RED Sea Gateway Terminal (RSGT) Chittagong, the first privately-owned container terminal in Bangladesh, has begun full gateway operations reports London's Port Technology International.
This development follows the arrival of the Maersk Chattogram at RSGT and the completion of trial operations.
This follows a US$3.5 million investment in a new scanner capable of inspecting and processing up to 150 containers per hour.
The terminal has invested $26 million in 14 rubber-tyred gantry (RTG) cranes and $30 million in four ship-to-shore (STS) cranes, with the goal of increasing annual container handling capacity from 250,000 TEU to 600,000 TEU by early 2026.
Said RSGT Bangladesh CEO Erwin Haaze: 'We are proud to be contributing to the growth and modernisation of Bangladesh's maritime trade.'
RSGT International and the Port of Tadjourah recently signed an agreement to invest in and manage a multipurpose facility at the Red Sea-Arabian Sea junction on the East African Coast.
