There were not many ships calling the Container Terminal of Leixões on the 47th week. However, the number of TEU handled could well be written on the honour book of the national container terminals concessionaires.
In fact, the 47th week was far from the average of operated ships, with a record of only 35 units.
This notwithstanding, the number of containers handled reached 7,043 (11,123 TEU), a figure deserving to be remembered, as well as contributing for a good monthly result, and to a significant annual growth of the activity.
Thursday the 18th was the toughest working day at TCL, after nine ships operated and 1,444 containers handled (2,120 TEU). A more special figure, still, with a dimension which is becoming more and more frequent.
In-line with the results achieved on the quay, on yard it was all go. Along the 47th week 2,901 containers were received, and 2,967 were delivered, adding up to a movement of more than 5,868 units.
