Big enough to cope, small enough to care Our new port handbook is published at a time of great opportunity for the Port of IJmuiden.

Over the last few years we have implemented a strategic development programme to position the port to attract new business to the area.

Since 2011 we have opened a new container terminal for handling reefer containers to serve our frozen fish handling companies and have built a new cruise terminal in the IJmond Harbour to cope with the dramatic

Vision for the future The Port of IJmuiden is the Netherlands’ premier fishing port as well as the maritime gateway to the Amsterdam North Sea Canal Port Area and home to important industries such as the impressive Tata steelworks.

Companies working in the fishing industry, cold storage, shortsea trades, offshore business and ferry and cruise shipping all play a leading role in their markets.

Promising future Together, the port and local authorities have successfully created new sites and infrastructure and invite companies to invest in a promising future.

In 2011 Velsen/IJmuiden made a vision for 2025. It is a vision with a prospect of a vital community dedicated to the region and determined to look forward to the future. The vision is rooted in past and present. Prominent Velsen-based businesses and their R&D developments are

Opposite the port, the north shore is dominated by the giant Tata Steel complex, which has its own quays for incoming raw materials and outgoing finished steel products.

Meanwhile, the impressive lock gates of the North Sea Canal offer access to hinterland destinations including Amsterdam.

Growth Development of the port really took off after the opening of the IJmond Harbour in 2005. This allowed the port company to widen its scope of activities and begin to attract companies involved in the wind farm construction sector. Already, the port

has played a key role in the construction of two offshore wind farms, with many of the blades and turbines being assembled on shore ready for transport to the wind farm.

Growing demand In 2012 the turning circle in the IJmond Harbour was widened from 220 to 295 metres, leaving the way clear for the construction of the new Felison Cruise Terminal at the head of the harbour –a clear sign of the growing demand from cruise ship operators for facilities to allow them to call IJmuiden.

Prudent investment pays big dividends Prudent investment by Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V. over the past decade has positioned the Port of IJmuiden to become a leading player in the maritime and offshore sectors of the Dutch North Sea region.

The principal investment began in 2005 with the development of the IJmond Harbour, with first-rate waterfront facilities and extensive areas of land for development. This was the start of an exciting new time for the wind farm construction industry.

The new harbour also created new opportunities in other sectors. And, combined with improvements to the port’s access for shipping, it paved the way for construc-

Accordingly, in 2010 the port company put a lot of work and investment into the port’s International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) certification and recertification of the quays in order to continue to meet international safety standards. This ensures that port users and customers continue to have confidence in this aspect of its operations.

Perfect base for wind farm projects With its long and fruitful history as a support and supply services base for the oshore oil and gas industry, it was a natural progression for IJmuiden to become involved in the oshore wind farm sector as well following the opening of the IJmond Harbour in 2005.

Since then, the harbour has been used for two major wind farm projects, in 2006 and 2008, with materials and equipment being stockpiled, assembled, loaded and shipped to offshore sites using local expertise and handling equipment. The success of these ventures has helped the port build a reputation for smooth and seamless operations that is expected to attract similar projects in the coming years.

Wind parks In addition, once the wind parks have been built, they require regular maintenance and support.

They also need to be serviced by special vessels of a very different type from those normally used in the North Sea oil and gas industries.

The IJmond Harbour is ideally suited to this activity.

About 60,000 square metres of open storage has been reserved at the IJmond Harbour for wind farm-related activities. The quay is designed to withstand loads of between 16.5 and 23.5 tonnes per square metre depending on the position. Two specially reinforced

concrete platforms, each measuring about 15 metres by 12 metres, are used for loading wind turbines.

Outlook The Dutch government has ambitions to install 950 MW of wind turbine power in the short term with a further 6,000 MW in the long term by 2020.

The Vestas consortium of turbine manufacturers and the civil engineering company Ballast Nedam won the concession for Offshore Windpark Egmond aan Zee, which was completed in December 2006.

The towers and other components for 36 wind turbines of 3 MW each were assembled onshore at the IJmond Harbour and shipped to the wind park, 15 km off Egmond aan

Promising The Port of IJmuiden sees this as a promising market, based on its positive experience in dealing with this kind of assembly and construction project. There are also many opportunities in the UK sector of the North Sea. The higher costs resulting from longer distances from IJmuiden would be offset by the lower up-front port costs and the efficiency gains already made in IJmuiden.

Key players in offshore industry Serving the offshore industry has been an important business activity for the Port of IJmuiden since the late 1960s. Its ideal location, combined with deepwater facilities and plenty of space onshore for assembly and stockpiling, has attracted a range of leading companies to take up residence in the port.

Clusters In addition, there are clusters of smaller service and supply companies that work together to provide a full range of services to the offshore sector – a kind of one-stop shop, but with each company in the cluster acting as an independent operator.

As well as ASCO Holland, the informally named IJmuiden Port Services group is another example of this type of operation. This group is able to offer a wide range of services, from electronics to engineering and from logistics to towage.

Leading maritime services supplier in region Established in 1876, the same year as the opening of the North Sea Canal, the services company KVSA van Halverhout & Zwart en Zurm端hlen BV has been an integral part of the maritime community in the IJmuiden region ever since.

