Projects at the Port of Gothenburg

It is our vision to be the most competitive port in the world. We aim to provide the best possible preconditions for efficient and sustainable trade via the Port of Gothenburg cargo hub. This means that we must continuously adopt an ambitious approach to work on innovation and develop our operations to meet the needs of today and tomorrow. We have brought together the major projects currently under way at the port on this page. 

Climate-smart choices

We work actively to ensure that we make environmentally sound and climate-smart choices in projects involving construction. One example of this is the Skandia Gateway project. During the detailed planning stage for the Skandia Gateway, the idea arose to calculate the volume of CO2 emissions during construction. Measurements were performed using the Swedish Transport Administration’s model for raw material extraction, product processing and transportation to and within the construction site. The result of this was the realisation that by reducing the dimensions, the steel requirement was reduced by 800 tonnes, corresponding to seven percent, or around 2,300 tonnes of carbon dioxide.

PROJECT

Skandia gateway –
Deeper fairways

The Port of Gothenburg is the only Swedish port that can receive the world’s largest oceangoing vessels and in doing so offer direct deep-sea services to other continents. Freight vessels are becoming larger and the fairways leading into the port need to be deepened by around four metres.
