Terminal operator Bergé Logistics has handled the first international shipment of wind towers from the Haizea Wind turbine tower and offshore foundation manufacturing facility at the port of Bilbao, Spain.
The first sections of wind turbines, manufactured by Haizea Wind at its EUR60 million (USD70.28 million) facility, were loaded on board Nomadic’s general cargo vessel Nomadic Hjellestad for onward transportation to the port of Gavle in Sweden.
The 77,000 sq m manufacturing facility was inaugurated earlier this year, and is located at the AZ-2 quay in the Zierbena area of the port.
The facility has direct access to a 21 m-deep berth without dimensional restrictions along the route.
