Four million teu in Gdynia


In the Polish port of Gdynia, the terminal operator Hutchison Ports marked the milestone of having handled 4 million teu since the commencement of operations in March 2006. The 4 millionth container was discharged from MV “Durande”, serving Hapag-Lloyd’s NPX (North Sea Poland Express) service.

 

Over the last fourteen years, Hutchison Ports has invested more than EUR 100 million, which transformed the former shipyard company owned by Gdynia Shipyard into a modern container handling facility.

 

As from Q4/2021, modernisations currently carried out at Bulgarskie Quay will enable GCT to accept the largest vessels able to enter Gdynia Port (max length 367 m / max draft 13.0 m).

 

Bulgarskie Quay is equipped with two rail gauges and axle loads sufficient for quay cranes with the outreach of 70 m. The quay will be dredged up to 15.5 m. In 2019, the Port of Gdynia recorded a throughput of 24 million t. (cd)
