The BTE has developed a general framework for undertaking port impact studies in Australia, with a case study of the Port of Fremantle measuring the impact of port-related activities on the Western Australian economy in 1998–99.

Compared with 1998–99, the 1999–2000 5-port total container traffic, measured in TEUs, increased by 14% to 3.14 million TEUs.

The five-port average crane rate was 24.9 containers per hour in the September quarter 2000. This is the highest crane productivity recorded since the series commenced.
