New equipment arrives at TECON Salvador
May, 15, 2020 Posted by datamarnewsWeek 202021
On Wednesday May 13th, Tecon Salvador received three portainers (ship to shore cranes) and five RTGs (patio cranes on wheels), to be used in the area that is being expanded by the terminal.
RTGs handle 65 tons at a time, and will serve vessels similar to the largest container carriers in operation in the world, with a hoisting capacity of 51 meters. With the current investments in the expansion project (around R $ 443 million), the terminal, located in the state of Bahia, will be able to dock two large vessels (366 meters) simultaneously.
