A video update on our project in Port-La Nouvelle
The Port of Port-La Nouvelle, in the south of France and the country’s third-largest Mediterranean port, is undergoing a major transformation – enhancing capacity, accommodating larger vessels, and evolving into a regional offshore energy hub.
Port construction and development is one of DEME’s key areas of expertise, and this project perfectly demonstrates how we leverage synergies across the group, combining our dredging, infra, and concessions expertise to realize this major port development. With a 40-year concession and a strong focus on offshore wind and green hydrogen, the Port of Port-La Nouvelle is set to become a leading green port.
As part of this transformation, the port will expand from 60 to 210 hectares, while the water depth will increase from 8.60 m to 16 m, allowing it to accommodate larger vessels.
This port transformation is only possible thanks to the close collaboration between our teams and partners, whose expertise and teamwork are key in this project.
