Port Handling Equipment

Port equipment is managed by a private company called Terminal San Pedro (TSP). The port authority does not carry out any cargo handling operations, neither on board of the vessels nor ashore. The port has therefore no cargo handling equipment whatsoever. The port provides weighbridge facilities (60 MT capacity). All trucks or tractors and trailers are weighed as they enter and leave the port.

The Port Autonome de San Pedro has bought a GODWALL mobile crane – capacity 100 MT or 40 MT at 40 meters for assisting vessels with the discharge and loading of containers. This will allow gearless container vessels to call at San Pedro. The crane will be operated by MSC shipping line but will be available to all the stevedoring companies operating at San Pedro port.

The stevedoring companies also have a lot of forklits and equipment to operate conventional and breakbulk vessels. The Daily Take Off Capacity is 2000 ton for bulk cargo; 12 hours maximum residence time in the harbour for container ships and up to 48 hours for other vessels

Container Facilities

There are no specific container berths at San Pedro. All containers are discharged and loaded with  a GODWALL mobile crane.
The 4 multi-purpose general cargo berths are indifferently used for general cargo vessels, containers vessels and grain vessels. The latter ones are berthed at the North end of the quayside close to the GMA’s silos.
All the private stevedoring companies have a dedicated container stacking area.
