Efficient port of call
for mega-carriers
Bremerhaven is one of the world's leading container terminals. The
roughly five-kilometre long quay on the River Weser has sufficient
water depths for seagoing vessels and can accommodate the largest container vessels in the world. In the competition for container
volumes and shipping lines, the port has consistently defended its 4th
position in the European ranking for years.

World-class
automotive hub
Reliable handling, sophisticated logistics, comprehensive technical
services with high quality standards, excellent rail and road connections – these facts sum up the automotive terminal in Bremerhaven.
The European market leader has operating areas and parking space for
120 000 cars.

Ideal hinterland connections, a large number of specialist companies,
extensive handling and storage sites as well as crane capacities that can
cope with practically any requirements have earned Bremen a leading
position amongst the European project and break bulk terminals.

A class of its own –
bulk goods in Bremen
Bremen is one of the leading ports that still handle conventional ocean
freight such as coffee and cocoa. But the important segment of cargo
handling also includes building materials, fertilisers and feedstuffs,
grain, ores, mineral oil as well as coal and coke. The location’s trump
cards are special equipment, first-class handling and universal expertise.

Flagship European
logistics location
There is no doubt about it: Bremen is one of the leading logistics
locations on the continent. A booming container and automotive hub,
a freight village that is respected throughout Europe, major logistics
and distribution centres as well as excellent scientific and training
institutes all speak for themselves. The logistics sector accounts
directly and indirectly for some 75 000 jobs in the region.

The future is green
The ecological concepts of Bremen's ports may be highly diverse, but their objective
is clear: to keep the environmental impact of port operations and maritime logistics
to a minimum impact. The disposal of shipboard waste and the provision of substitute
sites for quay and lock construction projects are just two good examples. Alternative energy concepts – such as the planned construction of an LPG filling station in
Bremerhaven – round off the list of green port activities.

Water depths that can accommodate seagoing vessels, excellent infra
structure, a powerful industrial cluster – Bremerhaven can offer the
wind energy industry ideal conditions. A loading zone for large-scale
components on the banks of the Weser will be available by 2016. At the
25-hectare Offshore Terminal Bremerhaven (OTB), wind energy plants
will be pre-assembled, stored and transhipped.

Bremen and Bremerhaven stand for first-class competence when it comes to the
qualification, further education and training of a specialist workforce for the port,
logistics and transport industries. Five colleges and universities and more than
150 research institutes not only teach professional subjects, but also provide
solid basic education. Over 1000 port and logistics companies provide vocational
training in more than 80 different occupations for their own requirements.

Bremen ranks amongst the most important
universal ports in Europe and the terminals in
Bremen and Bremerhaven can handle virtually
every kind of freight: containers and cars,
general and bulk cargo, dangerous goods and
project cargo. Moreover, Columbus Cruise
Center in Bremerhaven is one of the most
modern and efficient terminals for handling
cruise liners.
The assets of the maritime logistics centre
of Bremen/Bremerhaven are many and
diverse: excellent overseas and hinterland
connections, profound logistics expertise, outstanding communications and IT competence,
a highly qualified and motivated workforce as
well as countless opportunities for specialist
and advanced training.
tainer vessels, car carriers and refrigerated
fruit vessels and is responsible for roughly 80
per cent of the total freight throughput of the
ports. Wind energy is another sector which is
becoming increasingly important. Thanks to
water depths for seagoing vessels, excellent
infrastructure and the systematic development
of a highly efficient industrial cluster, Bremerhaven looks set to become one of the primary
European centres of the wind energy industry.
Bremen-City, on the other hand, specialises
in conventional break bulk and heavy-lift
cargo (e.g. project cargo, steel and steel products, wood and wood products) and handling
bulk commodities (e.g. ores, coal and grain).

Brem.INVEST-Anzeige 180x130_:-
The excavation of a vessel from the 1st century
AD proves that Bremen was already involved
in shipping long before the city was first men
tioned in an official document (782 AD). The
first fully equipped harbour basins, complete
with cranes, sheds and railway tracks, date
back towards the end of the 19th century.
Bremen’s first free port – Freihafen I (Europahafen) – was inaugurated in 1888 and was the
largest and most modern harbour anywhere
in the world at that time. In 1877, a group
of merchants founded Bremer LagerhausGesellschaft (BLG) as a central location where
they could store their wares close to the water,
instead of their being spread all over the city.
The venture proved to be a successful business
idea and in 1888 BLG was entrusted with the
operation of the entire new free port. Bremen
soon flourished thanks to its large harbour,
11:27 Uhr
Hemelinger Hafen, which is located above the
Weser weir and was developed as „Weserhafen
Hemelingen”, handles more than 20 per cent
of the total throughput resulting from inland
shipping at the ports of Bremen.

Bremen – Conventional
handling and logistics
The terminals at Neustädter Hafen specialise
in handling conventional cargo: this is where
project cargo, industrial plant, steel products
and pipes are loaded and discharged, as well
as forest products such as paper, board, pulp,
plywood and sawn timber. The freight village
in the immediate vicinity is one of the city’s
flagship projects and served as the model for
dozens of similar facilities in Germany and
the rest of Europe. Bremen’s freight village
currently holds second place in the European
ranking and continues to lead the field in
Germany.
Home to more than 50 companies, Industriehafen accounts for around half the total cargo
throughput in the city of Bremen. The ocean
freight handled here ranges from steel and
steel products to timber, project cargo, containers, automotive and industrial plant components right through to bulk commodities,
such as ore for steel production, mineral oil,
construction materials and waste products.
The power station at the port also benefits
from the opportunity to use the separate coal
handling terminal.

