Carmel Terminal

Construction has been completed of the the Carmel Container Terminal, which is the main facility fulfilling the company's vision, and positioning Haifa Port as one of the most advanced in the world. The Carmel Quay serves as a container terminal operating two quaysides. The first is 700 meters in length and the second is 250 meters long. The water alongside both quaysides is 15.5 meters deep. The quay has the potential to increase Haifa Port's container throughput by 1 million TEUs annually, while the quay's infrastructures enable the largest and most modern Super Post-Panamax (SPP) container ships to dock. The company has purchased the most advanced handling equipment, operating systems and technologies available in the world's ports sector. The Carmel Quay will be operated electronically (but green) by six 75-meter high SPP Ship-To-Shore Gantry cranes, which will serve up to 18 rows of containers across the ship's deck. Twelve electric (green) rail mounted gantry cranes (RMGs) will operate a container storage yard in the Carmel Terminal's hinterland. The RMGs will be suitable for storing up to 11 containers by width and 5 containers by height between its supports.

Computerized Container Terminal Management Systems (TOS)
Alongside operating the Carmel terminal,  Haifa Port will integrate an advanced Terminal operating System (TOS) from ZES to manage the production floor of all Port's container terminals and gates. Integrating this advanced system will be a required milestone and platform for the continued improvement of the level of service to the company's customers, and will best take advantage of the operational equipment and human resources at the company's disposal.
