Experience the Gateway to Europe’s Chemical Industry

Join fellow attendees of the World Methanol Conference 2026 for an exclusive boat tour of the Port of Rotterdam—Europe’s largest port and a global hub for energy, chemicals, and logistics. Hosted by the Port of Rotterdam, this private experience offers a unique opportunity to explore one of the world’s most important maritime and industrial gateways from the water.

Stretching more than 40 kilometres, the Port of Rotterdam connects Europe to global markets and is at the forefront of innovation, sustainability, and the energy transition. During the cruise, you’ll pass active shipping lanes, industrial terminals, and major chemical facilities, including the methanol terminals operated by Liquin and Chane*, while gaining insight into the infrastructure and logistics that support the global methanol supply chain.

Available as a special add-on for conference attendees, the tour is an excellent opportunity to network with industry peers over light refreshments while experiencing one of the world’s most dynamic ports. Spaces are limited, so reserve your place when registering.
