INTERNATIONAL Container Terminal Services, Inc (ICTSI) operation in the Port of Rijeka in Croatia, adriatic Gate Container Terminal (AGCT) has recently attained two more milestones by handling a record monthly throughput and the highest single vessel exchange.
AGCT's new highest monthly throughput exceeds the previous record set in July by 11 per cent. This underscores AGCT's growing capacity and key role as Croatia's largest seaport and regional supply chain facilitator for the Balkans and Central Europe.
Emmanuel Papagiannakis, AGCT chief executive officer, said: 'We are pleased with the teamwork and efforts of our staff to achieve this new milestone. I am sure we will have a few more ahead. The result is even more pleasing given that we had been down to single berth operation with the 100-metre deepening project.
'We now see a return to two berth operations as the project is completed in October, improving the terminal's service levels.'
Additionally, AGCT set a new single vessel exchange record during docking of the 7,120-TEU Maersk Huacho.
In the same month, AGCT also achieved an all-time high on the Ocean Alliance, comprised of CMA CGM, COSCO, Evergreen and OOCL, with 3,193 TEUers.
Rail throughput continued to recover following the Red Sea crisis earlier in the year, with rail share reaching more than 41 per cent of total throughput.
