Deepwater harbour for Berbice

…Chinese firm to conduct study

Guyana moved a step closer to realising its long-held dream of building a deepwater harbour, with a preliminary study on the Berbice River estuary slated to start later this month.

The Chinese State Construction Engineering Company (Latin American and Caribbean) will be in Guyana as of March 23 to conduct the study on the possibilities of constructing a deepwater harbour near the river mouth.

The study is a follow-up on a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) entered between the Government of Guyana and the company.

In a statement, Prime Minister Samuel Hinds noted that the study will be carried out for one week at the company’s expense and without any obligations on the part of the Government.
