The world’s ports and shipping lines are the backbone of our logistics networks and global trade, and yet our ports face challenges from ageing infrastructure, climate change, competition, and urban development.
Ports and marine projects can be complex – balancing maintenance of operational capacity with delivery of cost-effective solutions.
