G6 Alliance starts Suez port calls

6/1/2012 10:19:22 AM

The Suez Canal Container Terminal (SCCT) received and worked the first eastbound call of the new ABX (Asia - Black Sea Express) Service operated by the G6 Consortium, comprised of APL, Hapag-Lloyd AG, Hyundai Merchant Marine, Mitsui O.S.K Lines, Nippon Yusen Kaisha and Orient Overseas Container Line.

The MOL Performance arrived ahead of schedule, having called at Odessa, Constanza, Istanbul and Ashdod. She will continue her sailing back out to the Far East, calling at Singapore, Ningbo, Shanghai, Shekou and Hong Kong, APM Terminals said in a statement today.

With 18 Cranes, 2,400m of quay and a year round draft capability of 15m, SCCT is the largest terminal in the East Med, handling over three million TEUs last year, an increase of 13 percent over 2010. The capacity of the terminal has been designed to handle more than five million TEUs and is expected to reach this figure by 2015.
