopka, se zdi, da so zgoraj navedeni dejavniki bistveno vplivali na časovno načrtovanje projekta.
The degree of perfection of the steel surface was an essential element in this project which in turn conditioned the application of the special coating.
Stopnja popolnosti jeklene površine je bila pri tem projektu bistvena in je vplivala na nanos posebnega premaza.
Further, it is noted that such elements of complexity could not have been anticipated by the shipyard in so far as they depended on third parties (plate defects, quality level requirements of the ship owner) and the yard had no experience with the particular type of coating used.
Treba je tudi opozoriti, da takšne stopnje zahtevnosti ladjedelnica ni mogla predvideti, saj je bila odvisna od tretjih strank (napake na ploščah, zahteve lastnika ladij glede kakovosti), poleg tega pa ni imela izkušenj s posebno vrsto uporabljenega premaza.
In the light of the foregoing, the Commission considers that in accordance with Article 3(2) subparagraph 2 of Regulation No 1540/98 an extension of the three year delivery limit can be approved for the two product/chemical tankers built by Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo, S.A based on the technical complexity of the project.
Glede na zgoraj navedene ugotovitve Komisija meni, da se v skladu z drugim pododstavkom člena 3(2) Uredbe lahko odobri podaljšanje triletnega dobavnega roka za tankerja za prevoz proizvodov/kemikalij, ki ju je zgradila družba Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo S.A, zaradi tehnične zahtevnosti projekta.
The Commission also notes that in the light of this conclusion, it does not consider necessary to further examine whether the reasons invoked by Portugal could qualify as exceptional circumstances, unforeseeable and external to the company within the meaning of the above Article. .
Poleg tega glede na to sklep ugotavlja, da se ji ne zdi potrebno proučiti tudi, ali bi lahko razlogi, na katere se je sklicevala Portugalska, šteli za izjemne okoliščine, ki so za družbo nepredvidljive in zunanjega izvora, v smislu zgoraj navedenega člena.
The extension of the delivery deadline is authorized up to the actual delivery dates of the vessels (29 October 2004 and 5 February 2005).
Podaljšanje dobavnega roka se odobri do dejanskega datuma dobave plovil (29. oktober 2004 in 5. februar 2005) –
The three-year delivery limit foreseen in Article 3(2) of Council Regulation(EC) No 1540/98 is extended for two product-chemical tankers built at Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo, to 29 October 2004 for ship C 224 and 5 February 2005 for ship C 225.
Triletni dobavni rok, določen v členu 3(2) Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 1540/98, se za tankerja za prevoz proizvodov/kemikalij, ki ju je zgradila družba Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo S.A, podaljša do 29. oktobra 2004 za plovilo C 224 in do 5. februarja 2005 za plovilo C 225.

The Shipbuilding Regulation expired on 31 December 2003.
Uredba o ladjedelništvu je prenehala veljati 31. decembra 2003.
However, it must still be used to assess requests for the extension of the delivery time limit, since the issue is related to aid granted under this Regulation and since the Shipbuilding Framework, effective since 1 January 2004, does not provide any guidance for such requests.
Vendar jo je treba še vedno uporabljati pri ocenjevanju prošenj za podaljšanje dobavnega roka, ker je to vprašanje povezano s pomočjo, dodeljeno v skladu s to uredbo, in ker Okvir za pomoč ladjedelništvu, ki velja od 1. januarja 2004, ne določa smernic za take prošnje.

GENERAL CONTEXT OF THE RESTRUCTURING OF ABX
SPLOŠNO OZADJE PRESTRUKTURIRANJA ABX
The principal stages of the procedure
Glavne faze postopka
Further to the more detailed information provided when the procedure was initiated, the Commission notes briefly that between 1998 and 2001 the Belgian railways (‘SNCB’) acquired a collection of individual companies.
Kot dopolnitev podrobnejših informacij, predloženih med uvedbo postopka, Komisija na kratko opozori, da je družba Société nationale des chemins de fer belges (SNCB) med letoma 1998 in 2001 kupila vrsto individualnih podjetij.
At the time, the collection had not yet been legally gathered together under a holding company, but nevertheless it formed the ABX Logistics network, comprising some 107 consolidated subsidiaries worldwide, 89 % of whose sales were made in Europe, 6 % in Asia and 5 % in America.
Takrat ta podjetja še niso bila pravno združena v holding, vendar so kljub temu tvorila gospodarsko mrežo ABX LOGISTICS, ki je po svetu štela okoli 107 konsolidiranih hčerinskih družb, ki so 89 % svoje prodaje dosegle v Evropi, 6 % v Aziji in 5 % v Ameriki.
This case concerns the restructuring of the network notified by the Belgian authorities on 17 February 2003.
Ta zadeva obravnava prestrukturiranje navedene mreže, ki so ga belgijski organi priglasili 17. februarja 2003.
The main information notified and the doubts expressed by the Commission when the procedure was initiated/extended are recapitulated below.
V nadaljevanju so povzeti glavni posredovani podatki in dvomi, ki jih je Komisija izrazila pri uvedbi postopka.
Notification of 17 February 2003
Priglasitev z dne 17. februarja 2003
The original restructuring plan provided, firstly, that SNCB's 107 ABX subsidiaries, which were owned by different ABX holding companies, were to be consolidated under a general holding company.
Prvotni načrt za prestrukturiranje je na eni strani določal, da je treba 107 hčerinskih družb ABX družbe SNCB, ki so bile v rokah različnih holdingov ABX, združiti pod splošen holding.
Secondly, since the subsidiaries ABX Logistics (Deutschland) GmbH (‘ABX-D’), ABX Logistics Holding (Nederland) BV (‘ABX-NL’) and ABX Logistics (France) (‘ABX-F’) were in difficulty, they were to be restructured in order to become viable again.
