ALGECIRAS : APM Terminals Algeciras completed operations on the vessel Mayview Maersk with a Productive Moves Per Hour (PMPH) of 201.63, breaking the terminal’s previous record of 200 PMPH.

This record was achieved by eight operating ship-to-shore (STS) cranes and during a port stay of 14.51 hours, compared to the target of 18.52.

“We are extremely proud to be joining the «200 PMPH club» and by doing so, writing a new chapter in the history of operations here in Algeciras,” stated Zsanett Balla, Chief Operating Officer at APM Terminals Algeciras.
