Ports and Harbours Project
Quay Walls Tema, Ghana
The deep water berths on the north and south sides of Tema Port's no. 2 quay had to be extended because of the increasing size of modern container vessels that call there. DMC did the conceptual and detailed design for this extension for BAM company BAM International, which had been awarded the design and construct contract in 2003.
