DP World said it has registered a growth of 17 percent in cargo handling in 2024 compared to the previous year at its International Container Transshipment Terminal (ICTT) at Cochin.
DP World Cochin achieved its all-time high volume in 2024 by handling 840,564 TEUs. DP World Cochin introduced new ship-to-shore cranes, e-RTGs, and expanded yard space, boosting the terminal’s total capacity to approximately 1.4 million TEUs a year in 2024, positioning it as one of the largest terminals in South & East India.
According to the statement, the electrification of all yard equipment minimises the carbon footprint of cargo movement through the terminal, giving customers a competitive edge on sustainability in their supply chain. In 2024, the terminal handled approximately 657 vessel calls. Additionally, the statement said it managed its largest-ever single vessel exchange of 6,157 TEUs with the MSC Aurora.
