en.Wedoany.com Reported - A team of 25 to 30 people coordinated by Wagenborg Towage Iberica worked for over 30 days at the Andalusia Dock in the Port of Tarragona to complete the dismantling of two STS cranes for DP World. This achievement freed up port facility space, paving the way for the construction of a new multipurpose terminal launched by the COSCO Shipping and PTP alliance, which is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2028.

Each crane weighs approximately 1,350 tons. Work began on April 28, involving structural preparation and reinforcement. The loading phase was carried out using self-propelled modular vehicles from May 18 to 20.

The loading platform left the Port of Tarragona facilities last Saturday (June 6), transported by the 122-meter barge "Wagenborg Barge 11" and towed by the vessel "VB Brent," after confirming safe weather conditions.

To ensure operational safety, the Port of Tarragona implemented a total navigation restriction of six hours during each loading operation, along with risk prevention and marine environmental protection protocols.

The new terminal will occupy at least 226,109 square meters, expandable to 452,218 square meters depending on the development project. The facility is designed to handle high-value cargo such as containers, vehicles, or special goods, and must achieve an annual throughput of at least 125,000 TEUs from 2031.
