New turning point for ships at Oldenburg

30.07.2021

OLDENBURG. Since the beginning of May, seagoing and inland vessels on the Hunte near Oldenburg have been benefiting from a new high-performance turning facility. This has a diameter of 165 metres, which is one and a half times the maximum length for a seagoing vessel on the Hunte. „The new turning facility brings clear advantages to shipping and helps make freight shipping greener,“ said Enak Ferlemann, Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure.
