Nibulon Joint Venture LLC has joined the “Agency for Humanitarian Demining of Ukraine’s Waterways” consortium with the aim of helping to build Ukraine’s institutional capacity in this area, the company’s press service reported.
“The joint work will encompass humanitarian demining of Ukrainian waters, the development of technological solutions, scientific research and innovation, the implementation of standards, personnel training, and the execution of international projects,” the statement reads.
Nibulon noted that its participation in the consortium is a continuation of the company’s work in the field of humanitarian demining. With the support of the German organization DEG Impulse gGmbH, the company formed a specialized unit and strengthened its technical capabilities, specifically with GCS-200 mechanized demining machines. In July 2026, Nibulon received the relevant certification, confirming its professional readiness to carry out such work.
The company added that its participation in the Agency for Humanitarian Demining of Ukrainian Waters represents another consolidation of practical experience, infrastructure, and scientific and engineering expertise aimed at building Ukraine’s systemic capacity in underwater demining.
The initiative to create this consortium was launched by the NGO “International Business People’s Club.” The consortium also includes representatives from the Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding and the “West-East” group of companies, which specializes in engineering and technological solutions.
Before the war, “Nibulon” Joint Venture LLC cultivated 82,000 hectares of land across 12 regions of Ukraine and exported agricultural products to more than 70 countries worldwide. In 2021, the grain trader exported 5.64 million metric tons of agricultural products—the highest volume in its history. After the war began, the company was forced to relocate its headquarters from Mykolaiv to Kyiv. Currently, “Nibulon” cultivates 52,000 hectares of land across four clusters. In addition to 23 grain elevator complexes, Nibulon has its own trucking and rail transport capabilities, as well as a fleet built at its own shipyard. During wartime, this fleet continues to provide river transportation services.
The company is also actively developing its own humanitarian demining unit to restore safety on leased lands and assist Ukraine’s agricultural sector. It is a certified mine action operator.
