It is, fortunately, a more and more frequent figure; still, it deserves to be mentioned.
On week # 13, the Container Terminal of Leixões exceeded, once again, the 9,000 handled TEU limit. This time it was precisely 9,441.
Considering the number of containers, the week had a balance of 5,988 units, handled from/to 52 ships.
Another frequent fact at TCL is the overcoming of 2,000 TEU handled on only one working day. And so it happened again, this 13th week of the year, precisely on Saturday the 27th of March, when 1,355 containers were loaded/discharged (2,214 TEU), from a total of eight ships.
By land 2,800 containers entered the Container Terminal of Leixões, and 2,659 left, amounting to a total of 5,459 movements on yard.
With such good figures, it’s easy to sense that the number 13 is not a sign of bad luck for TCL.
