Ghana’s President has officially inaugurated Phases I and II of the Tema Port Expansion Project at Meridian Port Services’ Terminal 3, marking the full completion of one of the country’s most significant maritime infrastructure developments.
With construction, equipment installation and all operational systems now delivered, the expanded terminal features four berths, a 1,400-metre quay, and 127 hectares of terminal area. The upgrade increases Tema’s capacity to 3.7 million TEU, positioning it as one of West Africa’s most advanced container gateways, reported by Dynaliners.
Meridian Port Services — a joint venture between APM Terminals (Maersk), Africa Global Logistics (MSC) and the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority — operates the facility. The expansion is expected to boost cargo efficiency, strengthen Ghana’s role in regional trade and support long-term economic development.
