New multipurpose terminal opens in Singapore

Combi Terminal, a new facility for multipurpose vessels carrying a combination of containers and general cargo, has begun operations.

Managed by Jurong Port, the terminal’s launch eliminates the need for multipurpose vessels visiting Singapore to call at separate terminals or berths to load or unload different cargo types.

Ooi Boon Hoe, CEO of Jurong Port, said: “With our Combi Terminal, our customers that carry diverse cargo types on their vessels enjoy the flexibility of shortened ship turnaround time.”
