The TEC2 facility will be developed in three stages; Phase I with an annual throughput capacity of 1.2 million TEU is expected to begin operations by the first quarter of 2015.

When fully completed, TEC2, representing an investment of approximately $900 million, will provide shipping companies with 1,485 metres of berth, 16 STS cranes, and an annual throughput capacity of 4.1 million TEU.
