Enhancing BMT in Algeria
Bejaia Mediterranean Terminal (BMT SPA), operated by Portek International in a joint venture with the Algerian port authority, Enterprise Portuaire de Bejaia, is expanding its equipment.
Since its first foray into port operations in 1999, Portek breached the one million teu mark in 2018, also due to its engagement with BMT
With an annual capacity of 300,000 teu, this is the only terminal in the North African Algeria with ship-to-shore gantry cranes and a dedicated installation for refrigerated containers.
Now, a new rubber-tyred gantry crane (RTG) joins the other three other Kalmar RTG units delivered to BMT in 2011 and 2013. BMT’s equipment fleet also includes Kalmar reachstackers and empty container handlers. (mw)
