North Sea Port has become a minority shareholder in Pipelink, currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Port of Antwerp-Bruges. Pipelink owns and manages an asset base of 750 kilometres of pipelines in Belgium, according to Tank Storage Magazine.
This new partnership will develop and build local, national and international pipeline projects – essential steps forward in the modal shift and energy transition.

Furthermore, Pipelink’s ambition is to develop pipeline networks for the transport of (green) hydrogen carriers such as ammonia, methane and methanol.
