关于葫芦岛市的市情介绍：
【概述】 葫芦岛经济开发区北港工业区是辽宁沿海经济带“五点一线”重点发展区域之一，位于辽宁“五点一线”最西端，地处葫芦岛港和锦州港之间，规划面积35平方公里，海岸线全长32公里，与天然不冻良港葫芦岛港港区一体，沿锦州湾带状布局，占据锦州湾岸线总长的70%，具有广阔的发展空间和巨大的发展潜力。
北港工业区位于东北和华北两大国内经济区的交汇点上，北与资源大区内蒙古相连：向东承接沈阳中部城市群的辐射，距沈阳240公里；向西与京、津、唐连结，距北京420公里。辐射东北亚经济圈。
北港工业区与天然不冻良港葫芦岛港零距离，港区一体。南距秦皇岛港80海里，西距天津港290海里，北距锦州港4海里，距营口港63海里，东距大连港100海里。葫芦岛港水深港阔，自然条件极佳，吞吐能力到“十一五”期末将达到5000万吨。
京沈高速公路、国道102线、京哈铁路和秦沈电气化铁路横贯全境，疏港公路与全省滨海大通道在工业区内实现交汇，构成比较发达的立体交通体系。依托公铁交通干线，从工业区4小时内可以通达北京、天津、沈阳、大连等重点城市。工业区距锦州机场30公里，距山海关机场150公里，1天内可抵达全国各大城市。
【前景展望】 到2010年，基本完成老工业基地调整、改造、振兴任务，打造四大基地。

【沿海开放总体思想】1、“三点一线”布局。葫芦岛在落实辽宁省“五点一线”开放开发战略中，要围绕锦州湾的开发，以北港工业区为起点，由东向西，沿258公里的海岸线，构建若干个开放先导区，以点带面，成面连片，最终形成“三点一线”沿海开放开发新格局。所谓“三点”是指：“东部区”为锦州湾的葫芦岛经济开发区，“中部区” 为兴城曹庄——沙后所经济区，“西部区”为绥中高岭——万家经济区。“一线”是指：以海岸线和沿海交通干线为纽带，将上述“三点”逐步扩充成面，集中连片开发，开成沿海经济带。该经济带覆盖我市中心城区和4个县区城区，土地面积3200平方公里，约占全市的三分之一；人口120万，约占全市的五分之二。
2、中部、西部经济区情况。刚才，我简要地介绍了东部区的核心区域——葫芦岛北港工业区的情况。下面， 我再介绍一下中部区和西部区的情况。这两个区都有一定的工业基础，和东部的北港工业区一样，都享受省级开发区的政策。 中部区为兴城曹庄——沙后所经济区。规划面积20平方公里，其中起步区10平方公里。该经济区依托菊花岛30万吨原油码头、现代渔业园区等，重点发展石化、仓储、冶金、制药、现代农业等产业。 西部区为绥中高岭——万家经济区。规划面积20平方公里，其中起步区10平方公里。依托止锚湾、36—1油田、绥中电厂煤码头等，重点发展造船及船舶配套、灯具制造、木材加工、现代物流等产业。此地连结河北省秦皇岛市，目前，我们两市正在共同建设经济开发区。
