To improve the efficiency of our existing ports, the Federal Government, through Nigerian ports will be investing $1.1 billion to fully rehabilitate decaying port infrastructure at TinCan, Apapa, Rivers, Delta, Calabar, and Onne ports. Some of these ports were built a century ago and haven’t been rebuilt since then.

Due to the decaying quay walls, the Terminal Operators are unable to deploy modern cargo handling equipment such as ship-to-shore cranes 🏗️. This often results in high turnaround times for vessels.

The rehabilitation will include;

— Tin-Can Island Port Complex (TCIPC)
Reconstruction of 2, 563m Quay Wall & Pavement including other works.

— Lagos Port Complex (Apapa Quays)
Reconstruction of 2,020m Quay wall to replace the old gravity wall (Berths 4-14).

— Warri, Delta State
Rehabilitation of collapsed 8.6 km Escravos Breakwaters.

— FLT 2, Onne Port
Reconstruction of 200m Quay Wall.

— Warri Old Port (Terminal C) Reconstruction of 80m sheet pile wall structure.

— Warri Old Port (Terminal A) Reconstruction of 280m quay structure.

— Calabar Dockyard
Rehabilitation of the Calabar Dockyard.

— Mciver Jetty, Calabar Port Jetty reconstruction.

— Millero Jetty, Calabar Port
Jetty Reconstruction.

When this is completed, the existing ports will be operational at full capacity and with improved efficiency, thereby reducing the TAT of vessels and cargo dwell times.
