Lamor and Greenflow complete integrated port-protection solution at Mongla Port, Bangladesh
- Bangladesh's first MARPOL-compliant Port Reception Facility ready for operation
Lamor and its strategic partner Greenflow have completed Bangladesh's first MARPOL-compliant Port Reception Facility (PRF) at Mongla Port, marking the completion of a broader integrated port protection system delivered by Lamor and Greenflow. The achievement represents a significant milestone in Bangladesh's maritime environmental protection. A formal inauguration is planned by the Port Authority to follow soon.
Mongla Port strengthens environmental readiness with comprehensive port-protection solution
The MARPOL solution delivered by Lamor and Greenflow included a Port Reception Facility, a collection vessel and two modern oil-spill-response (OSR) vessels and associated equipment, and extensive training and capacity-building for the local teams - creating an integrated capability for waste management and pollution preparedness.
The comprehensive solution enables Mongla Port to receive, treat, and dispose of oily residues, sewage, and solid waste in accordance with the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL). It features advanced reception and treatment systems, biotreatment units, and an on-site incineration process for non-recyclable materials. Treated water meets European discharge standards, helping protect the surrounding Sundarbans World Heritage Site.
"This joint project has shown how environmental responsibility and port competitiveness can go hand in hand," said Johan Grön, CEO of Lamor Corporation. "Together with Greenflow and the Mongla Port Authority, we have delivered a complete integrated solution that spans waste reception, treatment, and oil-spill response. The experience and cooperation model developed in Mongla also enable us to support other ports preparing for similar facilities around the world."
Lamor and Greenflow worked closely to design, install, and commission the new capabilities and to train local operational teams. The partnership combines Lamor's global experience in waste management and oil-spill response with Greenflow's MARPOL technical solutions and international experience in the implementation of Port Reception Facilities.
"Our M-CONCEPT technology, developed for Port Reception Facilities are effectively complemented by Lamor's wider port-protection capabilities, and the collaboration has worked well in Mongla," said Carlos Cardoso, CEO of Greenflow. "This facility shows how combining capabilities supports ports as they strengthen their environmental infrastructure. Our proven technology, and capability to deliver a full scale plant build in a record time, and with the most advance technical tools, highlights the efficiency of our M-CONCEPT for MARPOL wastes."
Model for future MARPOL projects in emerging maritime markets
The Mongla Port project, valued at approximately EUR 25 million, was awarded in 2022. It positions Mongla Port as a regional leader in sustainable maritime operations and provides a practical framework for future MARPOL-compliant ports.
"MARPOL compliance is becoming an important driver of competitiveness for ports, particularly in developing maritime markets where environmental systems are advancing quickly," added Grön. "With Greenflow, we aim to support ports in building the environmental capabilities that modern shipping now expects."
Building on the Mongla experience, Lamor continues to expand its MARPOL-related work globally, in close cooperation with Greenflow. The company is currently conducting pre-engineering and consultancy work for similar projects in China and Kuwait.
