"Thomas Maersk", from Maersk Line, stood out among the 23 ships that called the Leixões Container Terminal in week no. 33.

The main reason for the distinction as Ship of the Week had to do, obviously, with the number of containers handled: the equivalent to 1,376 TEU.

But it was also noteworthy the productivity achieved in the operations. The first container was handled at 18h18, on August 16, and the last was handled at 21h54, on the next day. Accounts made, in every hour of actual work 59 containers were handled, almost one per minute.

"Thomas Maersk" justified, thus, fully, being the new Ship of the Week.
