East Java Multipurpose Terminal opens for operations

The East Java Multipurpose Terminal (EJMT), an International Container Terminal Service, Inc. (ICTSI) facility in Lamongan Regency, Indonesia, has formally opened for operations.

EJMT construction began in March 2023, and the terminal was fully operational within 18 months, serving a wide range of trade demands.

With a 300-metre quay line, a 13.5-metre deep water draft (LAT), a 500-metre swinging basin, and cutting-edge handling equipment for bulk, project, and containerised cargo, EJMT is an adaptable addition to Indonesia’s port infrastructure.

Notably, the terminal reportedly has two of the largest post-Panamax movable harbor cranes in East Java.

Patrick Chan, EJMT Chief Executive Officer, said: “Strategically located in Terminal Umum Tanjung Pakis – Pelabuhan Brondong, alongside Lamongan Shorebase, the new terminal will provide another option for our customers in Lamongan, Tuban, and as far as Central Java, serving both their domestic and international trade requirements.

“Backed by a deep-water berth and the largest mobile harbour cranes in East Java, our customers can now deploy larger vessels, allowing them to load more cargo and reduce their overall costs per unit by calling at EJMT.”

David Lim, Eastern Logistics Chief Executive Officer, stated: “With new international liner connectivity, our oil and gas clients can import materials directly to Lamongan Shorebase, reducing both transit time and logistics costs.

“Our heavy lift deck and advanced crane infrastructure enable efficient handling of heavy-lift cargo, supporting energy sector projects across Indonesia, including wind farm installations and offshore platform development.” Eastern Logistics operates Lamongan Shorebase.”

In August, EJMT received two new Konecranes Gottwald post-Panamax ESP.8 mobile harbour cranes (MHC).
