What's new?

zeevaart schip
Shipping December 19 . 2024
From 1 January 2025, there will be a restriction on the use of open-loop scrubbers for seagoing vessels in the port of Amsterdam. Open-loop scrubbers discharge polluted washing water into our port waters. By this ban, we contribute to a cleaner marine environment.
Binnenvaart Afrikahaven
Shipping December 18 . 2024
Due to stricter ISPS regulations, it had become impossible to combine the car drop-off point/drinking water tapping point at the mouth of Afrikahaven with a coaster waiting area on the other side of the jetty.
Blauwe kegel 2
Shipping December 18 . 2024
At the cone waiting berths in the Australiehaven, three or four ships were regularly moored alongside on both sides of the jetty. This was not an ideal situation. Therefore, we replaced this jetty for two new jetties.
