Namibia - New Port of Walvis Bay Container Terminal Project

This operation is for the strategic expansion of the Walvis Bay container terminal project. The Port of Walvis Bay is operated by the Namibian Port Authority (Namport) and serves as a gateway linking some of southern Africa’s major trading regions to international markets. This program to raise the container throughput capacity from 355,000 TEUs to 1,005,000 TEUs was initiated in response to increased trade-related traffic volumes. The project scope comprises the construction of a new container terminal on reclaimed land from the Walvis Bay channel supported by complementary initiatives on logistics and capacity building. The total project cost estimate is ZAR3,419 million (UA252.12 million). Its implementation is over a period of three (3) years.
