This is the first expansion phase after the renegotiation process for the Terminal XXI concession, which, in its final configuration, will feature a 1,750-meter quay to be built by phases.
The Port of Sines said that Terminal XXI is currently an important transhipment HUB and already represents an important port of entry and exit in the Iberian hinterland, being an integral part of the main international maritime routes where the largest container ships in operation in the world are located.
This investment reinforces the terminal’s capacity to receive several megacarrier ships simultaneously, thus increasing its operational offer while reinforcing its importance for the economic development of the region and the country.
