December 9th, 2019; Hutchison Ports Thailand (HPT), the largest terminal operator in Thailand, recently welcomed twenty terminal tractor heads and chassis. The terminal tractor heads will be operated inside Terminal D, Laem Chabang Port. This latest investment reflects HPT’s concern towards their staff being able to work with quality equipment. The investment is also part of HPT’s plan to continuously expand themselves as well as their customers base within Thailand. Upon completion of Terminal D, the terminal will be able to support some of the world’s largest vessels, with 1,700 meters of quay length. Equipped with the latest technologies such as the remote-controlled system for its 17 quay cranes and 43 rubber tyred gantry cranes, the annual throughput capacity of Terminal D is expected to be around 3.4 million TEUs.
