The components of the four RTG cranes arrived in Valencia on Thursday on-board the Medazov Julia, consigned by A Perez y Cia and the project’s 116 pieces, with a total weight of 368 tonnes, and were unloaded on Friday.
The whole process of assembly and “plug & play” will be carried out in an area that has been specially equipped for TCV at the northern end of ??the Muelle de Levante terminal in the Port of Valencia. The work has been planned so as not to interfere in any way with the daily operations of the terminal.
The assembly process will involve the manufacturer’s engineering team, as well as those of the terminal itself.
It is planned to have the four new RTG available for operation by the TCV Stevedoring Company within two months, resulting in increased efficiency of the container terminal.
