Peterhead Port is the ultimate North Sea gateway, strategically positioned to drive the future of Scotland’s maritime and energy sectors.

Our diverse infrastructure, state-of-the-art facilities and operational flexibility make us the port of choice for complex, high-volume requirements. From logistics and renewables to decommissioning, our 3km of quaysides at depths of up to 14m and extensive storage areas are optimised to deliver 24-7-365 operational surety.

Embedded in our community for over 400 years, as a Trust port we focus on the long-term, prioritising reinvestment and sustainable growth.

As well as being the country’s biggest whitefish and pelagic port, we are uniquely positioned to support low carbon initiatives such as Acorn’s carbon capture and storage project, offshore wind and hydrogen innovation.

Our Sectors

Our clients operate in a remarkably broad range of sectors, from energy (oil and gas, renewables) through fisheries to commercial (agricultural and timber products) and leisure (cruise-ships, small-boat marina).

Port Areas

The port is comprised of 11 distinct areas – North Harbour, Port Henry Basin, Albert Quay, Merchant's Quay, North Base, Princess Royal Jetty, South Base, Tanker Jetty and Peterhead Bay Marina.
