Our origins
T-Ports was established in 2018 to initiate the $130 million Lucky Bay Port Facility development, securing private investor equity and debt.
The name T-Ports is based on the use of transhipment vessels, reflecting the innovation central to the Lucky Bay project in moving away from the region’s traditional port model.
The T-Ports difference
T-Ports’ infrastructure strategy centres on developing a more financially feasible ports model. This includes shallow water ports with a lower build cost and smaller environmental footprint requiring modest throughput, providing sound financial returns to investors.
The ports constructed by T-Ports are multi-user and multi-commodity transhipment ports, with the first at Lucky Bay on Eyre Peninsula and a second now built at Wallaroo on Yorke Peninsula. Lucky Bay’s development has been based on agricultural product and over time, will expand to allow the export of non-grain / mineral commodities.
