Port of Argentia
November 21, 2023
Port of Argentia is a heavy industrial seaport providing support to key industry sectors such as offshore and renewable energy, marine transportation, aquaculture and mining. The Port’s marine terminal features over 430 metres of docking facilities with up to 11 metres draft at three berths. Over 40 businesses operate at Argentia providing key economic activity and local employment.
The Port has established North America’s first monopile marshalling port in support of US offshore wind development and we continue to receive other offshore wind transition pieces including turbine blades.
The Port has partnered with Pattern Energy to develop Argentia Renewables, a proposed multi-phased 1.3-Gigawatt renewable energy project to establish a wind-powered green fuels production facility that will see carbon zero green ammonia exported to European markets.
Argentia is the construction site of the Cenovus Energy concrete gravity structure for West White Rose Project.
The Cooper Cove Marine Terminal Expansion Project at Argentia, scheduled for completion by Q2 2027, will see capital infrastructure investment exceeding $100M, including a concrete caisson dock with a minimum 13 metre draft featuring the latest innovations in decarbonization and port electrification.
