Hvide Sande expands its port facilities

Hvide Sande Port is taking a new step in its development with the establishment of a modern quay facility in the West Harbour. The 115 meter long Northwest Quay, with 8,000 square meters of paved quay street and storage area, supplemented by retaining walls for handling bulk cargowill strengthen the port's capacity and flexibility in line with growing cargo flows and upcoming offshore activities. The facility is also being prepared for shore power, so that both SOV vessels and other ships can connect, which supports the industry's green transition. Sweco is the consultant and CG Jensen is the contractor behind the project. The first construction works are expected to start in November/December 2025, and the quay facility is expected to be completed in the autumn of 2026. The municipal self-governing port, owned by the Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality, intends to meet the need for increased imports of raw materials and support the large offshore wind projects expected in the area in the coming years.
