Port of Rotterdam

About Port of Rotterdam

The Port of Rotterdam Authority manages, operates, and develops the Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Europe’s largest seaport. It oversees nautical access and safety, spatial planning and land leasing, and the construction and maintenance of quays, terminals, and fairways, as well as environmental and operational oversight within the port area. The port hosts a major cluster of refineries, petrochemical and bio-based plants, tank storage, container terminals, and bulk logistics, and serves as a key hub for crude oil, oil products, chemicals, LNG, containers, and dry bulk. It offers deep-water access and extensive pipeline, rail, inland waterway, and road connections to European industrial regions.

The Authority collaborates with industry, utilities, and public bodies to strengthen supply chains and advance the energy transition. Focus areas include hydrogen production and distribution, CO₂ transport and storage, electrification and shore power, efficiency and digitalization, and circular and low‑carbon industrial development. Revenues largely derive from port dues and long-term land leases, which are reinvested in infrastructure, safety, and sustainability.
