About This Seaport
17.6 million tonnes moved through Tarragona (ES TAR) between January and July 2026, up 6.3 percent, led by petroleum products (+12.8%), iron ore (+49.9%) and dry bulk, which surged 53 percent to 651,032 tonnes in July alone; vehicle movements grew 61.3 percent to 18,737 units. Overall 29.2 million tonnes were handled in 2025, of which 18.82 million tonnes were bulk liquids feeding the Chemmed petrochemical cluster (~20 million tonnes annual output). Tank storage keeps growing: TEPSA adds eight tanks in an 18.3 million euro project due July 2028, Vopak Terquimsa is expanding too, and Euroports Ibérica strengthened iron ore and project cargo throughput at Moll de Catalunya with a new hybrid Konecranes Gottwald ESP.8B mobile harbour crane. Container traffic is about to change: on 30 June 2026 a COSCO Shipping Ports/PTP joint venture won a 50-year concession worth €144.6 million for a 680,000 TEU multipurpose terminal at the Andalucía Wharf (Moll Andalusia), starting late 2026, fully operational by end-2028 and contractually required to handle at least 360,000 TEU a year from 2031, of which at least 200,000 TEU in containers. The project integrates the adjacent La Boella rail terminal, strengthening intermodal hinterland connectivity. Tarragona is also Spain's leading agribulk port (~5.8 million tonnes of grain and feed in 2025); CEVA Logistics is expanding its port facilities here. Road, rail and pipelines serve Aragón and central Spain. Until the new terminal ramps up, container imports into Catalonia clear customs through Barcelona or Valencia.
