The world's top 25% of international shipping ports will improve efficiency


Officials, partners and elected representatives of the Port of Everglades unveiled three new super-Panamax container gantry cranes. These 53-meter-high cranes will take the operational efficiency of the port of South Florida to new heights. According to the latest container port performance index, the operational efficiency of the Port of Everglades ranks among the top 25% of the world's ports.


According to the statement, the super post-Panamax crane, known for its extended range and enhanced load-bearing capacity, is good at handling containers piled up from deck to 8 feet high and can span 22 containers. This is in stark contrast to the port's previous seven "post-Panamax" cranes, which are 46 meters high and can only handle containers 6 meters high, and can handle up to 16 containers.


With these three new cranes, Everglades Port now has a total of 13 container gantry cranes, including 6 Super Panamax and 7 Panamax container cranes, and one mobile port crane.


"With the commissioning of new cranes, our historic $471 million South Harbor Turning Gap expansion project is nearing completion." Everglades Acting Port Director Glenn Wiltshire said. "We appreciate the county commission's investment over the years in building port infrastructure that benefits the men and women workers working at these terminals and the regional economy."


The ceremony featured a moment of silence to pay tribute to the six people who tragically lost their lives in the collapse of the Baltimore Harbor Bridge. In addition, it paid tribute to the countless others in the harbor and community who were affected by the incident. 



全球排名前25%的国际海运港口将提升效率


       埃弗格莱兹港的官员、合作伙伴和民选代表为三台新的超巴拿马型集装箱龙门吊揭幕。这些高达53米的起重机将把南佛罗里达港口的运营效率提升到新的高度。目前最新的集装箱港口绩效指数,埃弗格莱兹港的运营效率在全球港口中排名前25%。


       根据声明,超级后巴拿马型起重机以其延伸的范围和增强的承重能力而闻名,擅长处理从甲板堆到8英尺高的集装箱,可以跨越22个集装箱。这与该港口之前的7台“后巴拿马型”起重机形成了鲜明对比,这些起重机高46米,只能处理6米高的集装箱,最多可以处理16个集装箱。


       加上这三台新起重机,埃弗格莱兹港现在总共拥有13台集装箱龙门起重机,其中包括6台超级巴拿马型和7台巴拿马型集装箱起重机,以及一台移动式港口起重机。


       “随着新起重机的调试,我们历史性的4.71亿美元的南港转弯缺口扩建项目即将完成。”Everglades港口代理主任Glenn Wiltshire称:“我们赞赏县委员会多年来为建设港口基础设施所做的投资,这有利于在这些码头工作的男女工人和地区经济。”


       仪式以默哀为特色,向在巴尔的摩港大桥倒塌中不幸丧生的六个人致敬。此外,它还向港口和社区内受此事件影响的无数其他人表示敬意。
