Access Engineering completes project at Colombo Harbour

(island) - Access Engineering PLC recently handed over completed projects at the Unity Container Terminal (UCT), New North Pier of the Colombo Harbour.

Opened in 2004, the Unity Container Terminal (UCT) is located at the northern end of the harbor and consists of 2 berths for feeder vessels with depths alongside 9 and 11 metres. The 340m long quay is served by 3 panamax gantry cranes of 41t SWL. Eight RTGs serve two stacking areas with 1,020 ground slots.

Following the rapid recovery in transshipment volumes and securing exclusive agreements with some of the world’s biggest shipping lines, the Sri Lanka Ports Authority planned to increase container-handling capacity at its terminals to meet these increasing demands by renovating the Unity Container Terminal as well. Once this expansion is operational along with the Colombo Port Expansion Project, the SLPA would have unmatched capacity at its terminals compared to other container ports in the sub-continent.