The business community in Germany’s smallest Federal
Land boasts a highly diverse range of companies in the field
of transport and logistics. Bremen’s logistics providers
offer their customers not only international land and
sea transport, but also a wide selection of services in the
contract logistics segment, primarily food, beverages and
tobacco, automotive, wood products, consumer goods and
aerospace. A total of approx. 1 278 hectares of industrial
sites are available for logistics services in Bremen.

Bremen Freight Village (GVZ)
Situated in the centre of the North range,
Bremen’s freight village (GVZ) boasts a number of outstanding features: it has an ideal
location at the midpoint between the ports of
Bremerhaven, Wilhelmshaven and Hamburg,
has extensive sites and trimodal connections.
Yet it all begin quite unspectacularly: in1985,
six logistics companies in the Bremen district
of Niedervieland joined forces as part of a nationwide pilot project aimed at making more
use of rail for the carriage of freight. Initially
the subject of controversial debate, Bremen’s
freight village has meanwhile evolved into
the most successful project of its kind in Ger-
many. With 150 enterprises and a workforce
of more than 8 000 specialists, it is now the
hub of one of the major industrial locations in
the region. This logistics cluster is generally
regarded as a role model.
This is also evident from an in-depth survey
which compared freight villages throughout
Europe: the freight village in Bremen ranked
second amongst the 70 locations which
were examined in detail, confirming its
rightful place in the “Champions League”.
In addition to the extensive sites available
for logistics, transport, handling, storage
and service-sector enterprises, its great
competitive advantage is attributable not least
to the excellent transport infrastructure with
intermodal terminal and extremely efficient
networking capacities.
The focal point of the freight village is its intermodal terminal, which combines road, rail
and inland waterway. These are rounded off
by the facilities at nearby Bremen Airport.
With a total area of approx. 500 hectares
and approx. 1.2 million m2 indoor area for
logistics, production and wholesale, Bremen’s
freight village offers attractive premises
for the transport and forwarding business
with excellent synergy potential. The usage
concept is specially geared to production and
wholesale companies from the food, beverage and tobacco sector with high logistics
requirements.

Bremen High-Bay Warehouse
Storage capacity:
200 000 pallets in high bays
30
The three towers of the high-bay warehouse
soar majestically above all the surrounding
buildings in Bremen’s freight village: each
is 146 metres long, 70 metres wide and 42
metres high. Development of the 120 000 m²
site began in 2002 and it is meanwhile one of
the largest and most modern logistics complexes in Europe, a network hub for millions
of pallets carrying goods to and from the
warehouses for Tchibo. In keeping with the
company’s slogan „A new world every week”,
the high-bay warehouse supplies a constantly
changing range of merchandise to more than
50 000 sales outlets in Germany and Europe
and also attends to replacement deliveries.
Most of the goods arrive from overseas in
containers, some already on pallets, others
as break bulk in cardboard boxes. Palletised
goods are inspected and transferred to the
fully automatic high-bay warehouse via electric overhead conveyors. Loose goods first
pass through an automatic palletising station.
The high-bay warehouse handles more than
1.5 million pallets per annum, attending to
storage and order picking in accordance with
the customer’s instructions. The goods are
then taken by truck directly to the Tchibo
branches in the north of Germany or to
regional distribution centres, or deliveries are
alternatively handled via the parcel centre.

times and are then allocated a specific time
slot. The high-bay warehouse in Bremen is
meanwhile a virtually fully automated logistics
systems, as the goods themselves already determine the processes. On a seemingly endless two-level network of conveyor belts, the
cardboard boxes hurtle towards the „marriage
station”, where automatic palletising equipment rapidly creates stable blocks of goods
in accordance with the prescribed alternating
layer system. This allows a throughput of
4 500 cartons or 110 pallets per hour.
The palletised goods then undergo a contour
inspection and are labelled before the overhead
conveyor system takes them to one of the
three high-bay towers, where automatic rack
operating equipment takes over the pallets and
puts them into storage. A central computer
monitors each movement. The warehouse
towers can accommodate 200 000 pallets.
The BLG Logistics Group is currently investing
more than EUR 50 million in preparation for
the takeover of logistics services for Tchibo's
online business, which is also to be handled
at the high-bay warehouse in Bremen as
from 2014. To cope with the new volumes, the
expansion involves an automated small-parts
warehouse, a sorting building and conveyor
bridges linked to the high-bay warehouse.

