Panama tillader større bredde i nye sluser

Panama Canal Authority, ACP, har meddelt, at myndigheden vil øge den maksimalt tilladte bredde for fartøjer i de nye Neopanamax sluser med mere end to meter, hvilket uundgåeligt vil resultere i, at endnu større skibe kan gøre brug af vandvejen.

”Efter næsten to års succesfulde operationer af Neopanamax-sluserne, har Panamakanalens myndighed lyst til at meddele en øgning i den maksimalt tilladte bredde for fartøjer, der passerer disse sluser”, siger ACP i en erklæring.

ACP sagde i en vejledende erklæring i denne måned, at den nye maksimale bredde, der tillades fra 1. juni 2018 bliver på 51,25 meter, over to meter mere end den nuværende på 49 meter. Bredden måles på ydersiden af et skibs skrog og alle fremspringende strukturer under kanten af slusevæggene.

Den udvidede Panama Canal blev åbnet for skibe i juni 2016, og indtil videre har mere end 3.000 skibe sejlet gennem de nye Neopanamx-sluser.

I august 2017 blev CMA CGM Theodore Roosevelt det største containerskib, der passerede gennem den udvidede Panamakanals nye sluser under en rejse fra Asien til USAs østkyst. CMA CGM Theodore Roosevelt er på 14.855 TEU og måler 365,9 meter i længden og 48,2 meter i bredden.
