Tangier Med port container terminal-3 in Morocco operational

Tuesday, 12 Jan 2021

Share this on :

The third container terminal of Morocco’s Tangier Med port, located on the Strait of Gibraltar about 40 km east of Tangier, is now operational after one- and-a-half years of construction.

The container terminal was officially opened at the beginning of January 2021.

Marsa Maroc is one of the owners of the Marsa International Tangier Terminals SA (MINTT) consortium that was in charge of the construction, and management of the container with 50 percent stake.

The co-owners are Contship Italia Group, an Italian container terminal, intermodal and logistics operator, and Eurogate international, with a combined stake of 40 percent, as well as Hapag Llyod, a German international shipping and container transportation company with 10 percent stake.

At an investment of USD 215 million, the Tangier Med port container terminal-3 is built on a 36 ha site. Its docks are 800 mtr long and 18 mtr deep. The docks are equipped with eight cranes for loading and unloading containers from ships, as well as 22 other cranes for moving and storing the containers.

The terminal has the capacity to handle 1.5 million containers every single year, based on the twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) which is the universal measurement of containers.

It is expected to increase the capacity of the Tangier Med port which is one of the largest maritime hubs in the Mediterranean and Africa.