Logistics centres for
the Automobile industry
Two large logistics centres in Bremen’s
freight village provide a complete range of
services for the automobile industry. Vehicle
parts and components from manufacturers
and approx. 300 suppliers are delivered by rail
or road to the logistics centres, where they
are inspected and stored according to individual article.
All these items are intended for the assembly
lines of German manufacturers overseas. The
logistics providers in Bremen put together the
required assortment of parts, pack them in
containers and ship them to the destination
countries in accordance with the instructions
of the production plant. The primary destinations are South Africa, North and South
America and a few Asian countries. Tasks
handled by the logistics companies in Bremen
include the pre-assembly of structural components and the preservation of vehicle parts;
they also ensure that glued bodywork parts
are cured properly.
Supplies to the overseas assembly lines are
executed either part-by-part or CKD (completely knocked down). In part-by-part shipment, identical components are compiled to
form complete container loads, whereas in
CKD the entire components for six vehicles
are combined as one container load. Automobile manufacturers assemble vehicles
overseas in order to avoid high duties for
the import of finished vehicles or to satisfy
national regulations on „local content” in the
recipient countries.
31
Assembly is managed in response to demand,
which means that the pace is constantly
changing. The logistics service packages
include managing and monitoring all flows
of goods and data (supply chain management)
and cover the entire supply chain, from purchasing and transport to value-added services.
The principle is subject to a continuous improvement process, as the manufacturers impose
increasingly stringent requirements on the
logistics providers. Cars currently consist
of approx. 3 000 individual parts, but that
number is expected to be reduced to just a few
hundred in future in order to make assembly
far more efficient. The suppliers and logistics
companies will then be responsible for a
greater share of pre-assembly and component manufacture.
Automotive manufacturers bank on outsourcing
to increase productivity and improve quality
whilst simultaneously reducing costs. This
also enables them to operate more flexibly.
They save investments in logistics, avoid supply
bottlenecks and have variable instead of fixed
costs, so that outsourcing their logistics
activities achieves lean production.

Neustädter Hafen
Quay length: 2 400 m
Water depth: up to 11.0 m
Throughput 2012: 4.3 million tonnes
Neustädter Hafen is one of the main conventional cargo centres in the north of Europe.
The service portfolio is aimed primarily at
project cargo, iron and steel products, forest
products, handling containers and heavy-lift
with a floating crane which can cope with
weights of up to 650 tonnes.
The customers of Neustädter Hafen also use
the 260 000 m² covered area and 800 000 m²
outdoor area for long-term intermediate
storage of their products. The facilities enable
them to assemble large components on quays
which are accessible by seagoing vessels and
thus optimise preproduction processes.
One of the crucial factors for the success
of Neustädter Hafens is that it pools all the
benefits of a universal port at one single terminal complex. This harbour handles roughly
four million tonnes of cargo per annum.
The most recent harbour to go into operation
on the left bank of the Weser was inaugurated
in 1965 and consists of Hafenbecken II, a turning basin in front of the harbour, numerous
vast sheds and extensive outdoor storage
areas.
An old cog dating back to the Hanseatic era
was discovered when the harbour basin was
dredged in the 1960s. As the classical merchant
vessels from that age were previously only
known from drawings, the discovery of an
original vessel was hailed as a scientific and
historic sensation. The vessel remains were
carefully preserved, missing parts added and
the finished product can now be seen in the
permanent exhibition at the German Maritime
Museum in Bremerhaven.

In addition to numerous cargo handling
companies, Industriehafen is also home to
forwarding, manufacturing and food-pro
cessing businesses. It also offers a wide
range of services over and above cargo
handling. Container services are an important
element and range from stuffing and stripping, goods handling inclusive of labelling,
order picking, assembly, repair and inventories management, right through to container
leasing, cleaning and supply. Customised
containers are also produced and marketed.
There are also many companies at Industriehafen which specialise in packaging export
goods for land and ocean transport. They
provide expert packaging not only for ordinary
export goods, but also for entire industrial
plants.
The growth sector of wind energy has also
made its mark on Industriehafen: the Ambau
company in Kap-Horn-Strasse recently began
consolidating the steel tower segments for
wind turbines.
The diverse activities at Industriehafen are not
only evident from the heterogeneous mix of
companies, but also in the ownership situation. Roughly three quarters of the land sites
and a small proportion of the water areas
are privately owned. The remaining areas are
owned by the Federal Land of Bremen and,
in most cases, rented or leased to private
companies.
In recent years, the companies located here
have made substantial investments in their
buildings and equipment and optimised

With more than 50 business enterprises located on an area of 390 hectares, total annual
throughput of just over 6.8 million tonnes,
around 2 400 directly and roughly 600 indirectly related jobs, the facts and figures for
Industriehafen are highly impressive. Virtually
all kinds of ocean freight can be loaded and
discharged at the quays here: building materials, timber and mineral oil, steel and steel
products, containers, project cargo as well as
automotive and industrial plant components.
It is thanks to Industriehafen that Bremen
has succeeded in defending its position as an
important location for fish meal and general
cargo. Approx. 15 per cent of the total cargo
handled at the ports in Bremen and Bremerhaven cross the quays at Industriehafen in
the west of Bremen. This figure accounts for
half the total throughput in Bremen city. With
estimated annual revenues of EUR 2.5 billion,
the companies located behind the lock at
Oslebshausen make a significant contribution
to Bremen’s economy.

