The newly built Patenga container terminal in Bangladesh Chittagong port will get operational in June, according to Chittagong Port Authority (CPA) chairman Rear Admiral M Shahjahan, who recently said the terminal can handle 145 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) containers annually. The port is capable of handling 50,000 TEU containers now.

Shahjahan said this while meeting ambassador of the European Union (EU) Charles Whiteley, Italian ambassador Enrico Nunziata and a delegation of the Bangladesh Garments Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA), according to Bangladeshi media reports.

Now there are 39,000 TEU containers at the port. Once the Bay Terminal and Patenga Terminal are opened, it will help enhance the capacity of the port, the CPA chairman said.
