Watch: Hutchison Ports Thailand welcomes its largest ship ever

Published:

Hutchison Ports Thailand (HPT) recently welcomed the container ship 'ONE Columba', the largest vessel to ever call Terminal D at Laem Chabang Port.

The ship, owned by the Japanese joint venture Ocean Network Express (ONE), with a total length of 364 meters and a total gross tonnage of 145,647 tons, became also the largest container vessel ever to call at Laem Chabang Port in Thailand.

The vessel was met by delegates of Terminal D in the morning of 24 November, having departed Laem Chabang Port one day later. The vessel was met with new remote-controlled quay cranes and remote-controlled rubber tyred gantry cranes that HPT used to discharge container boxes from the vessel to the yard with fast and safe operations.
