The Ministry of Economy of Georgia said that the Anaklia deep sea port project is advancing to the next stage – the hydrodynamic testing in the Danish capital of Copenhagen.
According to the officials, the ongoing multi-day hydrodynamic impact assessment for the marine infrastructure of the port includes laboratory testing of a breakwater model with advanced 3D virtual simulations that aid in evaluating the breakwater’s configuration and overall design.
“ The testing will take several days, and ultimately, we will have a confirmed model for the design ,” said Zurab Sitchinava , Director General of the Anaklia Sea Port state company.
“ Each detail requires careful consideration, which is why we involve various specialists ,” added Tim Devolder , Director of Jan De Nul NV’s Georgian branch – the Belgian consortium responsible for constructing the port’s marine infrastructure.
In addition to the testing, the participants agreed on the breakwater’s configuration and established plans for subsequent research phases during a series of thematic and technical working meetings, the Ministry said.
