KUALA LUMPUR — Port Klang and Port of Tanjung Pelepas have maintained their top 20 ranking.

In a statement today, Westports Malaysia Sdn Bhd said Port Klang moved up one rung from 14th to 13th spot with 8.87 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) with Westports contributing 5.57 million TEUs.

It said PTP moved up a rung from 17th to 16th place with 6.54 million TEUs.

Westports said global container throughput hit a record 560 million TEUs in 2010, a growth of 14.5 per cent compared with the previous year.

It said according to estimates by axs-alphaliner.com — the worldwide reference in liner shipping — the Chinese ports led the growth, followed by South American ports which grew by 17.6 per cent.

The Chinese ports recorded an annual increase of 17.9 per cent as total container volume handled in China (including Hong Kong) rose to 169 million TEUs, or 30.1 per cent of last year's global total, up from 29.3 per cent the year before, it said.

Westports said China now accounted for nine of the world's Top 20 ports, with most of the main Chinese ports recording faster growth than ports in other regions.

It said Hutchison Ports Holdings regained its global lead among the port operators, with total volume rising by 14.9 per cent to 75 million TEUs last year.

Second-place APM Terminals fell behind as it posted a below-average growth of only two per cent to an estimated 70 million TEUs, it said.

For this year, Westports said, growth was expected to moderate to 8.4 per cent as volume returned to more sustainable levels with Chinese ports again expected to lead the gains this year. – BERNAMA
