Port of Waterford
Port of Waterford is the State commercial company charged with the management and development of Waterford Harbour. The main centre of operation is at Belview Port on the River Suir. Belview is 5km downstream from Waterford City and upstream from where the Rivers Barrow and Nore meet the River Suir at the head of Waterford Estuary.
The Port handles vessels with ships’ draughts of up to 9.0 metres and lengths of up to 200 metres. Belview has excellent inland connectivity with direct access to the M9 and active rail connections into the port.
Belview Port currently handles over 1.5 million tonnes of bulk products (mainly agri-related) together with another 100k+ tonnes of break bulk (mainly timber, steel and project cargoes).
The Port also operates in the Container/Lo-Lo sector with short-sea services to/from Rotterdam and deep-sea services connecting to Liverpool and Rotterdam.
Non-Port revenues are generated from car parking and office rental.
There is just under 1 kilometre of quays provided at Belview with excellent shore side services. Extensive warehousing is provided in the Port area for bulk and palletised product.
The Ports staff deal with all of the harbour’s navigational and pilotage obligations, operate the Lo-Lo terminal, handle the estate duties associated with the Port and administer the operation. Bulk operations are run by licensed stevedores.
The Port Company is just one part of the overall port community that together provides the operations, skills, experience, infrastructure and investment needed for a functioning efficient port. Port of Waterford acknowledges its port community partners for their vital role in the provision of bulk stevedoring, materials handling, haulage, bulk and palletised storage, logistics and many other services.
