Construction of the first phase of a new deep-water container port began last December and is expected to be completed by 2025, a domestic media outlet reported. With a length of 350 metres and depth of 14.50 metres, it will allow larger container vessels with a capacity of up to 60,000 deadweight tonnage (nearly 4,000 TEUs) to dock at the port.
The entire project is expected to be completed by mid-2027. The port’s annual container handling capacity will reach 1,250,000 TEUs when the new terminal is launched.
