Stornoway Deep Water Terminal

2026
Stornoway Port

In 2026, Stornoway Port selected our Utilities Works and Services framework to construct a new linkspan at the Deep-Water Terminal.

This is McLaughlin & Harvey's first Project Delivery Agreement through the SCAPE Scotland Utilities framework, designed to enhance efficiency and collaboration in the utility sector.

The Deep-Water Terminal can accommodate vessels over 1,000 feet (330m), providing berthing for cruise ships and deep-water access for large cargo vessels related to renewable energy and other industries.

In addition to the linkspan works, McLaughlin & Harvey has been appointed as contractor for the marine site investigation works for the Deep Water South project through the SCAPE Utilities framework. This development represents the second phase of the port’s deep-water expansion, intended to bolster renewable energy infrastructure and ensure Stornoway remains one of Scotland’s most vital ports for the transition to green energy.

“We’re delighted that Stornoway Port is using our Utilities framework to continue its strong collaborative relationship with McLaughlin & Harvey. This demonstrates SCAPE and our delivery partners’ shared commitment to delivering effective solutions for projects across Scotland.”
