Tomorrow's needs

The long-term growth of the world population and the global economy is driving the worldwide expansion of maritime transport. The volume of container transport has doubled in the past few years, and raw material and cargo transport is expected to experience long-term growth.

Maritime transport is vital to every economy, and countries are consequently investing in their ports. From Shanghai to Rotterdam, they are doing everything possible to create enough port capacity.

Van Oord specialises in port maintenance and expansion. We are experts at constructing and maintaining harbour basins and channels, port sites and quay walls.
