Good morning Colleagues
As always, the Cape is different and strives to be as such! We do not disappoint!
While the rest of South African ports are suffering with chronic congestion and delays, the PoCT is fluid, with 3 vessels alongside at CTICC, 2 at MPT and 3 at FPT, and no berthing delays!
In fact, the message is ‘PoCT is open for business’ – we are aware of daily discussions between the national EXCO team of TNPA of how to manage the situation, for Cape Town to assist the other ports with their chronic backlog.
Stats for week 20 – 26/11 below:
- CTCT : 15861 TEU handled, 14 GCH 32 SWH 23.75 hours wind delay, 14.6 hours ranging, on 26th November 3110 TEU handled; 14% night utilisation 305 rail moves
