The first fully automated terminal in Africa, constructed under the highest quality and safety standards within time and without any arbitration procedures or claims.
The APM Terminals MedPort project is a deep-water terminal covering a 60 hectare site with 2,000 meters of quay, that employs both conventional and advanced operational technology, and a truck gate system.
The 12 remote-controlled super post-Panamax cranes were the world’s largest double trolley Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes, weighing 2.500 metric tons, with a height of 144 meters and an outreach of 72 meters with twin-lift/tandem lift capability.
The remote-controlled cranes provide the fastest, safest and most efficient loading and unloading services to the newest Ultra-Large Container Ships (ULCS), which have capacities of more than 22,000 TEU. There are 30 shuttle carriers and 42 Automated Rail-Mounted Gantry Cranes (ARMGs) are deployed across 21 container yard blocks. There are also three automated gate lanes ‘in’ and two ‘out’.
With this terminal, Tangier Med Port, already among the top 50 container ports worldwide, is now one of the most advanced in the world and has an annual capacity of 9 million TEUs.
