A new integrated terminal at the Maasvlakte


Hutchison Ports and Terminal Investment Limited (TIL), the terminal branch of MSC, are working on a joint project to develop a new container terminal at Maasvlakte in Rotterdam.

 

It will be built in the Europahaven, which already houses the Hutchison Ports ECT Delta terminal and the Hutchison Ports Delta II (the former APMT-R site). These two facilities on the Delta peninsula will form part of the new container terminal. The Port of Rotterdam Authority decided to redevelop the quay walls for this project on its own behalf.

 

The terminal is expected to begin the first phase of operation in 2027. Leo Ruijs, CEO of Hutchison Ports ECT Rotterdam said that “the new terminal will consist of five deep-sea berths with a total length of 2.6 km."

 

Allard Castelein, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority, added: “After the redevelopment, the terminal's expected capacity will be 6 to 7 million teu." (sh)
