All-purpose port and Energy Hub

Brunsbüttel Ports GmbH owns and operates the three Brunsbüttel ports of Elbehafen, Ölhafen and Hafen Ostermoor.

Situated at the intersection of the Elbe and the Kiel Canal, the three central throughput hubs are in the ChemCoast Park Brunsbüttel, the largest industrial area in Schleswig-Holstein and the Hamburg Metropolitan Region.

Elbehafen is a high-performance all-purpose port specialising in the throughput and storage of bulk goods, liquid goods, general cargo and heavy cargo. With its trimodal terminal connection for lorries, rail, sea and inland waterway vessels, Elbehafen guarantees efficient and smooth logistics processes and fast connections to international markets.

Ölhafen and Hafen Ostermoor are vital facilities in the regional chemical and mineral oil industries. They handle the throughput of raw materials and products via the Kiel Canal.

Positioning as the national energy hub of the future

Elbehafen plays a pivotal role in the national energy supply and is increasingly evolving into a leading energy hub in Germany. With the floating LNG terminal at Elbehafen – which is operated by Deutsche Energy Terminal GmbH – the site is already making a significant contribution to national supply security. Elbehafen will continue to expand its strategic importance over the years ahead. Aside from organising LNG imports to secure the supply of natural gas, the facility will increasingly focus on sustainable energy solutions in the coming years. One example is the plan to develop the port into an important throughput hub for green energy sources such as hydrogen and its derivatives. Elbehafen will also carve a niche as a central CO₂ export hub.
