On Monday, the Ministry of Economy reported that Anaklia’s deep sea port project, aiming to strengthen Georgia’s standing in global trade, advanced to the next stage, with hydrodynamic testing performed in Copenhagen, Denmark.
“The testing will take several days, and ultimately, we will have a confirmed model for the design,” said Zurab Sitchinava, Director General of the Anaklia Sea Port state company. The procedure is conducted by DHI, which specializes in water infrastructure research, assessing the breakwater’s design and wave resistance using 3D simulations.
“Each detail requires careful consideration, which is why we involve various specialists,” Tim Devolder, Director of Jan De Nul NV’s Georgian branch, noted.
Besides the testing, officials outlined further research plans. “This will ensure the safe entry and exit of ships and year-round port operations,” Deputy Economy Minister Guram Guramishvili said.
