VIDEO: The world’s largest container ship MSC Gülsün arrives at the Port of Rotterdam
MSC Gülsün arrived at the APMT 2 terminal quay in the Port of Rotterdam.
The vessel, 400 metres long and with a beam of 62 metres, has a 23,756-TEU (twenty-foot standard containers) capacity, making it the world’s largest container ship.
MSC Gülsün is the first container ship capable of transporting 24 containers side by side across the breadth of its hull.
The OOCL HongKong, taken into operation two years ago, was the largest containership until now, with a capacity of 21,413 TEU.
