As from Nov 2004, Seaport headed the planning, procurement, and execution of building a 2 million TEU straddle carrier terminal in Zeebrugge, Belgium. The terminal is designed after state of the art principles with advanced operations philosophies ensuring a cost efficient operation. As the project right from start-up was time critical, the assignment as project manager was to direct and coordinate the terminal operator’s internal as well as external resources in terminal design, IT, civil engineering, operations, and procurement towards finalizing the planning, and procurement in 9 months. The total investments are in excess of EUR 80 million.
