Dong Nai Port in Dong Nai province is striving to handle 20 million tonnes of goods by 2020, four times the current capacity.
The port is expected to be one of the leaders in the country in terms of goods handling capacity, said General Director of the Dong Nai Port JSC Nguyen Thi Bach Mai.
The port system includes the Long Binh Tan terminal situated on the Dong Nai River and Go Dau A and Go Dau B terminals on the Thi Vai River.
The terminals are within the vicinity of major seaports in Ho Chi Minh City and southern Ba Ria – Vung Tau province as well as centralized industrial parks, leading to the high demand for goods transport.
The port is improving its service quality given fierce competition with domestic ports in southern Binh Duong province and Ho Chi Minh City.
It plans to expand areas and increase the capacity of the Long Binh Tan and Go Dau terminals to maximise their advantages.
Dong Nai port invested over 200 billion VND (9.2 million USD) to build a wharf capable of handling 30,000 tonnes of goods per year at the Go Dau terminal.
So far 80 percent of the project has been completed and it is expected to be commissioned this September.
