\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Meridian Port Services Ltd (MPS) has achieved another major milestone in its mission to redefine port efficiency and capacity in West Africa with the arrival of sixteen cutting-edge electric Rubber Tyred Gantry cranes (16 eRTGs).<\/p>\n

In the early hours of a misty tropical morning, the heavy-lift vessel RAM COMMANDER, a tactical project cargo carrier, docked at MPS Terminal 3, delivering a spectacular cargo that marks the next phase of operational expansion. The arrival created a striking scene along the Tema coastline, drawing the attention of local communities and the port business ecosystem alike.<\/p>\n

This development forms part of a broader capacity upgrade programme aimed at meeting growing trade demand and reinforcing MPS\u2019s position as a leading logistics hub in the region.<\/p>\n

The momentum continues with the imminent arrival of the ultra-heavy carrier ZHENHUA 32, a strategic infrastructure vessel transporting three additional Ship-to-Shore (STS) gantry cranes. Once deployed, these assets will increase the terminal\u2019s annual handling capacity to 3 million TEUs.<\/p>\n

The newly delivered eRTGs will be deployed in the container yard as part of Phase 2 of the Tema Port Expansion Project, recently commissioned by H.E. President John Dramani Mahama. This phase underscores MPS\u2019s commitment to delivering world-class infrastructure that meets global port standards.<\/p>\n

This investment supports MPS\u2019s strategic objectives to enhance operational efficiency, facilitate trade and industrial growth, reduce the cost of doing business, and strengthen Tema Port\u2019s role as a regional hub for transit and transshipment.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mohamed Samara, CEO of MPS, said:\u00a0\u201cThis milestone reflects our relentless focus on continuous improvement and operational excellence. The addition of these advanced eRTGs, alongside the incoming STS cranes, significantly enhances our capacity to serve our customers with greater efficiency and reliability.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The CEO of MPS further affirmed that \u201cWe, at MPS, are proud of the strong commitment and long-term vision of our shareholders, whose partnership continues to drive the transformation of Tema Port into a premier maritime gateway in Africa. At MPS, we remain dedicated to enabling trade, supporting economic growth, and delivering value across Ghana and the wider West African region.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

MPS is proudly operated as a joint venture between the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA), Africa Global Logistics (AGL), and APM Terminals<\/strong>, combining local expertise, regional experience, and global best practices to deliver sustainable, efficient, and world-class port operations. This latest expansion further underscores the shareholders\u2019 shared commitment to driving growth, facilitating trade, and strengthening the Port of Tema\u2019s position as West Africa\u2019s leading container terminal.<\/p>\n