their efficiency – for the benefit of the location, which is one of the key economic factors
in the city of Bremen. In 2006, the Weserport
company inaugurated a container and shortsea terminal, which handles primarily barges
and feeder vessels.
Every year, approx. 1 600 seagoing vessels
and 3 600 barges call at Industriehafen. To
ensure that this remains a cornerstone of
Bremen’s port and logistics industry, an ambitious master plan has been drawn up in close
cooperation between bremenports and the
local companies. It not only reveals growth
opportunities and optimisation potential, but
also proposes specific measures for revitalising this economic location, such as structural alterations, boosting the service sector,
expanding the share of intermodal transport
and bundling marketing activities.
The first infrastructure project involves
widening the entrance to Harbour A and
the first pile was ceremoniously driven into
place in October 2010. Since then, the sloping
embankment on the land side of the harbour
has gradually been replaced by a vertical
embankment wall. New sheet piling has been
installed along a total length of 150 metres.
The next projects to safeguard the future of
Industriehafen will begin in the course of this
year: the harbour basins are to be deepened
by half a metre to a total depth of 10.5 metres
by 2015, enabling panamax vessels to deliver
15 to 30 per cent more cargo to Bremen. At
the same time, the Hüttenhafen basin will be
expanded to a width of 46 metres.
The seven basins at Industriehafen are located on the right bank of the Weser and are
linked to the river by Oslebshausen lock. The
narrow Kap Horn harbour forms the border
to the Weser. A further harbour, Werfthafen,
which was used by the former shipyard AG
Weser, is located on the other side of the lock.
Waterfront Bremen, a modern shopping centre, and a new industry park have meanwhile
been built on the site of the former AG Weser.
Mittelsbürener Hafen lies to the north of
Industriehafen and is used by ArcelorMittal
steelworks to handle bulk goods.

Cargo is no longer handled at Hohentors
hafen on the left bank of the Weser. With only
a few exceptions, the businesses that operate
there – which include shipping companies,
a repair yard for barges and several trading
firms – are not dependent on closeness to
the port. Hohentorshafen evolved from the
former Sicherheitshafen and Woltmershausen Canal. Nevertheless, it plays a significant
role in the history of Bremen’s ports: Sicherheitshafen, the former safe port for ships to
overwinter, is regarded as the birthplace of
the BLG Logistics Group. In 1877, this harbour
basin offered excellent conditions for estab
lishing the first cargo handling company.
This area is six times the size of Bremen’s
historic Old Town, measures approx. 300
hectares and runs along the bank of the River
Weser for a length of five kilometres, from the
city centre to the grain facility (Getreideanlage).
For the past ten years, this site has seen the
development of Bremen’s Überseestadt, one
of the most ambitious urban development
projects in Germany. The conversion of the old
dockland sites on the right bank of the Weser
into a modern and vibrant district in the heart
of Bremen has created space for trade and
industry, service enterprises, cultural and
leisure amenities as well as residential
properties. With approx. EUR 350 million public
development funds and EUR 2 billion from
private investors, the project has also set a new
benchmark in monetary terms. More than 450
companies with approx. 9 000 employees have
meanwhile opted for these attractive waterside
premises and the unique flair of this new district. Modern architecture, excellent transport
connections and scope for flexible use provide
an ideal basis to ensure the ongoing positive
development of Bremen’s Überseestadt.

European automotive hubs and is evolving into a key port
for the offshore wind energy industry.
Bremerhaven – Container,
cars and innovations
Bremerhaven is 32 nautical miles from the
open sea, which means a trip of roughly twoand-a-half hours up the estuary. The port
can be accessed by vessels with a draught of
up to 12.8 metres irrespective of the tides.
The terminal handles mainly containerised
and rolling cargo. The international port of

Past
In 1827, the city of Bremen purchased 84
hectares of land at the mouth of the Weser
from the Kingdom of Hanover in order to build
a „Bremer Haven”, i.e. a harbour for Bremen.
This had become necessary because the
River Weser had silted up and was no longer
navigable by large seagoing vessels all the
way to Bremen. Initially, the new harbour was
not very successful, as Bremen’s merchants
preferred to load and unload their wares in
the city rather than at the mouth of the river.
Nevertheless, the construction of Bremerhaven was to prove a milestone for Bremen’s
maritime development.
and 1950. This required the construction of
more harbour basins, and in 1872 work started
on the harbours known as Kaiserhäfen. They
were later joined by Kaiserschleuse lock and
the predecessor of Lloyd shipyard, followed
by the 347-metre long Nordschleuse lock and
Nordhafen. The legendary Columbuskaje was
built on the banks of the Weser in 1928.
The onset of container transport in the late
1960s opened up totally new prospects for
Bremerhaven, when the first container ships
came to Bremen across the Atlantic and
sailed their way to victory on all the seven
seas. At the same time, specially designed
vessels with large ramps began to take rolling
cargo directly on board. Both these methods

The history of Bremerhaven automotive terminal is closely linked
with the international success story of German automobile
manufacturers – and with the excellent performance by Japanese
and Korean cars in the global market.
Bremerhaven gradually evolved from an
export terminal to a world-class automobile
hub. In peak years, more than two million
vehicles cross the quays here. The Auto
Terminal has enough operating and storage
area for 120 000 cars, incl. covered storage
for 45 000.
well over 100 000 „German” vehicles, e.g.
from BMW and Mercedes, are imported into
Europe through Bremerhaven every year. In
addition to the outdoor sites, there are also
several multi-storey car parks available for
vehicle storage, each of which can offer 6 000
cars protection from the elements.
The products supplied by European manufacturers are exported via Bremerhaven
primarily to destinations in the USA, East
Asia and the Middle East, while the imports
come mainly from Japan, Korea and the
USA. The German automobile manufacturers
dispatch their exports either fully or partly
via Bremerhaven. Most of the export vehicles
arrive in the port on block trains. Following

