Background
The Port of Terneuzen, at the entrance to the Ghent-Terneuzen Canal, covers two thousand hectares. The Port previously welcomed 2,500 ocean-going ships carrying more than 15 million tons of cargo a year that included dry and liquid bulk, oil, oil products, fertilizers, minerals, metals, and ores.[1][2]
Companies like Oxbow make use of the Port of Terneuzen. Oxbow’s joint venture company, OVET B.V., operates one of its major facilities on the northwest European coast in Terneuzen, at Massagoedharbour (or Massagoedhaven). It has a storage capacity of 600,000 metric tons on 160,000 square meters of paved storage area and operates four floating cranes. Terneuzen can accept Panamax size vessels, has 1,400 meters of quay, and includes rail connections. Oxbow responds to storage, transshipment, screening, washing, drying, bagging, technical service, and inventory management requests.[3][4]
