A significant capital investment has been allocated by Ports America, Inc, a wholly owned company of the AIG Global Investment Group (AIGGIG), for the development of the Port Newark Container Terminal (PNCT). The original redevelopment plan has been completed, which included strengthened and deepened berths to accommodate super post-panamax vessels, deployment of state-of-the-art container cranes, including 2 new ZPMC cranes, and an expanded straddle carrier fleet.  The installation of our gate technology, advanced terminal management systems and expansion of the near dock rail facility, exclusively used by PNCT   customers, highlight some of the competitive advantages at PNCT.
 

    Today, PNCT continues toward being the most advanced terminal on the East Coast, with the capacity to handle in excess of one million containers (measured in 20-foot equivalent units) and with 4,400 feet of deep water wharf.

 

    Ports America’s commitment to invest, develop and grow PNCT’s terminal capacity, includes landside operations, modern terminal operating equipment, state-of-the-art container cranes, IT management technology and highly trained ILA labor.  As a world class facility, PNCT will significantly increase volume capacity, and container throughput in a safe and secure operation for the customers serving the Port of New York and New Jersey.
