The Ghana’s Minister of Finance, Mr Ken Ofori-Atta, has announced plans by the government to develop the Takoradi Port as an oil and gas hub in the West Africa sub-region.
Towards that end, he said the government has commenced the development and operation of an on-dock container multi-purpose terminal with a container quay of 16-metre draft to accommodate bigger vessels.
“The first phase of the dry bulk jetty, which involves the construction of the 600-metre quay wall, was completed. The second phase of an additional 200-metre quay wall will commence in 2019,” Mr Ofori-Atta disclosed this during the presentation of the 2019 Budget and Economic Statement to Parliament in Accra on November 15.
