…As mega-ship arrives

This vessel is the first 24,000TEU vessel of the ONE shipping company. It has a 400m LOA and an exact capacity of 24,136TEU.

“The shipping company’s decision to call at the Port of Hamburg with its most modern ship shows that we have done our homework. For example, the terminal operators have state-of-the-art container gantry cranes to efficiently unload and load a ship of this size. In addition, shore power systems are currently being installed at the container terminals in the Port of Hamburg to make the ships’ laytime more environmentally friendly,” says Axel Mattern, CEO of Port of Hamburg Marketing. 

The ship is being deployed on the Asia-Europe service, FE3, by THE Alliance (THEA). It is the first of six new Megamax vessels to join ONE’s core fleet.
