Marshalling Port

Port of Argentia is North America’s first monopile marshalling port in support of US offshore wind projects. Argentia’s strategic location and proximity to US offshore wind developments are key factors in securing contracts to receive monopiles for laydown and storage. Utilizing its existing infrastructure and vast land assets, the Port has dedicated over 70 hectares of paved runways to monopile marshalling. 

The first shipment of monopiles arrived during the summer of 2023 and the Port continues to receive additional offshore wind turbine foundations on a regular schedule.

The Port of Argentia also welcomes other components to support offshore wind development, including wind turbine blades. Wind turbine blades are offloaded by the skilled stevedoring companies at the Port and moved to a secure marshalling area in Port of Argentia’s expansive uplands.
