Résumé anglais In the year 1981, the foreign seaborne trade of the Rhône-Alpes region was made of more than 2.4 million tons of imported or exported goods (crude oil excluded) . Many seaports of unloading or of loading were recorded, to the front of which came Marseille. However, the regional sphere of influence of seaports such as Sète, La Rochelle, Le Havre, Calais, Antwerp or Rotterdam was also a relevant fact. This is especially true (and more particularly in the third and fourth cases) when the additionnal factor of the mean value of the goods is considered, a factor of expression of the traffic structure according to the nature of these goods. The classical analysis of the traffic breakdown between seaports is followed by a further approach, using specialization indexes similar to location quotients. The relative share of these regional flows is then related to their global context, wherein the traffics to or from Rhône-Alpes have a variable local impact.
