NorthPort, International Container Terminal Services, Inc.’s (ICTSI) domestic terminal in Manila North Harbor, has made progress on the structural strengthening of Pier 14 as part of its three-year terminal upgrade program.
Structural works on the second and third 42.5-meter segments of the pier were completed ahead of schedule, reinforcing the Terminal 1 wharf and advancing efforts to enhance the terminal’s structural integrity and seismic resilience, ICTSI said in a statement.
As of February 2026, wharf strengthening works have moved to the fourth and final 52.5-meter segment of Pier 14.
Current activities include resurfacing the remaining deck area, repairing above-deck damage to prevent structural deterioration, and upgrading the existing fender system from 700 millimeter (mm) to 1,000 mm cell fenders to support safer vessel berthing. ICTSI said these activities are being carried out in parallel to minimize disruptions to ongoing operations.
Pier 14 is part of Terminal 1, which is situated at the north end of NorthPort and includes berth space for ship to shore crane operation, container yard and the Operations Center 1 building.
NorthPort will undertake additional structural works and complete the remaining phases of the terminal upgrade program in 2027. The program is designed to ensure NorthPort remains capable of supporting long-term domestic trade growth while maintaining safe and reliable operations, ICTSI noted.
