Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT), International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI)’s fully automated container handling facility in Australia, has achieved 5 million TEU since opening.
The recent completion of the terminal extension boosted VICT’s capacity by 30 per cent to 1.25 million TEU, allowing for the smooth handling of bigger vessels and meeting expanding demand.
Furthermore, ICTSI reported that VICT prioritises operational efficiency by consistently investing in cutting-edge technologies.
This includes the procurement of new automated stacking cranes and super post-Panamax ship-to-shore (STS) cranes, which have helped to simplify operations, improve cargo handling capacities, and assure shorter turnaround times for vessels and trucks.

Bruno Porchietto, VICT Chief Executive Officer, said: “Since opening our doors at Webb Dock in 2017, VICT has been dedicated to continuous improvement, investing heavily in innovative technology, the highest safety and sustainability standards, and the well-being of our valued staff. Reaching 5 million TEU is a testament to this unwavering commitment and a significant accomplishment for the entire VICT team.”
In March, VICT recently completed Phase 3A of its expansion project.
