Other Facilities

On the eastern side of Port Taranaki's harbour is a 6.5 hectare reclamation which if required, could be extended further into the harbour. Fitzroy Yachts
Limited, TCF Limited (boat storage) and Tasman Marine (retail and marine services) currently lease areas of this flat land. Opportunities for further uses are available.

Another special feature of Port Taranaki is its "heavy lift" expertise. Taranaki has a sophisticated engineering infrastructure, which evolved primarily as a result of development of the region's oil and gas industries. As the petrochemical industries grew many oversized and heavy cargoes were imported and exported through Port Taranaki. Specialist know-how and facilities are available through Port Taranaki for the handling of extra heavy lifts.

Port Taranaki has a syncrolift available for maintenance requirements of vessels up to 150 tonnes. There is a computer-based twin platform weighbridge on site and a variety of hoppers for the loading onto trucks and rail wagons of imported goods such as fertilizers and grains.
