Creation of a port capable of accommodating Post-Panamax Size Ships

 

ADC has completed a concept design for Anaklia Port and Free Industrial Zone. The design will bypass competing ports in the region with superior connections to existing rail and road infrastructure, state-of-the-art equipment and communications infrastructure, berthing for 10,000 TEU vessels, flexibility for multiple cargo and vessel types, and eco-friendly practices. Capital expenditures for each phase of the Port have been estimated according to the Conceptual Design.

 

Major port design aspects are the following:

Optimized land footprint (less than 40% of total 1,000 hectares).

Flexibility for multiple cargo and vessel types (Panamax, Handymax, Aframax).

Maximized facility throughput (intermodal, modern STS cranes, automation).

Minimized waterfront (dry bulk and liquid piers on breakwater).

Eco-friendly sustainable practices.
