More money for Manila


Philippines-headquartered port and terminal operator International Container Terminal Services (ICTSI) continues to invest in its flagship Manila International Container Terminal (MICT).

 

While the second phase development of MICT’s Berths 7 and 8 is in progress, which will add full back-up areas for the future Berths 9 and 10, the group is likewise refurbishing Berths 1 to 5 and their back up areas.

 

Meanwhile, leading the charge towards an eco-friendlier port operation is the planned acquisition of eight new hybrid rubber tired gantries to add to the 32 hybrid RTG fleet acquired starting 2018.

 

Expected to further improve service levels at the terminal, the new RTGs will further reduce emissions by 50% compared to previous RTGs.

 

ICTSI will also decommission MICT’s first quay crane this year, which will be replaced over the next three years by three new quay cranes – all capable of servicing larger vessels of over 12,500 teu capacity. (sh)
