GRONINGEN SEAPORTS

Ports and sites

Groningen Seaports is the port authority for the port of Delfzijl, Eemshaven and the adjoining industrial sites. The organisation provides the complete package of port services to its industrial and commercial clients, from logistics and infrastructure services to the issue and maintenance of the sites in both port regions. As well as the two excellently equipped ports, Groningen Seaports manages the industrial sites around the ports and at other areas in the Delfzijl/Eemshaven region. Various clustered business sites are located on the sites, including a chlorine-related chemicals cluster with Nobian and its alliance partners as important players. Also, a large part of Eemshaven has been earmarked for the development of energy-related industry with large energy producers such as ENGIE, NorNed, Vattenfall, TenneT, and RWE. And that attracts energy consumers as well: Google builds the largest data center of Europe in Eemshaven.

Mission statement

Groningen Seaports creates clusters and partnerships based on the concepts of “circular”, “the biobased chemical industry” and “energy/energy-related” in a responsible and sustainable manner, in order to provide employment, value and a good quality of life for existing and future customers and other interested parties within its management area and in the Northern Netherlands.
