A view of Chan May Port in Hue City.

Mr. Nguyen Khac Toan, Chairman of the Hue City People’s Committee, has officially signed a decision granting in-principle investment approval for the construction of Wharf No. 6 at Chan May Port, located within the central city’s Chan May – Lang Co Economic Zone.

According to the decision, the project will cover an area of more than 15.5 ha, consisting of over 13.2 ha of land and nearly 2.3 ha of water surface.

This is a key infrastructure project aimed at gradually completing the Chan May deep-water port system to meet the increasing demand for maritime transport in the Central Vietnam region.

In terms of technical specifications, the project includes the construction of a wharf system featuring one berth designed to accommodate general cargo, container, bulk, and liquid cargo vessels with a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of up to 70,000 tons. The remaining two berths will be capable of receiving vessels up to 10,000 DWT. The project also encompasses technical infrastructure, warehouses, yards, and machinery to facilitate efficient import and export operations.

Wharf No. 6 is oriented toward an integrated development model, combining wharves, storage yards, and advanced equipment to provide stevedoring, warehousing, freight transport, and other related logistics services.

Once operational, the wharf is expected to significantly boost cargo throughput capacity—particularly for containerized goods—meeting the growing logistics requirements of the region and neighboring provinces.

The project has a total investment of over VND928 billion (over $35 million). Of this, the investor’s equity contribution must represent a minimum of 20% of the total capital, with the remainder to be mobilized from other legal sources in accordance with regulations.
