Aarsleff Signs Port of Frederikshavn Enlargement Deal

Per Aarsleff A/S has entered into a contract with Frederikshavn Havn A/S for the enlargement of Port of Frederikshavn.

The contract worth DKK 552 million (approx. EUR 74 million) covers phase 1 of a major expansion project for Port of Frederikshavn.

The Port will enlarge and improve its current harbour facilities and develop growing business areas such as the offshore industry, the wind turbine industry and the recycling industry with environmentally friendly decommissioning of ships and oil rigs.

Aarsleff is to establish a 600-metre new quay designed to accommodate high loads, a 30-hectare hinterland area and extend and deepen the fairway to a depth of 12 metres.

The construction will begin in 2016 and the project is scheduled for completion in the spring of 2018.
