PSA lightening up its project Tuas Port


The prime minister of Singapore, Lee Hsien Loong, recently placed a torch on the grounds of Tuas Port to symbolise the beginning of a new and exciting chapter in the nation’s rich maritime history. With 26 km of deep-water berths (up to 23 m chart datum), and capable of handling 65 million teu annually, Tuas Port’s first berths are scheduled to commence operations in 2021. When completed in 2040, Tuas Port is anticipated to be the world’s single largest fully automated terminal in the world.

 

Accompanied by a contingent of PSA staff, unions and the management, the torch made its way through the Keppel and Brani Terminals before being transported by prime mover to Pasir Panjang Terminals. From there, the torch was conveyed by a flotilla of PSA Marine tugs and harbour craft to Tuas Port.

 

The relay route signifies the development and transformation of PSA over the years, and the passing of the torch by different PSA teams symbolises unity and continuity as the organisation evolves from generation to generation. PSA’s three city terminals at Tanjong Pagar, Keppel and Brani will move to Tuas Port by 2027. By 2040, Pasir Panjang Terminals will be consolidated at Tuas Port. (fd)
