en.Wedoany.com Reported - On May 8, the COSCO Shipping Specialized Carriers vessel "Tian Le" departed from the Longtan Container Terminal at Nanjing Port in Jiangsu, China, after completing loading operations, heading directly to Pakistan. This mission marks the first time Nanjing Port has undertaken the export of large wind power equipment and is the maiden voyage of the first wind power equipment transport route from Nanjing to Pakistan.

The "Tian Le" vessel on this voyage has a length of 189.99 meters, a beam of 28.5 meters, and a deadweight tonnage of 37,996.60 tons. It was loaded with 4 sets of wind power equipment (including tower sections and single blades up to 90 meters long), as well as HE power towers, transformers, and other items, totaling 40,000 cubic meters in volume. The wind power towers were produced by a local Nanjing enterprise, with single units weighing nearly 100 tons. The "Nanjing Goods, Nanjing Export" model effectively reduced logistics costs for Nanjing-based companies. This batch of energy equipment will be shipped directly to Karachi Port and Port Qasim in Pakistan for use in local new energy projects.

The Nanjing Maritime Safety Administration provided full support for this export mission, coordinating in advance with the terminal, ship side, cargo owners, and other relevant units to understand the vessel's technical parameters, cargo characteristics, and loading requirements, and guiding the enterprise to improve operational procedures. The administration collaborated with port authorities to ensure efficient customs clearance services, streamlining the approval channels for port entry and exit, ensuring "zero waiting" for vessel berthing operations and "zero delay" for departure clearance. Simultaneously, a three-dimensional "land, sea, and air" integrated supervision system was established to implement real-time control over key processes such as vessel berthing/unberthing, cargo lifting, and lashing and securing.

Since the beginning of this year, the Nanjing Maritime Safety Administration has continuously optimized water safety supervision and government service efficiency. In the first quarter, the cargo throughput and container throughput of Nanjing Port increased by 15.93% and 15.64% year-on-year, respectively. On May 4, under the safeguard of the Nanjing Maritime Safety Administration, the vessel "Ping An Cheng" set sail from the Longtan port area of Nanjing Port to the Port of Chancay in Peru, opening a new foreign trade route "Nanjing Port - Port of Chancay," establishing a new logistics pathway for direct river-sea transport from the Yangtze River Delta to South America.
