BALTIC Hub at Gdansk, the largest container terminal in the Baltic Sea, has reported record volumes and significant investment milestones in 2024, marking a pivotal year for the company's development.
The Baltic Hub container terminal has summarised its results for 2024. Over the past 12 months, the largest container terminal in the Baltic Sea posted record transshipments.
Last year was intense for Baltic Hub not only because of the large volumes of cargo handled but also due to the progress in construction works at the T3 terminal and other projects.
The terminal's operating result for 2024 amounted to 2.242 million TEU, surpassing 2023's figures. In 2024, Baltic Hub serviced 642 ships, including 147 ocean-going vessels.
It is worth mentioning that in July, a record number of transshipments occurred with the arrival of one of the larger units, reaching 20,400 TEU.
Last year, on June 5, the cornerstone for the construction of the third T3 terminal was also laid. The new quay and storage yards at the T3 terminal will strengthen the position of Baltic Hub, increasing transshipment capacity to 4.5 million TEU per year.
The new terminal will be semi-automatic, meaning operators will be able to remotely control devices from ergonomically designed stations, ensuring a safe, efficient, and modern working environment year-round.
"The construction of the T3 terminal is an important stage in the development of Baltic Hub and an example of how Polish port infrastructure operates," said Baltic Hub CEO Charles Baker.
The terminal has gained new cranes. In July last year, the terminal launched a fourth RMG crane on the railway siding, increasing the siding's capacity to over 800,000 TEU per year.
