THE Chennai International Terminals has received four new ship-to-shore quay cranes and eight new rubber tyre gantry cranes (RTGs), reports the Hindu daily.
PSA India managing director V Sivarajan said that the terminal will now have seven quay cranes and 18 RTGs. This would more than double its existing terminal handling capacity.
The private container terminal inside the Chennai port is owned and managed by PSA International of Singapore.
The four post-Panamax quay cranes can lift two TEU per move. All the new cranes will first undergo commissioning tests and will be deployed for operations in May, says PSA.
