The Ecuadorian Ministry of Transport and Public Works recently gave its green light for Contecon Guayaquil SA (CGSA) to accommodate mega vessels of up to 305 meters in length at Port of Guayaquil’s Berths 2 and 3. 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.
Hellenicshippingnews.com quoted Enrique K. Razon Jr., ICTSI chairman and president, as saying:“Our public-private partnership in the Port of Guayaquil is one of the most successful concessions in our portfolio. The government’s trust, through their approval for CGSA to handle mega vessels, speaks of our excellent track record in operating the port. It represents the harmonious relationships we have with our regulators, shipping line clients, port stakeholders, and our employees.”