Specialists at the Auto Terminal’s technical
centres deal with several hundred thousand
cars per annum. The cars are first dewaxed
and cleaned, before undergoing a pre-delivery
inspection. Minor damage in transit is repaired
and the vehicles are then retrofitted if necessary to comply with licensing regulations in
the individual destination countries.
Any additional features ordered by the customer, such as sunroofs, satellite navigation
systems, air-conditioning, leather seats,
designer wheel rims or spoilers, are installed
in Bremerhaven. Special series also undergo
final assembly here at the terminal; for companies which normally produce vehicles in
large series, this is cheaper than doing so
themselves.
The unique strong point of Bremerhaven’s
Auto Terminal is the complex range of services
available there. Four crucial factors account
for its success: top quality, continuous logistics, good transport connections and full
service. It is a question of offering organisation,
management and control of the entire transport chain as well as all related service
elements. The Auto Terminal boasts certified
quality throughout the entire chain.

COLD STORE
The cold store of the BLG Logistics Group is
located directly beside the fruit and container
terminal and currently has storage capacities
for approx. 33 000 pallets of refrigerated and
frozen goods. The volume has more than
doubled since it first went into operation in
1985, making this the largest commercial cold
store in the region. Its location directly next
to the container terminal is a geographical
advantage for handling import and export
orders: it not only eliminates the need for
intermediate transport, but also means that
the storage, forwarding and distribution
processes are all concentrated in one place,
together with official requirements such as
customs clearance and veterinary inspections.
53
Most of the goods arrive in containers from
Asia, the USA, Latin America, New Zealand,
Russia and Africa and consist mainly of raw
materials for the food industry as well as
finished products packed in retail sales units.
The stored goods are primarily fish, poultry,
meat, fruit and vegetables.
The service portfolio of the cold store includes
comprehensive import and export logistics
services for refrigerated and frozen products.
Supply chain management covers everything
from overseas production right through to

approx. 1 000-metre-long quay, in compliance
with stringent security and quality standards.
Spacious check-in areas and waiting rooms
which can accommodate roughly 4 000 passengers, modern equipment for transporting
and loading their baggage as well as covered
passenger walkways make the CCCB an
excellent tourist service and maritime competence centre for passengers, shipping companies, tour operators and ship’s agents.

Fischereihafen
Once famous as the largest fishing port on the
continent, this harbour in the south of Bremerhaven is now home to a highly diverse mix of
business sectors, such as blue biotechnology,
offshore wind energy and the food industry.
The roughly 480-hectare multifunctional
Fischereihafen site, which is home to around
400 companies with 9 000 employees, is one of
the largest industrial sites in the Federal Land
of Bremen. There are still many signs that remind visitors that this was once a fishing port.
Ship departures 2012: 51
Most frequent callers:
MS „Astor“, MS „Artania“, MS „Albatros“
to Scandinavia, the North Sea, the Baltic and
the Mediterranean. In 2012, 51 cruise liners
called at Columbuskaje and 60 000 passengers embarked and disembarked.
A large number of medium-sized companies
process fresh fish and seafood alongside big
names such as Frozen Fish International
(Käpt’n Iglo fish fingers), Deutsche See, Frosta
and Nordsee. Several logistics companies
have also set up business here, for instance
packaging and warehousing firms as well as
forwarders specialising in reefer transports.
In other words, the entire supply chain of the
fish industry is represented here at Fischereihafen. Hardly surprising, then, that Bremerhaven ranks amongst the most important
locations in Germany for the fish trade.
55
The waterside premises at Fischereihafen are
also an attractive option for the booming offshore wind energy industry, as they are ideally
equipped to ship the large, heavy wind turbine
components. Bremen has already upgraded
parts of the quays to make them capable of
handling heavy lift cargo. Some parts of the
site were filled in with sand and the rail tracks
refurbished. In summer 2011, the Fraunhofer
Institute for Wind Energy and Energy System
Technology (IWES) inaugurated a second test
rig for rotor blades with lengths of up to 90
metres at Fischereihafen.
In addition to all these industrial uses, the old
fish factory buildings and the former fish railway station have been converted into a tourist
attraction, „Schaufenster Fischereihafen”
which offers a selection of diverse cultural
amenities, art galleries, restaurants and pubs.

The USP of the new terminal is that the production plants and shipping harbours are located right next to each other and that reserve
sites of more than 200 hectares are available
for new businesses and expansions.
To enable jack-up vessels to operate from
Bremerhaven as from now, bremenports has
already provided handling facilities for heavy
wind farm components at the international
port in Bremerhaven. Special reinforcements
known as “elephants’ feet” have been installed in the riverbed of the Weser at the
southern end of the container quay so that the
jack-up vessels can anchor. The harbour floor
in Kaiserhafen III in front of the ABC peninsula
first had to be refurbished by replacing the
soil. Bremen invested a sum of roughly EUR
10 million for these interim solutions.

