The Maresia Port Authority (Cartadanian: Autoridade Portuária de Maresia; Charentais: L'Autorité Portuaire Maresiane) is the Maresia state agency responsible for managing the state's six land ports and three seaports, including the Aurillac Terminals, Marée Terminals, and South Maresia Terminals. They oversee all incoming and outgoing cargo to and from the state, using land, sea, and air transportation. The Marée Terminals, the largest of the seaports, is part of an interstate supercomplex with the São Ricardo International Gateway, together making up the largest combined seaport in the world.
In addition to managing the state's ports, the Maresia Port Authority is responsible for promoting and developing economic activities related to the ports, including shipping, transportation, and logistics. The authority also collaborates with other state and federal agencies to ensure compliance with environmental regulations and to improve safety and security in and around the ports. As a crucial component of Maresia's transportation infrastructure, the Maresia Port Authority plays a key role in facilitating trade and commerce both within the state and with other regions and countries.

Economic impact
The Maresia Port Authority has a significant economic impact on the state. It is responsible for overseeing all inbound and outbound cargo into the state by land, sea, and air, which has a direct impact on international trade and commerce. The three seaports managed by the Maresia Port Authority, Aurillac Terminals, Marée Terminals, and South Maresia Terminals, and the six land ports, provide employment opportunities for thousands of people throughout the state, especially in the more industrial south.
In addition, the Maresia Port Authority's management of the largest seaport in the world, the Marée Terminals, is a major source of revenue for the state. The port provides a gateway for the import and export of a variety of goods, including oil, steel, agricultural products, and automobiles (Soleil is headquartered in Maresia and manufactures many of its vehicles in state). This translates into millions of dollars in revenue for the state's economy each year.
Moreover, the Maresia Port Authority plays an important role in the transportation and logistics industry of the state, which is a key driver of economic growth. The Authority's management of the seaports and land ports helps to keep goods and materials flowing in and out of the state, which is critical for businesses to operate effectively.
Projects
O'Shea Globalstock accomodation
In 2008, the Maresia Port Authority constructed a new state-of-the-art container terminal at the Marée Terminals. This new terminal featured advanced automated technologies and was designed to handle what was to be the world's largest container ships. The project cost €6.2 billion and created thousands of jobs during the construction phase and many more once it became operational. The terminal also improved the efficiency of cargo operations at the port, reduced congestion, and increased the capacity of the port to handle growing volumes of international trade. This project was completed alongside the expansion at the SRIG, together known as the Marée Access Terminals Expansion and Deepening Project, or MATED Project.
Incidents
Exotic animals
During a routine cargo inspection at the Maresia Port Authority's Marée Terminals in 1997, port authorities discovered a container filled with smuggled exotic animals. The animals included rare birds, monkeys, and reptiles that were intended for sale on the black market. The Maresia Port Authority alerted local law enforcement, and a joint operation was launched to investigate and apprehend those involved in the smuggling operation.
The investigation revealed that the smugglers had been using the Marée Terminals as a hub for their illegal operations for several months. Working with the Maresia Port Authority, law enforcement officials were able to track down and arrest several members of the smuggling ring, as well as confiscate the animals.
The incident received widespread media attention, and the Maresia Port Authority was praised for its role in stopping the illegal trade of exotic animals. The port authority also implemented additional security measures to prevent future smuggling operations.
