Business & Finance

Denmark’s Hanstholm Havn has invited bidders to submit their offers for the construction works related to the expansion of the Port of Hanstholm.

Due to the high level of activity in and around the port, a new development plan is in the works, Hanstholm Havn said.

“The expansion of the port, including basins, hinterland, quay walls, water depth, entrance width and the reduction in wave disturbance, is a crucial element in this development,” the official announcement stated.

The design of the works regarding the expansion operations, including both the wave model and sedimentation models, will be carried out by the Port of Hanstholm.

The port has allocated a budget of DKK 450-500 million (around $65 million) for this expansion program.

Deadline for receipt of tenders or requests to participate is March 7, 2017.

The Port of Hanstholm, located in the North Western part of Denmark, is the biggest wet fish port in Denmark and among the top five fishery ports in Europe.