Quay length: 500 m
Berths: 2 to 3

Offshore wind energy is an increasingly important factor for the north German economy
and the installation of around 5 000 wind
turbines is planned over the medium-term.
As a result, tens of thousands of heavy components, some weighing up to several hun
dred tonnes, will have to be transported out
to sea over the coming years – and Bremer
haven will play a crucial role for that task.
The city has already established a strong
position as the international competence
centre for this booming industry, thanks to its
efficient infrastructure and outstanding business sites for the development, production
and export of wind farms. Numerous specialists work for major plant producers such as
REpower Systems, Areva Wind, PowerBlades
and WeserWind, manufacturing rotor blades,
nacelles, foundation elements and hubs for
multi-megawatt turbines. The Fraunhofer
Institute for Wind Energy and Energy System
Technology (IWES) has opened premises in
the immediate vicinity.

has generated strong demand for port and
logistics sites that meet its particular requirements. With the aim of making Bremerhaven
the premium European location for wind energy and logistics, the Bremen's government
is having a dedicated terminal planned and
built in the south of Bremerhaven. The new
Offshore Terminal Bremerhaven (OTB) will
be available for use as a heavy-lift, assembly
and transhipment location by the year 2016.
Up to 160 offshore wind turbines per annum
are to be shipped from the 25-hectare loading zone for operation out at sea. The new
terminal on the Weser will consolidate and
expand Bremerhaven’s leading position as a
manufacturing and logistics location. The total
infrastructure costs are estimated at EUR 180
million and will be borne by the Federal Land
of Bremen. Construction is scheduled to begin
in 2014.

LogInPort
A 306-hectare site near the international
ports is now home to the „LogInPort”, an
industrial park developed specially for
logistics, industry and port-related services.
Its proximity to the container and automotive handling areas and the good transport
connections via road, rail and water attract
in particular companies from the logistics
industry, who invest in property in the LogIn-
Port. For example, the Schnellecke Group,
an automobile supplier from Wolfsburg, has
signed a lease for a huge logistics shed. Other
properties have already been built for Comet
Feuerwerk GmbH and the Benthien Group.
Vacant sites are still available for other companies wishing to set up business here.

The maritime future of the north of Germany
also depends on Wilhelmshaven, where the
JadeWeserPort, a joint project of Bremen
and Lower Saxony, went into operation in
September 2012. The principal operator is
the Bremen-based Eurogate Group and the
terminal in Wilhelmshaven is its third location
on the North Sea. APM Terminals holds a 30
per cent share in the operating company.
Germany’s only deep-water port has a water
depth of 18 metres, offering ideal nautical
conditions for container shipping. After a
short trip up the estuary, even the largest
container vessels with draughts of up to
16.5 metres can reach JadeWeserPort at
any time, irrespective of the tides. Road and
rail hinterland connections link the port to
the main European economic centres. The
new quay in Wilhelmshaven can handle four
mega-container ships and feeder vessels
simultaneously, using up to 8 container
gantry cranes. It is a common-user terminal
which is available to all shipping companies
worldwide.
Throughput capacity is approx. 2.7 million
TEU per annum. Around two thirds of the
containers refer to transit cargo, t ranshipped
in Wilhelmshaven en route to and from
smaller European seaports. JadeWeserPort
is intended primarily as a transhipment
terminal for feeder traffic to Scandinavia, the
Baltic and Russia. Next to the 130-hectare
terminal site, there is a 160-hectare logistics
zone for port-related industrial and logistics
companies as well as a freight village. A
further 400 hectares are available for development if necessary.
Lower Saxony and Bremen have invested
approx. EUR 950 million in the construction of
the new terminal and the operator Eurogate
has invested roughly a further EUR 350 mil
lion in suprastructure.

In terms of qualified vocational training and

leading centres of excellence. Five colleges and
universities and more than 150 highly reputed
research institutes teach cutting-edge professional knowledge and provide solid basic
education. If it were not for the graduates of
these institutes, many regional and national
companies would be unable to provide top
class services.
Security takes
top priority
Security · Shipbuilding
62
Amongst other things, the new regulations
demand fully secured port facilities which
are permanently guarded and which allow
monitored access by authorised persons only.
They prescribe cargo inspections and random
X-ray examinations for container loads. Every
seaport terminal has to appoint a specially
trained port facility security officer (PFSO),
who is responsible for compliance with the
prescribed security measures.
The major terminal operators at the ports of
Bremen have a dedicated security department
and also offer their expertise as a service to
other companies. This includes developing
and updating port facility security plans,
organising training seminars as well as basic
and follow-up training sessions for security
assistants and employees in positions with
safety impact.
The remit of these security officers goes far
beyond the measures required by the ISPS
Code published by IMO. Dealing with highly
diverse dangerous goods at the port, for
example, calls for a high level of specialist
knowledge. They also have to be familiar with
general occupational health and safety aspects, such as fire prevention, to protect both
people and goods.
Shipbuilding
on the Lower Weser
Banal but true: shipyards are the place where
ships are built. But building new vessels is
only one aspect of the work performed by the
shipyards and their suppliers in the region
of Bremen and Bremerhaven: every ship
has to call in at the yard at regular intervals
for servicing or modernisation. Sometimes,
ships undergo a complete conversion or
are lengthened so that they can carry more
freight or passengers. Bremerhaven enjoys
an excellent international reputation for such
projects, thanks to the Lloyd shipyard and its
record of sometimes spectacular conversions.
Three cruise liners belonging to a Norwegian
shipping company were completely cut apart
and new mid-sections installed to lengthen
them significantly.
Other shipyards at the port include Rickmers
Lloyd, Bredo and Motorenwerke Bremerhaven.
Together with the numerous suppliers in the
region, they offer a unique competence cluster in maintenance and repairs. The Lürssen
Group in Bremen-Nord specialises in the construction of modern superyachts and naval
vessels. Another specialist shipyard, Abeking
& Rasmussen, is located on the other side
of the Weser, in Lower Saxony. The F
assmer
yard in Berne is known primarily for the con
struction of numerous lifeboats.

