The Port of Blyth has hailed its highest turnover in its 140-year history thanks to major offshore wind deals won by its main port operating business.
The Northumberland port is home to a number of global offshore energy companies and hosts high-profile projects connected to North Sea oil, gas and renewables operations.
Port directors revealed turnover grew to £25.5m, 15% up on last year, at its Annual Public Meeting which was held as a hybrid event – in person and streamed online – for the first time in two years.
