AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Infrastructure funds managed by Macquarie <MQG.AX> and Goldman Sachs <GS.N> have agreed to buy Dutch port terminals operator HES International from owners Riverstone and The Carlyle Group <CG.O>, they said on Tuesday.

Terms were not disclosed. Reuters reported in February that Macquarie and Goldman funds were poised to buy HES for around 2 billion euros ($2.45 billion).

HES is one of the largest diversified port terminals businesses in Europe with 18 dry and liquid bulk terminals.
