The days in which more than 2,000 TEU at the Leixões Container Terminal are handled are more and more frequent. Result of the operational capacity of TCL and of handling more containers per scale (of bigger ships, but not only).
That’s what happened again on the 3rd week, particularly on the 16th of January. Six ships were then operated and 1,481 containers were handled on the quay (2,274 TEU).
With that important aid, the 3rd week at TCL resulted in the operation of 20 ships and the handling of 5,829 containers (9,247 TEU).
But there was more. On yard, 6,346 containers were handled, between 3,276 which arrived and 3,070 which left by land.
