Meridian Port Services Ltd (MPS) proudly announces the successful arrival of the 15 cutting-edge gantry cranes, a pivotal development in Phase 2 of the Tema Port Expansion Project.
This transformative project encompasses 3 Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes and 12 Electric Rubber-Tyred Gantry (eRTG) cranes, meticulously designed to amplify productivity and solidify Tema Port's status as the premier commercial container hub in West Africa.
In a significant milestone, MPS awarded the construction, delivery, and commissioning contract for these advanced gantry cranes to Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industry Co. Ltd (ZPMC) in January 2022. After rigorous construction and inspections, these cranes embarked on their voyage from Shanghai, China, over a month ago, culminating in their eagerly awaited arrival at MPS Terminal 3 by the close of August 2023.
The arrival of these state-of-the-art gantry cranes signals a momentous enhancement in Tema Port's cargo-handling capacity and productivity, aligning it with the growing demands of global trade. The port's arsenal, now totalling 12 Quay Cranes and 41 Yard Cranes, cements Tema Port's standing as one of Sub-Saharan Africa's most efficient ports. This accomplishment continues to gain international recognition, with leading global shipping lines increasingly favouring Tema Port as their preferred hub.
