2019

The tender documentation relating to the new cruise terminal in Copenhagen is being made public
today.

On Monday, Minister for Transport Benny Engelbrecht visited the Port of Copenhagen for a meeting with Danish Ports and Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP). The main topics for discussion were the Danish Ports Act and the green transition, and the Minister was also given a tour of the port.

Malmö Industrial Park will be at Logistics & Transport – the Nordic region’s leading trade fair for everybody working with freight flows – in 2019 too. Malmö City and CMP will occupy a joint stand to show why Sweden’s best logistics location is in Malmö.

Now that the cruise season can be summarised, it can be revealed that CMP is continuing to break records. This year’s contender is Visby, where the number of arrivals increased by 40 per cent. At the same time, Copenhagen is consolidating its position as Northern Europe’s major destination.

Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP) and DFDS have reached an agreement to establish a shore power facility in Copenhagen, which means that the Crown Seaways and Pearl Seaways vessels will be able to receive electricity from land. Shore power facility reduce emissions of air contaminated particles such as NOx, SOx and particulate matter, which goes hand in hand with the ambitions of both CMP and DFDS to actively contribute to a greener Copenhagen.

CMP is participating in the sustainability event, C40 Mayor Summit, which is visiting Copenhagen in October

A vitally important part of our work is the continuous inspection of our quays. In the ordinary situation, the inspection of quays is performed from a boat, where one checks from the sea side that the quays are in a satisfactory condition. However the most recent time it was time to check the quays in Norra Hamnen, we chose to test a new, innovative way to conduct the inspection.

On Tuesday, 25 June 2019, Copenhagen Malmö Port and By & Havn held a public meeting about effects on the environment in connection with the relocation of the container terminal and the establishment of a new cruise terminal in Ydre Nordhavn.

On 25 June at 18.00-19.30, together with By & Havn, CMP will be holding a public hearing as part of the environmental impact assessment process concerning the relocation of the container terminal and the establishment of a new cruise terminal at Ydre Nordhavn in Copenhagen.

The world’s leading logistics trade fair, Transport Logistic, will be held in Munich on 4 - 7 June.

By & Havn and Copenhagen Malmö Port wish to establish a container terminal and a new cruise terminal in Ydre Nordhavn and at the same time make the harbour deeper off the new terminals.

Guiding principles and signposts – this is often how the ”point” of a company’s values is described. Achieving them entails involving all employees – and being able to constantly demonstrate how the values are a part of everyday life.

The 2018 cruise season represented a major boost for Gotland. The number of arrivals increased by 80 per cent compared with the previous year.

From April, containers being transported in and out of the terminal in Copenhagen will be registered photographically and digitally rather than manually. The experience will be used in the forthcoming terminal in Outer Northern Harbour.

The employer’s organization Sveriges Hamnar and the Dock Workers' Union have come to an agreement earlier today. Therefore, the port conflict has been solved effective immediately.

In February, Copenhagen Malmö Port, CMP, handled a timber load in Swede Harbour; it was the first unloading of timber in the bulk harbour in over 12 years.

CMP regrets that the port conflict has escalated between the employer’s organization Sveriges Hamnar and the Dock Workers' Union in connection with the Dock Worker’s Union having issued notice of a total work stoppage in all ports in Sweden from March 6 at 00.00 and until further notice.

As a port, it is of the utmost importance that we have knowledge of the condition of our quays as they are essential for running our operations. In the past few weeks, a diving team from MTE has dived all around our entire operations in Malmö to inspect the quays.

In 2018, Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP) took the initiative to draw up a report on the environmental impact of cruise ships on the immediate surroundings of Langelinie in Copenhagen.

Freight handling in Northern Harbour has become more salty, at least temporarily.

CMP is very likely to be affected by the lockouts announced by the Transport Workers’ Union today, since CMP in Malmö is one of the ports that has received strike alerts from the Dock Workers' Union.

CMP is increasingly investing in fossil-free solutions, most recently in electric or biogas powered cars
