The CMA CGM Group has signed a binding agreement to acquire GCT Bayonne and New York terminals, currently held by Global Container Terminals Inc (GCT).
Once completed, CMA Terminals Khalifa Port will have an initial capacity of 1.8 million TEUs, and will significantly enhance Khalifa Port's connectivity and position as a key gateway for the region.
French container shipping major CMA CGM is moving its operations to a larger terminal at the Port of Yokohama, set to be equipped with shore power and LNG bunkering infrastructure.
The solution was also recently ordered for the first time by a marine salvage customer, for deployment as a 'response kit' to container fires on ships.
