Charleston to accommodate its first 13,092-TEU mega ship
THE South Carolina Ports Authority (SPCA) says it will handle its biggest ship to date when the 13,092-TEU Cosco Development with the OCEAN Alliance's South Atlantic Express (SAX), docks at Charleston in May.
The SAX service connects Charleston with Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Yantian, Ningbo and Shanghai via the Panama Canal.
The Cosco Development is one of 11 ships deployed on the SAX service, ranging in size from 11,000 to 13,000 TEU.
Eighteen of SCPA's 24 weekly container cargo services deploy ships that were previously too large to pass through the Panama Canal before its expansion.
