However as we begin the new year, APM Terminal Pipavav is well positioned to take advantage of diversified offering of container, bulk, liquid and RoRo cargo.  The addition of three new container cranes and enhanced capacity to 1.35 million TEUs will help reduce turnaround time and increase productivity at the port.”
