Source basis

Mota-Engil's regulated market notice states that Mota-Engil Africa signed an approximately EUR 230 million contract with DP World for Banana Port's first phase and gives an estimated 24-month term. DP World's same-day release confirms contractor selection and the designed terminal frame. The contract notice does not allocate every marine work element, state a verified start or completion percentage, or establish port opening. The image records the actual contract event and is not presented as construction progress. The profile is independent of any endorsement or commercial relationship.
