What Participants Will Learn

The program turns complex feasibility studies into a step-by-step process that non-technical leaders can understand and guide.

  • Structure a port or terminal feasibility study from problem definition to recommendations.
  • Analyse cargo demand, hinterland connections and competitive landscape.
  • Translate traffic forecasts into capacity, layout and investment options.
  • Understand environmental, social and regulatory considerations at a high level.
  • Review financial models and risk assessments with sharper questions.
Who Should Attend

Tailored for decision-makers and project teams who commission, review or contribute to port development studies.

  • Port authority and ministry officials.
  • Infrastructure and PPP units in government.
  • Developers, investors and lenders focused on port assets.
  • Consultants, engineers and planners working on port studies.

Curriculum Overview

Four modules that follow the logical flow of a feasibility study and port development journey.

1
Context, Vision & Demand
Defining why a new port, terminal or expansion is being considered. Understanding trade flows, hinterland, competitors and stakeholder expectations. Building realistic demand scenarios instead of “wishful thinking”.
2
Capacity, Layout & Technical Options
Translating demand into berth, yard and equipment needs. Comparing alternative layouts and development phasing. Overview of key technical choices (water depth, access, equipment types) and their cost / performance implications.
3
Environment, Social & Regulatory Lens
High-level view of environmental and social impact assessments, land use, resettlement issues and permitting. How to integrate sustainability and resilience early instead of treating them as late “add-ons”.
4
Financial Feasibility, Risk & Implementation
Basics of project financials: investment, operating cost, revenue, NPV/IRR and sensitivity checks. Understanding risk allocation in PPP / concession structures. Turning feasibility findings into a realistic implementation roadmap.
