Port of Oulu invests in efficiency

Over the past year, we have implemented significant improvements to our cargo handling capacity. The latest project – the widening of the shore ramp – was commissioned today 1st Dec 2025.

This upgrade enables cargo handling through three ramps on Enabler vessels instead of the previous two. Along with the 9-meter ramp extension, we also reinforced and expanded the quay area’s erosion protection, improving the long-term durability of the structures.

Western Quay Timber Storage Yard

During this past autumn, the port’s timber storage yard was expanded by 8,000 square meters to meet the growing demand for timber storage.

The expansion eases storage pressure and improves logistics efficiency. In the future, the yard is also planned to be paved, further increasing its usability.

Both projects were carried out by Kreate Oy – thank you for the excellent cooperation!
