  • Reconvert the LNG-M1 loading station into an LPG loading station;
  • Build a new P4 oil berth for loading and unloading large vessels with a capacity of 250,000 tons with reinforcement and extension of the main pier.

Ensure the road link between the New Port and the East-West highway

  • The reconstruction of a bridge over the mouth of Oued Saf – Saf;
  • Rehabilitation of the decommissioned Wilaya 18 (CW18) road.
