The airport is also building a large fuel farm with a 45,000 metric ton capacity. This would remove the need for fuel trucks, improving safety and cutting turnaround times. Also being built is a new terminal which is expected to be completed by 2025. This will help serve 7.3 million passengers a year. This is a huge improvement to the current 1 million passengers being served every year.
