Marsa Maroc to operate Nador West Med container terminal

Marsa Maroc will operate the container terminal at the deep-water port, Nador West Med for 25 years, Moroccan media reported.

Marsa Maroc will have to invest 200 million dirhams ($20 mln) in the terminal which will have a capacity of 3.5 million containers, L’Observateur du Maroc et de l’Afrique reported.

The terminal has a depth of 18 meters and 70 hectares of embankments and will be equipped with 15 latest-generation quay gantry cranes (STS) and 45 latest-generation park gantry cranes (RTG) at full capacity.

Marsa Maroc has gained expertise through operating terminal 3 in Tanger Med port, the largest in the Mediterranean.

Nador West Med is expected to be ready this year and will host a Moroccan LNG terminal.
