“Dorothea Rickmers” stood out between the 26 ships which called the Leixões Container Terminal between the 19th and the 25th November. That’s why it became the Ship of the 47th week.
The reason of the distinction was the number of containers handled, which corresponded to 2,369 TEU.
However, the operations’ productivity deserves also a note. “Dorothea Rickmers” began the operations at 1:37 pm on the 18th and the operations ended at 4:45 pm on the 20th.
At each hour of effective work 42 containers were handled!
Quite a remarkable performance, which translates well the operational capacity of TCL and the effort which has been done to reduce at a minimum level the idle time of the ships in port.