Sustainable Management –
Successful Performance
Global warming, rising sea levels, climate
change are subjects that are on everyone’s
lips. All over the globe, nature and the environment are at loggerheads with business
interests. Environment protection plays a
central role in Europe, especially in Germany,
and „green” logistics concepts are being
developed for all aspects of port operations,
shipping and land transport in order to reduce
ecological impact as much as possible. Bremen’s
ports are also taking action to improve marine
environment protection.
Becoming a green port involves highly diverse
factors: one example is the disposal of shipboard waste, where Bremen has set international standards. It has also achieved a
particularly high level of ecological compensation measures and executes sophisticated
projects to compensate for unavoidable impact
on the balance of nature resulting from the
construction of new quays and terminals.
Targeted ecological commitment also comes
from the companies that work at the ports:
for example, the operators use cutting-edge
technology to reduce the noise level at the
container terminal, and the shipyards collect
and treat washing water from dock operations.
Environmental considerations are also an
important issue at bremenports, the port
management company. The hydraulic engineering and environmental experts create substitute sites to compensate for the environmental
impact of quay and lock construction projects.
Other employees develop alternative energy
concepts for the company’s own premises.
The material dredged from the harbours is
disposed of ecologically and in some cases
treated for further use. bremenports is not
only involved in the planning of Bremerhaven
Offshore Terminal, which will be built on the
banks of the Weser by 2016 to handle wind
farm components, but also attends to the
search for an operating company.

The terrorist attacks in the USA on 11 September 2001 shook the world. In the aftermath,
the security regulations in force at airports, in
underground transport systems and at ports
were tightened up significantly. The ISPS Code
(International Ship and Port Facility Security
Code) drawn up under the overall supervision
of the International Maritime Organisation
(IMO) was implemented on 12 December
2002. The Code contains a number of security
measures which also impose obligations
on the ports in Bremen und Bremerhaven.
The primary objective is to protect ships and
port facilities against terrorist attacks. The
terminals in Bremerhaven were the first in
Germany to obtain ISPS certification.

Bremen and Bremerhaven are amongst the
most efficient port locations on the continent. World-class container and automobile
throughput, Europe’s leading freight village,
competent service providers in all areas of
logistics and distribution, excellent scientific
and educational institutes – a mixture that
is not often found elsewhere and that really
speaks for itself. Global trade flows travel
many routes – and an increasing number of
them go via Bremen.
The logistics sector accounts directly and
indirectly for some 75 000 jobs in the region,
which is equivalent to every fifth job in Bremen, the smallest Federal Land in Germany.
However, Bremen and Bremerhaven are not
only committed to the ports as an economic
factor. Sustainable treatment of the world’s
increasingly scarce resources is a prime
concern at the quays and terminals. The
target is to reduce ecological impact by port
operations to a minimum.
VIA BREMEN aims to
> raise brand awareness of Bremen as a port
and logistics location,
> systematically place the individual service elements
offered by the different countries in the global market
> and highlight Bremen’s position in the competition
between the ports in the Hamburg-Antwerp range.
The expertise of the maritime service pro
viders in Bremen and Bremerhaven convince
an international clientele time and again.
The port and logistics community at the River
Weser has joined forces behind the location
brand VIA BREMEN, giving the twin ports an
identity in Germany and abroad. The brand
symbolises the quality and diverse portfolio

