For bigger units in Oceania


In the Oceania region, the Marseille-based CMA CGM Group is continuing to deploy its largest vessel in capacity at the Port of Melbourne (PoMC).

 

Recently, the carrier broke its own record previously held by the “CMA CGM Ural” with more than 10,600 teu operated by ANL on the Australia Asia Express 2 (AAX2) service.

 

Now, the “CMA CGM Estelle” berthed at Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT) in Webb Dock. The vessel, with a nominal capacity of almost 11,000 teu, sails in the North Europe Mediterranean Oceania (NEMO) service.

 

Tim Vancampen, VICT chief executive officer, spoke of “our USD 235 million investment that will increase our ability to accommodate increasing vessel sizes in partnership with PoMC in the Webb Dock development." (cd)
