Port projects in West Africa

There are many projects on the way in Africa’s maritime sector as governments pursue ambitious port expansion projects. The port sector of many countries in the continent has attracted 15 billion US$ in private investment and a total of 85 billion US$ including public funding. Most of this growth is funded by increasing levels of debt so the profitability of these projects will be the key to their feasibility.

In Africa Tangier Med and Port Said have taken the lead in North Africa, Djibouti in East Africa and Durban in Southern Africa. In West Africa, some countries are in competition to become the leaders in the sub-region with ambitious ports development projects.
