Boskalis provides terminal services in ports around the world. Across a growing worldwide network of ports, Smit Lamnalco provides safe, reliable and cost-effective terminal services. We also provide emergency response, salvage and wreck removal services to vessel owners, operators or insurance companies through our subsidiary SMIT Salvage. To ensure continued accessibility to your port, we provide cost-effective maintenance dredging services including sustainable disposal of dredged material. In addition, we inspect, repair and maintain quay walls, jetties and buoys.

Boskalis helps your port to retain its place in the premier league and meet the changing demands of the global maritime industry. We help maximize safe and efficient ship handling.

We reduce costs by providing reliable long-term operational services.

Optimizing port maintenance

Involve us in the design phase of your port development and we can optimize port maintenance by including future requirements.

Ensuring ships arrive and depart on time

We provide the vital link between ship and berth through the Smit Lamnalco joint venture.

Safe navigation and emergency response

Wrecks must be removed when they pose a threat to safe navigation or obstruct access. Ports must have a plan for preventing, containing or cleaning up oil spills. SMIT’s highly trained and experienced salvage teams are equipped to respond immediately to emergencies anywhere in the world 24/7, delivering cost-effective compliance with requirements such as OPA ’90.

Port development, Mombasa

The Port of Mombasa is currently the biggest port on the coast of East Africa north of Durban, and the only international port in Kenya. It is now in the throes of a huge expansion drive to both increase cargo handling capacity and accommodate Panamax and Post Panamax vessels. The port is a transit route for, mainly, Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan and Northern Tanzania. The current container terminal has an installed capacity of 250,000 TEU but handled more than 770,000 TEU in 2011. The port will raise its profile as a regional hub by building a second container terminal with a capacity of 1.2 million TEU. The port authority decided to construct the container terminal in phases.
