We’re delighted that Marsden Cove Marina – a Northport Group business – is a finalist in not one but two categories of this year’s New Zealand Marina Operators Association Awards: ‘Marina of the Year’ and ‘Boatyard of the Year’.

It’s a warm welcome today to Rhys Jones, our new chief executive officer. He joins us from Darwin Port, where he was general manager of engineering.

Our neighbour, Channel Infrastructure, is doing some work to keep the harbour open to the large ships that discharge fuel at its jetty.

Back in May last year we told the story of how Northport was handling the arrival of 80 battery storage units for the 100-megawatt battery energy storage system (BESS) at Meridian Energy’s Ruakākā Energy Park.

Components to be used in the construction of Mercury’s Kaiwaikawe wind farm near Dargaville have started arriving at Northport.
