The much-anticipated 225 capacity power barge has finally docked at the Tema Fishing Harbor.
The barge which was built by Turkish company, Karpowership, was expected to dock at Tema on Friday afternoon but this was pushed back due to some delays in documentation and routine formalities at the Abidjan Port, where the barge was offloaded by the Black Marlin, a speed deck cargo ship.

The Minister of Power, Dr. Kwabena Donkor, is expected to inspect it tomorrow (Sunday) after which President John Dramani Mahama will inaugurate it in about ten days.
This is one of two barges that are expected as part of the medium term measures adopted by government to mitigate the effects of the power crisis.
