The Anaklia marine infrastructure package connects capital dredging and breakwater construction to a separately delivered terminal and landside-access programme. Government records trace the construction agreement, design investigation and first dredging stage. Core infrastructure remains state-owned under the July landlord decision.
Capital dredging and navigation-channel deepening is the primary work classification. Related sectors connect this record to adjacent marine delivery and market coverage.

Project anatomy
Contract scope and delivery roles
Client / authority
Anaklia Sea Port LLC / Government of Georgia
Delivery parties
Jan De Nul, through the Georgian branch acting for the consortium named in the 2024 agreement
Contract route
The ministry records a signed marine construction agreement on 30 August 2024 following an international tender. It does not provide a contract price in that account. The July 2026 landlord policy provides for private terminal partners but is not an award to a named terminal operator.
Execution window
The October 2024 programme targets the first ships by 2029. The August 2026 site statement describes an initial campaign expected to take approximately one month; later vessel arrival and basin work are forward plans in that statement.
Works package
Design and construction of marine infrastructure, including seabed deepening and a protective breakwater. Terminal development and road-and-rail access have distinct responsibilities under the landlord policy.
Marine interfaces
Initial breakwater-channel dredging prepares the marine construction sequence. The target navigation depth, foundation levels and terminal interfaces each require their own survey, acceptance or commissioning records.
Commercial evidence boundary
The government's programme capacity and corridor investment policy are not a disclosed price for this marine works contract. Private terminal agreements and equipment readiness remain separate from the signed dredging/breakwater package.

Evidence status
Confirmed
Source position

Evidence gap
What remains unverified
Outstanding evidence
Accepted surveys and foundation levels for the initial breakwater-channel section
Dated mobilisation of the next dredger and the main basin campaign
State access infrastructure interfaces and separate terminal agreements
Commissioning milestones distinct from the port's design capacity