Na drugi strani bi bilo treba hčerinske družbe ABX LOGISTICS (Deutschland) GmbH (v nadaljnjem besedilu „ABX-D“), ABX LOGISTICS Holding (Nederland) BV (v nadaljnjem besedilu „ABX-NL“) in ABX LOGISTICS (France) (v nadaljnjem besedilu „ABX-F“), ki so v težavah, prestrukturirati, da bi bile ponovno sposobne preživetja.
The operational restructuring measures consisted essentially in (i) reorganising the legal structures by integrating all the legal entities of the group under one lead company, (ii) disposing of and closing assets, and (iii) other operational measures in Germany, the Netherlands and France with a view to further improving operating profit.
Operativni ukrepi prestrukturiranja so bili zlasti sestavljeni iz preoblikovanja pravnih struktur z združitvijo vseh pravnih oseb skupine pod isto glavno družbo (i.), prenosa in zapiranja osnovnih sredstev (ii) ter drugih operativnih ukrepov v Nemčiji, na Nizozemskem in v Franciji, da bi dosegli dodatno izboljšanje poslovnega rezultata (iii.).
To this end, the Belgian authorities had notified the Commission that SNCB would provide most of the finance needed for the restructuring.
V ta namen so belgijski organi Komisijo uradno obvestili, da bo družba SNCB prispevala glavni del potrebnega financiranja za to prestrukturiranje.
The amounts initially notified were EUR 91,6 million in conversion by SNCB of debt into capital (long-term financing) for ABX-D, -NL and –F, and EUR 140 million in refundable credit (short-term financing) granted by SNCB to the same undertakings.
Prvotno priglašeni zneski so znašali 91,6 milijona EUR dolgov, ki bi jih družba SNCB pretvorila v kapital ABX-D, -NL in -F (dolgoročno financiranje), in 140 milijonov EUR povratnega posojila (kratkoročno financiranje), ki ga je družba SNCB odobrila istim gospodarskim subjektom.
The Commission's doubts as at 23 July 2003
Dvomi Komisije z dne 23. julija 2003
When it initiated the investigation procedure, the Commission provisionally expressed its doubts about a number of aspects.
Komisija je pri sprožitvi postopka preiskave začasno izrazila dvome glede nekaterih vidikov.
Existence of aid: First of all, it expressed doubts about the statement by the Belgian authorities that the disbursement of funds (in the form either of refundable loans or of conversion of debt into equity) by SNCB as part of the restructuring of ABX was an ordinary intra-group transaction and did not constitute state aid within the meaning of Article 87 of the Treaty.
Prisotnost pomoči: Najprej je izrazila dvome glede trditve belgijskih organov, da nakazilo sredstev (v obliki povratnih posojil ali pretvorbe terjatev v lastni kapital) s strani SNCB v okviru prestrukturiranja podjetja ABX pomeni običajno transakcijo znotraj skupine in ne pomeni državne pomoči v smislu člena 87 Pogodbe.
Restructuring — eligibility: The Commission also expressed its doubts about the eligibility of ABX-D, -NL and -F for restructuring aid, since it was not clear how far the rest of the ABX group might support the restructuring firms financially.
Prestrukturiranje – upravičenost: Komisija je prav tako izrazila dvome glede upravičenosti podjetij ABX-D, -NL in -F do pomoči za prestrukturiranje, ker ni bilo jasno, v kakšnem obsegu bi lahko preostala skupina ABX pokrila finančne potrebe podjetij, ki jih je treba prestrukturirati.
Restructuring — viability, distortion and limiting the aid: The Commission also expressed its doubts concerning the financial part of the ‘restructuring’ plan, which proposed to meet the long-term financial requirements (need of equity) of the ABX entities concerned with essentially short-term financing (refundable credit of EUR 140 million).
Prestrukturiranje – sposobnost preživetja, izkrivljanje in omejitve pomoči: Komisija je prav tako izrazila dvome glede finančnega dela načrta za „prestrukturiranje“, ki je predvideval ublažitev dolgoročnih finančnih potreb (potreba po lastnem kapitalu) zadevnih podjetij ABX, predvsem s kratkoročnim financiranjem (povratno posojilo v višini 140 milijonov EUR).
Accordingly, the Commission also doubted that such financing could allow the entities concerned to return to sustainable viability, that the proposed compensatory measures (especially capacity reductions) were enough to avoid distortion of the market contrary to the common interest and that such alleged aid would not enable ABX to have potentially surplus cash.
Zaradi tega je Komisija prav tako izrazila svoje dvome, da bi tako financiranje lahko omogočilo obnovo trajne sposobnosti preživetja zadevnih podjetij, da so predlagani ukrepi (zlasti v smislu zmanjšanja zmogljivosti) zadostni, da ne bi povzročili izkrivljanja trga v nasprotju s skupnim interesom, ter da taka domnevna pomoč podjetju ABX ne bi omogočala, da bi razpolagalo z morebitnimi presežnimi sredstvi.
The Commission also expressed its doubts about the alleged absence of state aid and the compatibility of the (re)investments by SNCB in ABX and the means used to finance them (possible guarantees, cross-subsidies, direct financing, compliance with the directives in force).
Komisija je poleg tega izrazila dvome glede domnevne odsotnosti državne pomoči in združljivosti ponovnih naložb s strani SNCB v ABX kot tudi uporabljenih sredstev za njihovo financiranje (morebitna jamstva, navzkrižne subvencije, neposredna financiranja, upoštevanje veljavnih direktiv).
This was particularly the case with the following measures:
To zlasti glede naslednjih ukrepov:
