The Port of Rijeka Authority plans to grant a concession for the Zagreb Deep Sea Container Terminal in the Port of Rijeka. It has issued tender details, with bidding due to close on 26 April.
The tender for the 50-year concession follows the cancellation of a previous tender for the terminal. One bid was submitted by a joint venture comprising Chinese Ningbo Zhoushan Port Company Limited, Tianjin Port Overseas Holding Limited and China Road and Bridge Corporation. The other was submitted by a joint venture comprising APM Terminal BV in the Netherlands, in cooperation with Croatia-based Enna Logic company.
Rijeka port authority competed the construction of the terminal in May 2019. The 400m long terminal is expected to be expanded. It offers a depth of 20m, enabling it to receive large container ships. The terminal is part of the Rijeka Gateway project.
