Noatum brings crane package to Safaga terminal

Safaga terminal moves toward live ops: Noatum Ports’ new terminal at Safaga Port received three ship-to-shore cranes and six rubber-tired gantry cranes — marking the start of phased operations after the completion of major infrastructure works ahead of the terminal’s planned 2H 2026 opening.

The terminal specs: The terminal will span around 810k sqm and include a 1-km quay, with capacity for up to 450k TEUs, 5 mn tons of dry bulk and general cargo, 1 mn tons of liquid bulk, and 50k CEUs of Ro-Ro cargo. AD Ports secured a USD 200 mn 30-year concession for the Safaga project in 2023.