KVSA (short for Koninklijke Verenigde Scheeps Agenturen or Royal United Ship Agencies) is involved in virtually all areas of the Port of IJmuiden, operating both of the cruise terminals and the ferry terminal as well as providing a range of maritime services that include agency, Customs clearance, forwarding and stevedoring. The company has separate divisions to deal with logistics and telecommunications.

The company also publishes the KVSA Guide, an invaluable source of maritime information for the area, which can be found online at www.kvsaguide.nl.

Expert delivery of offshore logistics services Peterson SBS is an integrated logistics service provider to many of the world’s leading players in the oil and gas industry.

For the southern North Sea the company manages a fleet of 15 supply vessels, ranging in size from 2,000 grt to 3,000 grt, which serve the SNS Pool consisting of nine oil companies. The pool allows each vessel to supply a number of offshore structures in one operation, thus leading to significant cost savings for the oil company.

AEO certification means that the company complies with strict rules on safety and process requirements.

Location provides key advantages for cruise lines A significant rise in the number of cruise ship calls in recent years is a clear sign of the special advantages offered by the Port of IJmuiden.

The port has expanded its facilities to handle this growing demand, with a purpose-built new terminal opened in 2012.

The port welcomed 44 cruise ship calls in 2012 and about 50 calls have already been booked for the 2013 season.

It also benefits from all the facilities and services of a full working port. Moreover, it now has the ability to handle three cruise vessels at the same time.

Both vessels were fully renovated and modernised in 2006 and provide more capacity than earlier vessels on this route. Both vessels were also rebranded and renamed at the beginning of 2011.

The ‘King Seaways’ has a capacity of 1,534 passengers and 600 cars, while

in 1876 the area that now includes the town of IJmuiden was sparsely populated. The only routes for inland maritime trade were via Den Helder to the north and Rotterdam to the south. The North Sea Canal revolutionised the way trade was conducted in the Netherlands.

The entrance to the canal was initially used by fishing vessels plying their trade in the North Sea. This traffic attracted traders and led to more fishing vessels and further growth. Gradually, the maritime and fishing community that was to become the Port of IJmuiden began to evolve.

Key location that shaped history of town and port IJmuiden has a relatively short history as a town and a port, having been created only in 1876 after the opening of the North Sea Canal.

The name IJmuiden simply means ‘mouth of the IJ’. The North Sea Canal links the North Sea with the IJ Bay, the body of water where Amsterdam is located.

Operations Port operations were managed by the governmentowned Staatsvissershavenbedrijf (Fishing Port Authority) until 1989 when the port was sold to the private company Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V.. Local

Dynamic Over the years, Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V. has transformed the small-scale fishing harbour into one of the most dynamic and thriving ports in the Netherlands. Diversification has been the key. Today the port offers first-rate facilities in key areas such as cruise and ferry services, frozen fish handling, wind farm support activities and the offshore sector.

New barge terminal will boost frozen fish traffic The opening of a new dedicated terminal in the Haringhaven is expected to produce a dramatic rise in the amount of frozen fish being transported in containers.

The new terminal, which entered service in July 2011, is operated by Container Stevedoring Ymuiden (CSY), a joint venture by Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V. and the Amsterdam-based Ter Haak Group.

The terminal allows Ter Haak’s Barge Company Amsterdam (BCA) to operate scheduled container shuttle services to hub ports using new barge-handling reach

It is then placed in reefer containers Ever-larger volumes of frozen fish are being shipped in containers, while more and more deep-frozen fish is being delivered to IJmuiden in containers. At the same time, new logistics concepts are being investigated to further expand the potential of the terminal.

CSY will play a significant role in the transhipment of frozen fish in the future. The new facilities have been built to speed up the process of supply and transport of these containers.

Key advantages behind fish auction growth The favourable location of IJmuiden in relation to the fishing grounds is a chief reason behind the growth in sales enjoyed by the fish auction, Hollandse Visveiling IJmuiden BV (HVIJ), a wholly owned subsidiary of Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V..

HVIJ aims to provide ‘value over volume’, which seems to be a recipe for success at a time when landings at all Dutch fishing harbours are down as a result of European Union quota restrictions.

While volumes have, in fact, increased in recent years, IJmuiden’s market share has also increased by up to 10 per cent per year, helped by the decision in 2008 to

HVIJ has used it since 2008 and Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V. is one of its owners.

Buyers can bid at multiple auctions simultaneously without moving from their office. This reduces the need for traders and produces better prices for the local fishing communities.

Waterfront location is key asset for steel works Tata Steel in IJmuiden manufactures hot rolled, cold rolled and metallic coated steel for many industries in Europe and beyond.

Formerly known as Koninklijke Hoogovens, the IJmuiden Steel Works was established in 1918 on the north bank of the harbour mouth. This location gives the IJmuiden plant a key advantage because Tata Steel is able to receive raw materials such as iron ore and coal directly on its premises.

Deepsea Bulk carriers of up to 200,000 dwt capacity can be accommodated at the plant’s deepsea quays, while

Investing in confidence and capacity The dynamic climate of investment now being enjoyed by IJmuiden is due in no small measure to the redevelopment and restructuring work that has been carried out in many under-used areas of the port and town.

Principally, this has involved reviewing how certain areas of the port are used as well as relocating some companies. For example, businesses in quayside locations that do not make use of them
