EAST Java Multipurpose Terminal (EJMT), International Container Terminal Service, Inc's (ICTSI) operation in Lamongan Regency, Indonesia, has officially opened for business.
Construction of EJMT began in March 2023, and within 18 months, the terminal was fully equipped to serve diverse trade needs.
With a 300-metre quay line, deep water draft of 13.5 metres (LAT), a 500-metre swinging basin, and state-of-the-art handling equipment for bulk, project, and containerized cargo, EJMT is a sought-after and versatile addition to Indonesia's port infrastructure. Notably, the terminal boasts of two of the largest post-Panamax mobile harbour cranes in East Java.
Explaining the terminal's significance, Patrick Chan, EJMT chief executive officer, said: "Strategically located in Terminal Umum Tanjung Pakis - Pelabuhan Brondong, alongside Lamongan Shorebase, the new terminal will provide another option for our customers in Lamongan, Tuban, and as far as Central Java, serving both their domestic and international trade requirements.
"Backed by a deep-water berth and the largest mobile harbour cranes in East Java, our customers can now deploy larger vessels, allowing them to load more cargo and reduce their overall costs per unit by calling EJMT."
David Lim, Eastern Logistics chief executive officer, further highlighted EJMT's impact for the oil and gas sector: "With new international liner connectivity, our oil and gas clients can import materials directly to Lamongan Shorebase, reducing both transit time and logistics costs.
"Our heavy lift deck and advanced crane infrastructure enable efficient handling of heavy-lift cargo, supporting energy sector projects across Indonesia, including wind farm installations and offshore platform development."
