International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI) bagged a 30-year contract to develop and operate Batu Ampar Container Terminal (BACT) in Batam, Indonesia.

In a regulatory disclosure on August 1, ICTSI said PT Batu Ampar Container Terminal, a 75/25 percent joint venture between ICTSI and PT Interport Sarana Infrastruktur Indonesia, signed an agreement with PT Batam Terminal Petikamas (BTP), a subsidiary of an Indonesian state-owned entity formed to develop terminal facilities and infrastructure in Batam Island.

BACT is the main container terminal for Batam Island, a special economic zone in South East Asia located along the Malacca Strait.

BACT has 1,032 meters of operational quay length, five ship-to-shore cranes, and a fully developed backup area. In 2024, the terminal handled more than 600,000 twenty-foot equivalent units.

ICTSI’s joint venture partner, PT Interport Sarana Infrastruktur Indonesia, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PT Indika Energy TBK, a leading Indonesian business engaged in energy, logistics and infrastructure, minerals, green business and digital ventures.

Aside from this new partnership, ICTSI is present in Indonesia through East Java Multipurpose Terminal, which broke ground in October 2023. It is an international gateway designed to support the thriving economies of Lamongan, Tuban and central Java through the handling of containerized, breakbulk and project cargo.
