Port of Hamburg welcomed the \u2018AAL Kembla\u2019 on her first call in Germany<\/a>\u2019s largest universal port. She berthed at C. Steinweg\u2019s multi-purpose S\u00fcd-West-Terminal.<\/p>\n AAL Shipping is deploying the heavy-lift\/project cargo ship on its new monthly liner service connecting ports in Europe<\/a>, the Middle East<\/a>, India and Asia. The service is overseen by AAL\u2019s Hamburg office, opened in 2012, which also offers tailormade tramp chartering shipping to all regions in the world. \u00a0<\/p>\n Built in 2011, the \u2018AAL Kembla\u2019 is one of the carrier\u2019s second generation A-class multi-purpose, heavy-lift vessels. She is 193.81 meters long and 29.1 meters wide, with a draft of 9.2 meters. The vessel has four shipboard cranes and a maximum lift capacity of 700 tons. The dead-weight tonnage of the \u2018AAL Kembla\u2019 is 31,000 dwt.<\/p>\n In the Port of Hamburg, dominated by container handling, heavy-lift shipments are a specialized field. Project\/heavy-lift cargo is classified as \u2018Conventional General Cargo\u2019. This covers cargo that containers cannot transport on account of size and\/or weight limitations, including large vehicles, machines, plant and out-of-gauge iron & steel products.<\/p>\n During her first call in Hamburg at C. Steinweg\u2019s S\u00fcd-West-Terminal, the \u2018AAL Kembla\u2019 loaded steel plate for discharge in Shanghai and chemical components for Masan in South Korea.<\/p>\n Hamburg is very well placed as a universal port, with its range of general and project cargo shipping companies. Generally connected trimodally, its terminals with their state-of-the-art handling equipment are the basis for its significance in the international general cargo transport chain.<\/p>\n Handling, transport and warehousing of general cargo generate high added value: almost one-third of regular liner services in the Port of Hamburg transport non-containerized general cargo. In 2019 general & heavy-lift cargo ships and special vessels for wheeled \u2013 RoRo \u2013 or refrigerated cargo accounted for 17 percent of all calls in the port. General cargo handling totaled 1.4 million tons, 1.1 million tons being exports.<\/p>\n marine link<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Port of Hamburg welcomed the \u2018AAL Kembla\u2019 on her first call in Germany\u2019s largest universal port.
