Equipment & Maintenance Department
The Equipment Maintenance Department at Northport is responsible for the maintenance work of all operations equipment to ensure everlasting quality and improved performance.
- New Equipment Purchase
Northport retains its competitiveness in the international port system by continuously providing the needs of the progressive industry. The expansion plan by the port calls for the purchase of more new supporting equipment.
This includes the arrival of three units Super Post-Panamax shoreside cranes in 2007 that complement the existing 24 shoreside gantry cranes at the container.
In addition to the ship-to-shore or shoreside cranes, Northport has also taken delivery of a range of cranes and equipment to support the activities at the yard. This includes the acquisition of 12 more straddle carriers, 12 rubber-tyred gantry cranes, 3 high-reach stackers for empties and forklifts.
Our addition of 10 more RTGs will raise the population of RTGs to more than 40, thus marking an important shift in our efforts to optimize terminal efficiency through high density operations.
