Chittagong's PCT gives carriers new Bangladesh options
Bangladesh’s port of Chittagong’s recently inaugurated Patenga Container Terminal (PCT) is ramping up its operations, allowing carriers to explore fresh options for serving Bangladesh.
The terminal is currently serving the 2,750 teu Maersk Chattogram and, for the first time, handling export, import, and empty containers simultaneously.
Chittagong Port Authority (CPA) completed construction of PCT in June 2022 and, in December 2023, signed a deal with Saudi operator Red Sea Gateway Terminal (RSGT) for a 20-year operating concession.
