Study on Vasco da Gama Terminal in Sines should be completed in April.

The market study relating to the future Vasco da Gama Terminal, at the Port of Sines, is expected to be completed during the month of April, in an advance considered important for the preparation of a new international tender for this infrastructure.

The objective of this work is to more rigorously assess market interest, understand the expectations of port operators and shipowners and define a model that is more adjusted to the current reality of the sector. The intention is to create conditions for the project to move forward with more solid foundations, after the previous attempt did not generate proposals. The conclusion of this study should pave the way for the preparation of new technical and contractual documentation, essential for relaunching the process. The calendar indicated for this next step places the possible launch of a new tender between the end of 2026 and the beginning of 2027. The Vasco da Gama Terminal continues to be seen as a strategic bet for the growth of the Port of Sines, especially in container handling.

Carrying out this project could reinforce the installed port capacity, increase the competitiveness of the Alentejo port and consolidate its position in large international logistics chains. At the same time, the current framework of port concessions could make investment more attractive, by allowing longer time horizons for large-scale projects with strong financial demand.
