The port of Rotterdam is the largest seaport in Europe. It offers amongst many other specialist marine services the safe, secure, and competitive handling of nuclear cargo via its various terminal operators and regional transporters. This harbor tour will give participants an impression of the size and activity of the port and its many terminals and operators. We will also pass by a terminal where nuclear cargo is regularly being shipped, for example by RSB LOGISTIC using the motor vessel CLI PRIDE to North America. Delegates from RSB and a tour guide will be on board to offer guests insights and background during the tour.
To participate, attendees must register by 29 March 2023.

Operating within a framework of high environmental, social responsibility and corporate governance standards, the technology is also used to separate isotopes of other elements for industrial, research and medical purposes, providing further value for society.
