Gearing up towards operations at the Namport New Container Terminal
Over the just ended weekend, staff members from the operations department at Namport were seen hard at work as they were tasked with the mammoth job of relocating all containers from the current container yard to the newly build container terminal on reclaimed land popularly known as the Namport New Container Terminal.
A total of 1200 export containers have so far been successfully moved to the new terminal amidst the unfavourable weather conditions that were experienced during the operations leaving less than 5% of equipment on the current container yard that needs to be moved.
The entity is excited at the immense growth that it is undergoing and are equally eager to officially commence with port operation at the new Container Terminal.
The New Container Terminal was constructed on a 40 hectares piece of land reclaimed from the Atlantic Ocean in Walvis Bay valued at N$4.2 billion.
