This will enhance the port’s competitiveness as a leading maritime hub in West Africa
Description
The project will treble Tema Port’s current traffic of about one million Twenty-foot Equivalent Units (TEUS). A dredged 19-metre-deep port access channel, a new 1.4-kilometre-long quay for four container berths, with a 16 metre draft, and a 4-kilometre-long breakwater will enable the expanded Tema Port to accommodate some of the world’s largest container ships, and improve cargo-handling services and capacity.
