ICTSI’s port concession in Ecuador bags approval to accommodate larger vessels

A concession of International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI) in Ecuador has received an approval from the government to operate larger vessels.
In a statement, the port operator said the Ecuadorian Ministry of Transport and Public Works has allowed ICTSI’s concession Contecon Guayaquil SA (CGSA) to handle 305-meter mega vessels at Berths 2 and 3 of Port of Guayaquil.
“With this, CGSA is now the first and only terminal in Ecuador with the capacity to serve two mega vessels at the same time, resulting in higher efficiency and productivity levels,” it said. — Denise A. Valdez