The planning and efficient execution of port
construction measures – that is the core
competence of bremenports. The Offshore
Terminal Bremerhaven (OTB) is currently
the most important project in the port management company’s portfolio. The new wind
energy terminal on the banks of the Weser in
Bremerhaven is scheduled for completion by
2016 and will provide a high-capacity loading
zone for up to 160 offshore wind turbines per
annum. bremenports is entrusted with overall
management of the project, from finding an
operator, to planning the civil engineering
work and handling the approval processes,
right through to the design and implementa
tion of compensation measures. The operating contract is to be awarded in spring 2014.
Another core area of Bremen’s future investments in the ports refers to the expansion of
rail infrastructure in Bremerhaven. bremenports expects the number of freight trains to
rise to 770 per week by the mid-2020s, compared with an average of around 490 inbound
and outbound trains on the tracks of the
terminal railway in Bremerhaven in 2011. By
summer 2012, that figure had already risen to
630 trains per week, so that the terminal railway infrastructure is rapidly being developed.
Earlier port construction projects, such as
Container Terminal 4 (CT 4) in Bremerhaven
and the new Kaiserschleuse lock, also in
Bremerhaven, bear witness to the extensive
experience of the planning experts, technical
specialists and engineers at bremenports.
Not only could CT 4 be completed 14 months
ahead of schedule, but was also significantly
under budget.
In its capacity of port infrastructure service
provider, bremenports is responsible for
roughly 34 kilometres of quays, 250 kilometres
of railway track at the port, 65 bridges, five locks
and more than nine kilometres of dykes. Its 370
employees are responsible for the development,
expansion and upkeep of the port facilities
and also attend to repairs. They inspect locks,
water areas, embankments, bridges, rail infrastructure, buildings and dykes, conduct tender
procedures, award contracts and perform
maintenance work themselves. The „port caretakers”, as bremenports is sometimes referred
to, also have their own dredging department
to maintain the necessary water depths in the
harbour basins and berths. The company also
operates numerous technical facilities, from
flood barrier to sediment landfill.
Marine environment protection takes top
priority in Bremen and Bremerhaven, which
were amongst the first ports to define precise
standards for the disposal of shipboard waste.
They are also regarded as pioneers in largescale compensation for environmental impact
resulting from the construction of port
facilities. bremenports itself has also opted
for a green corporate policy, as the following
examples show: electricity consumption at the
workshops and offices is kept to a minimum,
a photo voltaic system on the roof of the central port workshop in Bremerhaven generates
green current, and modern LED technology
minimises the power consumption of the lock
signalling systems. It is also in the process
of replacing its company cars with extremely
low-carbon models which emit less than
100 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometre.
The construction of port facilities invariably
has an impact on the environment, which has
to be compensated for elsewhere. In the CT 4
project, for example, roughly 650 hectares
of substitute site were created on Luneplate
to the south of Bremerhaven as a habitat
and refuge for breeding and resting birds, as
well as other rare species of fauna and flora.
bremenports also opts for unusual solutions,
such as a herd of water buffalo. These frugal
animals keep the grass short, which in turn
benefits the bird population.
Some 250 000 cubic metres of sediment have
to be dredged from the harbours every year to
ensure that customers always find sufficient
water depths. The silt is treated before it is
dumped in order to minimise impact on the
environment. In 1990, bremenports introduced
an integrated concept for the disposal of
dredged material and since then has dumped
the sediment at a special facility in BremenSeehausen. Some of the dried material is
used for the construction of dykes or to fill in
harbour basins (Bremerhaven, Osthafen).
bremenports began to practise a new method
of sediment disposal in 2011. In the first stage of
an international cooperation project with the port
of Rotterdam, 60 000 cubic metres of silt dredged
from the bottom of Bremerhaven’s Überseehafen were transported to the Dutch port and
deposited in ‚De Slufter’, an underwater confined disposal facility for dredged material in
the Maasvlakte. The international pilot project
will ease the strain on the limited capacities at
the disposal facility in Bremen-Seehausen.

Over the years, bremenports has acquired
comprehensive know-how in the planning
and construction of complex port facilities.
The engineers have extensive experience
of managing the sensitive infrastructure
of a maritime centre. Moreover, they are
thoroughly familiar with the stringent
European environmental legislation which
repeatedly poses new challenges for anyone
planning a water construction project. Hardly
surprising, then, that there is international
demand for this expertise. Third-party business meanwhile generates income of around
EUR 3.5 million for bremenports, as the port
and environment specialists now provide
services not only for other companies in the
Federal Land of Bremen, but also work on
behalf of public authorities and private enterprises throughout Germany and abroad. The
company systematically markets its services,
whether planning a container terminal in
Minden or monitoring the handling of warranty
claims for new container gantry cranes in
Mauritius. Experts from bremenports provide
consulting services for the construction of
cargo handling facilities all over the globe,
analysing structures, drawing up port development plans and training port professionals
from newly industrialised countries such as
China, Indonesia and Timor Leste.
Working in close cooperation with the business
community, bremenports handles the marketing activities for the ports of Bremen on a
national and international scale, objectively,
professionally and cost effectively. When
maritime experts get together at trade fairs
in Moscow, Shanghai or Munich, Bremen’s
port and logistics industry is sure to be represented. The extensive marketing programme
also includes congresses, workshops and
round tables, some of which are initiated and
organised by bremenports itself. In order to
make port marketing even more effective in
future, the companies at the ports, Bremen’s
Senate and bremenports have agreed on Via
Bremen as the location brand. Under the
slogan „Logistics for your benefit”, the
expertise available in Bremen and Bremerhaven is presented even more strikingly and
assertively.
Highlights of the marketing activities include
prestigious joint stands at leading international
logistics and transport fairs, which provide
port companies of all sizes with whatever
they need for a professional presentation.
The neighbouring ports in the Federal Land
of Lower Saxony have meanwhile followed in
Bremen’s footsteps with their umbrella brand
„German Ports”. Bremen and Lower Saxony
have presented their maritime sectors at joint
stands for several years, a successful example
of effective North German cooperation.
Hamburg is also involved in some areas of the
cooperation.
