Hibiki Container Terminal

In Japan, the ‘Hibiki Container Terminal’, which commenced services in April 2005, was the first port to seriously introduce the private finance initiative method. It is a high standard terminal being the only port on the Japan sea side with a 15 meter depth deep water pier that allows over-panamax (/post panamax) large size container ships to enter the port. The terminal’s management and operation has been unified in a company which the mega terminal operator PSA (Singapore) and major domestic port transport enterprises capitalized, known as Hibiki Container Terminal Co., Ltd., which with 24 hour operation etcetera provides a high quality service.
