Port and infrastructural development
28
Continued investments
– Continued investments to enhance the leading role and performance of the port
– Investing in future port development
– To improve the attractiveness of a port for individual port users or for groups of users
– Opportunities to improve the competitive position
29
Continued investments– The port of Antwerp is ready to enhance its leading position
– Investments in foreland and hinterland of the port
– Investments in hard and soft values
– Hard : infrastructure investments and further development
– Soft Values : strategy / organisational aspects / working conditions
– Double approach
30
Future investments in infrastructure
Deepening of the river ScheldtSecond access to the Left BankAdditional terminal capacity (Saeftinghe Development Area)Road infrastructureRailway infrastructureBarge transport
31
Deepening of the river Scheldt
– Tidal-independent sailings for vessels with a draft up to 13.10 meters (before: 12.30 meters)
– Up to 75% of all currently tide-dependant vessels will be able to call Antwerp without restrictions
– Wider tidal windows for seagoing vessels with a draft of < 16 metres
32
Second access to the left bank
– Second lock for seagoing vessels accessing the left bank
– Operational by 2013-2014
– Biggest lock worldwide:
dimensions: – length: 500 metres– width: 68 metres– depth: 17.80 metres
33
Container capacity availableDeurganck dock
– Most recent dock– 5.3 km of quay – > 7 million TEU
capacity– Free capacity available
today !
34
Capacity development : a port for the futureSaeftinghe Development Area
– In order to ascertain the growth potential of the port, an extension scenario is selected (construction of a large scale container tidal dock)
– But not only containers !– Saeftinghe Development
Area– an area with maritime,
industrial, logistical and distribution functions
35
Capacity development : a port for the futureSaeftinghe Development Area
– Area for maritime, industial and logistic services
– Total surface ca. 1.070 ha– Market consultation with
very strong interest in container handling and tank storage.
– Trimodal polyvalent area– Single most important long
term project for the port of Antwerp
– Economic crisis will not result in abandoning the project
