In the work, within the framework of a new model for the development of the Russian Far East, the trends in the development of seaports for the period from 2000-2019 are studied. In this vein, a theoretical and methodological platform has been studied, which is used in the analysis of the relationship between the port and the region’s economy, and an assessment of the economic effects for the region from the implementation of large projects in the medium term has been carried out. A quantitative analysis of the interdependencies between the specialization of the port and the regional economy was used. It has been established that the implementation of these projects in the medium term will not have a significant impact on the port region: the economic effects will gradually decrease, and the negative consequences will increase. Leveling transport costs through tax incentives of the Free Port of Vladivostok, on the one hand, will create competitive advantages for Russian cargo in the international market, and on the other hand, will stimulate a negative impact on port regions. The economic activity of the ports will not cause a chain reaction of industrial production growth in the port region. Consequently, ports can act exclusively as ports that affect the economy of the port region only through an increase in the volume of their work. For this reason, the priority issue in the development of coal ports in the medium term is the creation of modern specialized terminals with reliable environmental protection, which would combine social, economic and environmental values.
