The Port of Marseilles has confirmed plans to undertake a significant USD 1.5 billion investment programme in the Fos industrial-port zone between 2025 and 2029. As part of this development, Terminal Seayard will receive a major expansion to increase capacity and improve berth availability, according to DynaLiners.
The project will extend the quay on the northern side of Terminal Seayard by 120 metres, while expanding the terminal area by 3.3 hectares. Once completed, the additional berth length will enable the terminal to simultaneously handle two vessels of up to 400 metres in length, enhancing operational flexibility for large containerships.
Terminal Seayard forms part of the Fos2XL North development and is jointly owned by Terminal Investment Limited (MSC – 50%), APM Terminals (42%) and Cosco Shipping Ports (8%).
The upgrade positions Marseilles–Fos for continued growth in container traffic, supporting a more competitive and efficient Mediterranean gateway for international trade.
