NPorts’ 20th anniversary: a look back and ahead

Oldenburg. NPorts is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Over the past 20 years, a total of 15 port locations have been expanded, repaired and maintained at a cost of more than 1.5 billion euros. Investment in Lower Saxony’s seaports increased from 2.9 million euros in the first year, 2005, to 117.6 million euros in 2024. “Standing still has never been an option for us, as the importance of Lower Saxony’s seaports has soared over the years,” said NPorts managing director Holger Banik at the annual media conference of Lower Saxony’s seaports in Oldenburg in March. In the weeks that followed, NPorts held press conferences at the individual port locations Wilhelmshaven, Emden, Brake, Norden and Cuxhaven, where Banik and his regional management team – here at Norddeich with Katrin Büscher, Deputy Manager of the Norden branch, and Branch Manager Friedrich Voß – presented further details, including the amount invested in location maintenance and development, the projects that have received the most funds, as well as the measures on the 2025 agenda.
