Extensive on-site investment

WILHELMSHAVEN. At a press conference in early April, NPorts Managing Director Holger Banik announced that the company is planning to invest roughly another four million euros at their Wilhelmshaven site, Hooksiel, in 2024, with another approximately six million euros allocated for the maintenance, renovation and repair of the existing port structures. “The past two years have been quite dynamic, which has changed the site significantly. The site has been expanded into an energy hub, and the high demand for port space requires a rethink as to what is possible.” Consequently, a universal LNG jetty will be built south of the Voslapper Groden transshipment facility. In addition, the Hooksiel lock and Nassau Bridge are due to be renovated – the former without disrupting operations – and the railway systems in Rüstersieler Groden switched entirely to LED.
