Dubai: DP World’s just opened Jebel Ali Container Terminal 3 (T3) is set to be the world’s largest semi-automated facility, the terminal operator claims in a release.
The new terminal has 19 automated quay cranes and 50 automated rail mounted gantry (RMG) yard cranes.
Mohammed Sharaf, group CEO, DP World, said: “Automation and new technology are the way of the future and will help our customers and the wider supply chain realise the efficiencies on land that the new mega-ships generate at sea.” [29/01/14]
