Quicker turnarounds in Subic Bay


Subic Bay International Terminals (Sbitc) is deploying four additional rubber tired gantries (RTG) to enhance its landside operations to support growth prospects in North and Central Luzon in the Philippines. The terminal has an annual capacity of 600,000 teu.

 

Scheduled for delivery by the end of September, the new equipment will augment the terminal’s existing fleet of six RTGs to shorten truck and vessel turnaround times and thus speed up cargo flows.

 

Sbitc started using RTGs in 2019, which resulted in reduced truck dwell times, improved yard utilisation and a 42% in the terminal’s static capacity. (sh)
