ANNOUNCEMENT OF MOVEMENT OF SHIPS IN PORT OF GÖTEBORG

The City of Göteborg is searching for owners of leisure vessels in port of Göteborg.

According to decision on February 19, 2024 by the port authority in Göteborg based on the law regarding moving ships in public ports, the ships that are illegally moored at Gasverkskajen and Ringön must be removed as soon as possible. The ships are in very poor condition and risk sinking. Furthermore, protective measures has been taken to prevent discharges. The ships have been moved to Björlanda kile marina.

According to the above law, the ship's owner is obliged to reimburse costs that arise.

Within the port area of Göteborg, vessels may only be moored or anchored at locations designated by the Port Authority. Exceptions apply to places for leisure boats. Ships must not obstruct the port's proper use or be permanently moored in a manner that is in breach of current regulations.

The port owner has the right to keep the ship as security against costs in connection with the move/storage. If the costs are not paid or security is not provided, the vessel may be sold when three months have elapsed from the date of removal. If the vessel clearly has no commercial value, it may be disposed of instead of being moved or sold.

For information concerning this matter, please contact Port of Göteborg or the City of Göteborg.
