Blue Water Shipping has signed a three-year extension of its port services agreement with Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy at Port Esbjerg.

The agreement continues a long-standing partnership between the two companies at the port – a key hub for offshore wind logistics – providing high-quality port logistics and operational support. 

“Securing this renewal is a testament to the strong relationship we have developed with Siemens Gamesa over the years,” said Per Jensen, director port service at Blue Water. “We are honoured by their continued trust in our capabilities, and look forward to supporting their work in renewable energy through our port services.” 

HLPFI reported earlier in April that the fairway to Denmark’s Port Esbjerg has now been fully deepened. The upgrade enables access for larger vessels, increased cargo volumes and new opportunities in both the energy and defence sectors. The increased depth allows the port to accommodate significantly larger and heavier vessels. It now expects to double its cargo volume over the next decade. Moreover, future offshore wind installation vessels and components are becoming larger and heavier. The new fairway should allow the port to maintain its position as Europe’s leading port for offshore wind shipments.
