New cranes reach Guam
Three gantry cranes purchased jointly by Horizon Lines Inc. and Matson Navigation Co. arrived Sunday in the Port of Guam.
The two U.S. Jones Act container carriers acquired the cranes from the Port of Los Angeles in 2008 and have retrofitted and modified the cranes to enhance their productivity and handling capabilities.
The cranes are scheduled to be installed at the Port of Guam over the next month and are anticipated to be operational by the end of March.
