BMT study for Pelindo II port
BMT Group subsidiary BMT Asia Pacific has completed its latest project with state owned port operator, Indonesian Port Corporation II.
BMT has delivered a pre-feasibility study for a possible Greenfield site in the region of Kijing in West Kalimantan, Indonesia.
The three month study’s purpose was to determine the viability of a multi-purpose deep water port on the west coast of Borneo, the world’s third largest island.
The existence of a new port in Kijing will connect West Kalimantan with the principal intra-Asian shipping network, and improve the region’s connectivity and logistical efficiencies. The proposed port of Kijing will complement the current river port at Pontianak and a local network of coastal and river terminals with a planned total capacity of up to 3m TEUs, 15m tonnes of bulk capacity, and over 20m tonnes of liquid capacity per annum.
