Port of Rotterdam is developing a 160-metre LNG berth opposite Gate terminal's Jetty 3 in Yukonhaven. TenderNed records a 6 February 2026 contract with the combination of Hakkers Waterbouw and Aannemingsbedrijf De Klerk after Gate took FID in January. The marine package covers the jetty, a roughly 200-metre combi-wall, mooring dolphins and walkways, a roughly 145-metre fender and mooring structure, dredging and shore works. Rijkswaterstaat notifications naming De Klerk and a harbour-light restriction from 6 April support early construction, while accepted quantities, contractor workshares, plant, lower tiers and contract price remain unpublished.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Port of Rotterdam Authority - marine-infrastructure buyer and developer; Gate Terminal B.V. - terminal operator, FID party and topside and shore-power interface
Delivery parties
combinatie Hakkers Waterbouw en Aannemingsbedrijf De Klerk - TenderNed award supplier, Hakkers Waterbouw - named combination member; project-specific workshare and deployed plant not published, B.V. Aannemingsbedrijf De Klerk - named combination member and applicant in two project-specific Rijkswaterstaat notifications, Gate Terminal B.V. - operator-side jetty systems, small-scale LNG service and shore-power interface; not the marine-works prime, Dredging plant, steel and pile suppliers, survey, environmental, electrical, mechanical and other lower tiers - not disclosed in the cited records
Contract route
Port of Rotterdam used a European negotiated procedure with prior competition under internal reference i.001385 and a UAV-GC design-and-construct form. The December 2024 notice allowed up to four parties into the award stage and said only engineering would be instructed initially; execution would follow after conditions including permits and FID by Gate and the Port. Gate announced FID on 13 January 2026. TenderNed's award announcement published 11 February records the Hakkers-De Klerk combination as supplier and a contract signature on 6 February. The electronic value field is EUR 0 and is treated as undisclosed, not as the commercial value.
Execution window
The original notice stated a two-year duration. Gate now plans start-up around the end of 2028, while Port of Rotterdam says the 160-metre berth is expected in the second half of 2028. Rijkswaterstaat notices published 20 and 23 March name De Klerk in project-specific soil or dredged-material application and construction-discharge activities. Harbour Master notice 050/2026 removed the Yukonhaven red harbour light from 6 April to 31 August because of construction in and around the basin. These sources support mobilisation and early works, not completion of the full marine scope.
Works package
The award-stage description covers a roughly 160-metre jetty for seagoing and inland vessels at about NAP -10 m nautical depth, with future deepening capability to about NAP -13 m; a roughly 200-metre north-side combi-wall connecting to Jetty 3; mooring dolphins and walkways; a roughly 145-metre fender and mooring structure; and dredging, coastal and shore works to enlarge Yukonhaven. The procurement also contemplated an unspecified part of future Jetty 5 while excluding Jetty 6. Gate separately places shore power within the operator-side project interface.
Marine interfaces
Delivery takes place in an operating LNG and petroleum-harbour regime beside Gate's existing loading facilities. The berth must connect marine civil structures, future deepening, dredging and shore works with Gate's process, transfer, safety and shore-power systems. Existing Jetty 3 service continues to define the operating context, but no cited record publishes construction windows around LNG calls, temporary navigation geometry, accepted dredge prism, piling sequence or systems-integration responsibility matrix.
Commercial evidence boundary
No public contract value is disclosed. TenderNed's EUR 0 value is a missing or non-published amount, not a price. The 2024 tender described approximately 450,000 m3 of dredging and associated shore work; the 2026 award release describes approximately 350,000 m3. That 100,000 m3 difference may reflect design development, boundary movement or measurement changes, but no approved quantity schedule or variation record is public. Gate's shore-power programme is a separate operator-side package and should not be folded into the marine works price.

Open this project in the Change Log

Harbour marking changed for Yukonhaven construction

The Harbour Master removed the red harbour light through 31 August because of construction in and around the basin, supporting an early field-activity classification.

Source

A second Rijkswaterstaat notice tied De Klerk to Jetty 4 construction

The notice concerns discharges associated with realisation of Jetty 4 and strengthens the project-specific mobilisation evidence without allocating the full contract scope.

Source

Port of Rotterdam signed the Hakkers-De Klerk combination

The award resolves the legal marine D&C supplier and updates the public dredging description to about 350,000 m3 while leaving price and member workshares undisclosed.

Source

Gate took final investment decision

FID resolves one express tender-stage condition for execution and establishes the operator's start-up target around the end of 2028.

Source

The marine D&C tender established a conditional execution route

Port of Rotterdam said engineering would be instructed first and physical execution would depend on permits and FID; the tender described about 450,000 m3 of dredging.
