Latest News on NSBT Berth Expansion Programme

Expansion Continues to Take Shape.

Nectar Group is pleased to share that construction work is taking shape at the expansion programme at Nectar Sierra Leone Bulk Terminal (NSBT) in partnership with Eiffage Génie Civil and Beckett Rankine. The new 3rd berth at QEII terminal is a critical piece of infrastructure which will facilitate a larger-class of vessel size to call at the Freetown terminal, accommodating vessels of 225 meters and 13 meters draft.

The project is currently well underway and as of February of this year, the installation of tie rods has been completed. Demobilization of the marine spread commenced at the beginning of February, including contract confirmation for the dredger and reclaimer vessel. Ongoing works for the east revetment, floodwall, existing drainage, and mooring blocks continues.

NSBT es una filial de Nectar Group Limited, un operador privado especializado en la manipulación de graneles y terminales. La historia de Nectar Group en Sierra Leona se remonta a la década de 1980 y opera la terminal de graneles y carga fraccionada del puerto de Freetown desde 2015, tras una exitosa licitación internacional. En los últimos seis años se han realizado importantes inversiones, mejorando las instalaciones y la productividad de la terminal para apoyar el deseo de las autoridades portuarias de Sierra Leona de seguir haciendo progresar el puerto. 

The advanced construction programme is due for completion later this year.
