Latest News

1 April 2024 - On Monday 1 April, the world’s first large methanol-powered deep-sea vessel ‘Ane Maersk’ called the Antwerp port at the MSC PSA European Terminal (MPET). ​The vessel completed its first bunker operation in European waters, bunkering 4.300 tons of green methanol and 1.375 tons of biodiesel (B100) during the port stay. The successful and efficient bunkering is a new milestone in Port of Antwerp-Bruges’ ambition to become a multifuel port.

Efficient bunkering

19 March 2024 - On Sunday, March 17, 2024, MPET had the privilege of welcoming one of the world's largest container ships, the MSC China. This arrival set a new record for MPET: a call size (number of handled containers) of a staggering 26,201 TEU. "If we were to line up all the handled containers end to end, we would reach from the MPET terminal to Dunkirk," says MPET CEO Johan Van Daele.

The MSC China, which made its maiden voyage on October 19, 2023, has a total length of 399.99 meters and a deck spanning an area equivalent to four standard football fields.

5 February 2024 - Our family comprises 3,900 employees. Each of them is a skilled expert, working tirelessly every day to ensure the smooth transportation of thousands of containers or general cargo to their final destinations. Yet, there are also many employees who actively contribute to those in need in their personal lives. As a company, we don't want to overlook this aspect.

Stuffing and Stripping

Containers can be stuffed and stripped by specialized personnel at all our terminals. Stuffing and stripping can either take place after delivery onto quayside or directly from the carrier into the container. In the latter case, significant savings can be realized, particularly when loading oversized cargo. It also avoids an additional special transport of the loaded flat. Even when stuffing containers without oversized dimensions, additional transport of containers in the port can be avoided in many cases, as stuffing takes place at the export terminal itself. The same benefits apply to the stripping of import containers

Hinterland

PSA Antwerp and its hinterland partners offer an extensive network of hinterland connections bookable via a new Inland CY concept. As such, containers routed via the terminals at quay 1742, quay 913, quay 869 and quay 420 can be directly delivered to and from a selected number of inland terminals.
 
With this concept PSA meets the increasing demand for integrated pre- and on carriage services directly from our deepsea terminals. This full service offering guarantees a hassle-free transport of containers to the hinterland and provides an important contribution to more efficient, more reliable and 'greener' supply chains.
