The Port Autonome de Lomé (PAL) has acquired its fourth state-of-the-art tugboat as part of a strategic partnership with the Spanish company Boluda. This new acquisition marks a decisive turning point for the continuous development of the port platform, which already stands out for its performance.
PAL is now equipped with a new generation tugboat. This new addition to the fleet, expected to become operational in September, opens up new prospects for PAL, further strengthening its status as a major maritime hub in the region.
The new tugboat, equipped with the latest maritime technologies, will provide greater maneuverability and traction to assist vessels entering and leaving the port. This will improve the fluidity of port operations, reducing waiting times for ships, and optimizing cargo flow management.
The fruitful cooperation with Boluda also illustrates PAL’s commitment to seek competent international partners to enhance its infrastructure and operational capacity. This commitment to port modernization and efficiency confirms PAL’s vision as a key player in regional connectivity.
The Port of Lomé, strategically located on the West African coast, benefits from an enviable geographical position, making it an essential choice for shipowners and international operators. This new acquisition strengthens this advantageous position while opening up new opportunities to attract more maritime traffic and enhance regional trade exchanges.
