The project encompasses dredging , land reclamation and the construction of a 360-metre berth along PTP’s linear wharf, equipped with four quay cranes and a yard fully prepared for electric rubber-tyred gantry (e-RTG) cranes.
Commenting the latest news, PTP Chairman, Tan Sri Che Khalib Mohamad Noh , said: “PTP’s key expansion plan is centred on optimising our existing footprint, with the aim of increasing the terminal’s total handling capacity to approximately 16 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) over the next two and a half years.”
PTP has recently been rated by Alphaliner as the world’s fastest-growing port at +15.4% in the first half of 2025, marking the highest growth rate among the Top 30 global ports under the research house’s ranking.
Also, PTP is a key Asian hub under the Gemini Cooperation.
