Geodyn Solutions Partnership for Can Gio International Transshipment Port & Green Energy Hub

1. Executive Summary
Geodyn Solutions and its partners propose the development of the Can Gio International Transshipment Port as a world-class smart and sustainable maritime hub.
This project positions Vietnam as a direct competitor to Singapore, by combining:
  • Mega-container handling capacity of 10–15 million TEU annually.
  • Energy hub with 6 million barrels of oil storage & green bunkering.
  • Next-generation AI, blockchain, and automation.
  • Green infrastructure and renewable power systems to create the most environmentally advanced port in Southeast Asia.
2. Area Requirements
  • Total Project Area: ~800 hectares (8 km²)
    • Container Port & Logistics Zone: ~570 hectares
    • Oil Storage & Energy Hub: ~150 hectares
    • Green Infrastructure (solar farms, hydrogen plant, wastewater treatment, mangrove buffer): ~80 hectares
  • Water Area & Access Channels:
    • 7.2 km of quay walls & berths.
    • Dredged navigation channel: ~12 km long, -16m depth to accommodate 24,000 TEU ships.
    • Turning basin: 1.5 km diameter.
This footprint balances operational capacity with ecological preservation, allocating dedicated areas for mangrove restoration and green buffers.
3. Green Technology & Innovation
AI & Smart Automation
  • Predictive vessel scheduling to reduce wait times and emissions.
  • Hydrogen/electric AGVs for zero-emission cargo handling.
  • Smart cranes with energy recovery systems.
Blockchain for Transparency & Green Finance
  • Blockchain-based carbon credit trading.
  • Smart contracts for container trade and oil storage leasing.
  • Immutable cargo tracking to ensure ESG compliance.
Sustainable Infrastructure
  • Shore-to-ship renewable power (cold ironing).
  • Hydrogen and LNG bunkering for clean shipping fuels.
  • On-site solar fields + offshore wind integration for energy independence.
  • Zero-wastewater discharge through recycling systems.
  • Circular economy converting dredged sediment into construction materials.
  • Mangrove conservation zone integrated into port landscape.
