Beschreibung

The project involves the construction and initial operations of a new deep-water port at Nigg Bay, located 1 km south of the existing port of Aberdeen in Scotland.

Ziele

The new port facility at Nigg Bay will be developed in direct response to the capacity constraints at the existing harbour. It will accommodate the largest offshore service and support vessels over 170m in length, serving the offshore oil and gas sector as well as cruise ships over 200m in length. The facility will be constructed to allow future development to provide for larger roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) and roll-on/roll-off passenger (Ro-Pax) lifeline ferries to Orkney and Shetland.
