DP World Mundra sets crane productivity record on Maersk vessel
MUNDRA International Container Terminal (MICT) has set a new productivity record of 49.5 moves per crane per hour while handling Maersk Line's 8,540-TEU Seroja Lima.
"The latest achievement of 49.5 crane moves per hour exceeded the terminal's earlier productivity record of 48.97 moves per crane per hour which was set in August 2014," the terminal's operator, DP World Mundra, said in a statement.
Chief executive officer Sumesh Padmanabhan was cited as saying in a report by Hellenic Shipping News Worldwide: "We will continue zealously to keep this momentum going to drive new business and establish strategic partnerships with our clients."
The company said MICT's strategic location, hinterland connectivity and on-dock rail facilities have been attractive to shipping lines globally.
DP World said with its committed pipeline of developments and expansions, its global terminals' combined capacity of 79.6 million TEU is expected to increase to 100 million TEU by 2020.
