The facility, headed by Director General Mr. Saydi Ababacar Diop, serves as one of Senegal\u2019s principal ship repair hubs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Officials disclosed that the shipyard has the capacity to repair more than 200 vessels annually, servicing a wide range of ships from fishing trawlers to large commercial vessels and offshore units. The facility is equipped with modern infrastructure including a 195-meter-long dry dock measuring 27 meters wide, a floating dock with a lifting capacity of 60,000 tons, and a syncrolift boat lift capable of handling vessels of up to 1,200 tons.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The delegation also visited the Dakar International Ferry Station, a major regional passenger and cargo terminal operated under the Port of Dakar. The facility plays a critical role in connecting Senegal to neighboring countries and facilitating maritime transport within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Officials at the terminal highlighted the use of advanced technology and digitized systems to manage cargo flows, passenger movement, and port logistics. A key vessel operating from the terminal is the Ferry Aline Sitoe Diatta, captained by Captain Hadija Djiop, which supports regional connectivity by transporting passengers and goods across coastal destinations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As part of the tour, the Liberian team also visited the construction site of the Port of Ndayane, a landmark maritime infrastructure project currently being developed by global logistics company DP World. With an estimated investment of $1.2 billion, the deep-water port is designed to transform Senegal into a major maritime trade hub in West Africa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Upon completion, the project will feature up to seven port yard facilities, as well as a special economic zone and industrial infrastructure aimed at boosting Senegal\u2019s economic growth, enhancing regional trade, and reducing logistical congestion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Liberian delegation described the tour as a valuable opportunity to gain insight into modern port infrastructure and operational systems that could inform future maritime development initiatives in Liberia.<\/p>\n<p>Source : LiMA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A high-level
