Baltimore rated No 1 United States port again for highest productivity
AN independent analysis by IHS Media has found the Port of Baltimore and its Seagirt Marine Terminal the most efficient box shop in the US in the first six months of 2015.
The Port of Baltimore and Seagirt Marine Terminal averaged 75 container moves per hour per berth - a rate faster than all major American ports, reported the American Journal of Transportation.
Earlier this year, IHS named Baltimore the most efficient US port in calendar year 2014, using productivity numbers are compiled by international shipping lines, not ports and terminals.
"This recognition marks the end of a great year for the Port of Baltimore," said Maryland Governor Larry Hogan.
Maersk Line, the world's biggest container line, began serving Baltimore and Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics, the port's largest roll on/roll off customer, recently signed a 30-year contract.
