A tight fit, but it made it. Karmsund calls at the Port of Kołobrzeg

The Port of Kołobrzeg recently handled the Karmsund, an 89.8-meter-long general cargo vessel whose arrival drew interest from the maritime sector. With the port’s current capacity allowing ships up to 100 meters in length and 15 meters in beam, Karmsund, measuring 14.5 meters in width, ranks among the largest vessels to enter Kołobrzeg.

The ship arrived from Norway, delivering 1,652 metric tons of microdol – a dolomite-based powder primarily used as a filler in foundry castings and polymer concrete. Following unloading at the Kołobrzeg cargo terminal, the material was transferred to a storage facility before being dispatched via road transport to local recipients.

The arrival of Karmsund highlights the increasing transshipment activity at the Port of Kołobrzeg, reinforcing its role in bulk cargo logistics. The ability to accommodate larger vessels further strengthens the port’s position as a strategic hub on Poland’s coastline.
