Hamburg Port Consulting works with Puerto Mejillones on optimising operations

Hamburg Port Consulting (HPC) has delivered an assessment study on Puerto Mejillones in Chile, aiming to optimise the terminal operations and strengthen the port’s resilience.

The project covers the operational process flow, infrastructure, equipment and maintenance as well as IT landscape of the port, which is located on the Bay of Mejillones, 65 km north of the city of Antofagasta.

The port is a key terminal for solid and liquid bulk cargoes such as copper concentrate, clinker, lead, tin, sulphur and sulphuric acid, providing specialised logistics services for the logistics chain of the Antofagasta region, particularly supporting its mining industry.
