The Danish seaport completed (on time & under budget) the Connecting Europe Facility-funded NORTHERNSEALYTS project that saw its fairway dredged from 9.3 to 12.8 metres.
To that end, over 3.7 million cubic metres of seabed material was relocated along the 21.6-kilometre route through Grådyb.
Thanks to this and other recently completed investments, the Port of Esbjerg expects to double its cargo turnover over the next decade.
"We are already seeing that several partners and companies within the maritime sector are in need of ports that can accommodate significantly larger vessels. This is not something in the future - it is here and now. And Port Esbjerg is ready," commented Dennis Jul Pedersen, CEO, the Port of Esbjerg.
