Port Handling

IDEALLY LOCATED ON THE QUAYSIDE

Since the extraction of fossil fuels began in the Danish part of the North Sea some 50 years ago, the Port of Esbjerg has been the principal base for Denmark’s oil and gas activities.
However, thanks to its setting on the Danish west coast the Port of Esbjerg has been a centre for the transportation of goods between Denmark and other European harbours ever since it was founded in 1868. Today it is an international, multimodal transport centre with more than 200 companies and 10,000 people working here, serving as a Scandinavian gateway to the rest of the world.

The facilities of BMS Esbjerg are ideally located with a very short distance to the quayside in Esbjerg. Thanks to the ability to move out quickly combined with considerable knowledge of port related tasks, BMS Esbjerg has numerous assignments at the port every week.

Almost every BMS crane in Esbjerg is specially equipped with an elevating cockpit, making it particularly suitable for port assignments.

These are just a few examples of the diverse tasks that BMS Esbjerg carry out on the port:

  • Loading of potatoes for Blue Water Shipping, a Danish company offering freight solutions by road, rail, sea and air through offices, agents and partners worldwide,
  • Loading of materials for the full-service offshore provider Jutlandia Terminal, a part of the Lauritzen Group providing all requirements for the local exploration and production in the North Sea,
  • Unloading of pipes for Niels Winther Shipping, a leading provider of marine support, logistics and supply chain solutions.

In cooperation with the companies in the port area BMS Esbjerg contributes to meet the objective set by the EC Commission: By 2050, half of all transportation of goods on distances of more than 300 km must be transferred to rail or sea carriage.
