NorthPort, the Philippines’ premier domestic gateway operated by International Container Terminal Services Inc., is strengthening its operational capability with the acquisition of two Konecranes Gottwald ESP 5 mobile harbor cranes (MHCs).
The new equipment forms a key part of the terminal’s ongoing program to modernize cargo handling operations, support growing domestic trade volumes, and ensure reliable service for customers, shipping lines and logistics partners.
The ESP 5 MHCs offer a 41-ton lifting capacity and a 46-meter outreach across 13 bays. They will be deployed at Pier 10 to enhance the future-readiness of Terminal 2, operating alongside the eight quay cranes currently serving Terminal 1.
NorthPort to service more vessels simultaneously
The additional lifting capacity will enable NorthPort to service more vessels simultaneously, increasing quayside productivity and improving overall berth utilization.
With domestic trade demand steadily growing, NorthPort continues to invest in equipment and infrastructure that improve efficiency and operational resilience.
