Gabon Ports to Manage Port D'Owendo and Port Gentil
Posted on: Wednesday, 7 November 2007, 03:01 CST
Gabon Ports Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of port operator Portek International, has taken over the operations and management control of Port d'Owendo and Port Gentil in Gabon.
Together with Bejaia Mediterranean Terminal in Algeria and the Port of Valletta in Malta, Port d'Owendo and Port Gentil are the latest ports to be added to Portek's growing terminal operations and management portfolio in the African and Mediterranean region. Including two terminals in Jakarta and the Banten Port in West Java, Portek now has seven terminal operations.
Larry Lam, chairman of Portek, said: "The immediate challenge for Gabon Ports Management is to ensure that the ports' services undergo a smooth transition. At the same time, one of our priorities will be to systematically introduce new equipment and systems in order to fulfill multiple requirements over the next five years. The second priority will be to work closely with the authorities and our customers in order to provide efficient services and productivity improvements in the ports' operational processes."
