ANOTHER DAY “THREATENING” THE 4,000 TEU ANOTHER DAY “THREATENING” THE 4,000 TEU
2020-06-24



Between 15 and 21 June (week no. 25), the Leixões Container Terminal was "visited” by 27 ships. Short visits, because the terminal operates 24/24 hours, 7/7 days, "envying” rhythms, so that the ships' downtime is always short.

In total, the 27 ships handled 8,121 containers, equivalent to 13,321 TEU.

The best day of the week - in handled units - was Saturday, 20 June, when nine ships (including the Ship of the Week) were operated and 2,357 containers, 3,831 TEU, were unloaded / loaded. It was another day when the 4,000 TEU threshold was very close ...

Still on week no. 25, but now ashore, the Leixões Container Terminal handled another 7,532 containers at the container yard, between 3,663 received and 3,869 shipped, not by ship, but by truck and train.
