10. Evolution of Container Trade
Since the 1960s and 1970s vessel capacity grew, individually and collectively
Only ten years ago, the largest Panamax vessels carried 4,400 TEU

11. Evolution of Container Trade
Today, the threshold of post Panamax mega carriers of 15,000 TEU and soon to be surpassed when Triple E – expected to raise the threshold to 18,000 TEU (expected in the market by 2013)

14. Evolution of shipping
In 2008, a global container fleet of 4,661 vessels held a capacity of 12.1 million TEU
Designs for vessels as 18,000 TEU are expected in the market by 2013
In 2020, vessels of up to 20,000+ TEU are expected
This will in turn drive the radical reduction of port calls on major route and push for development of global mega ports served by fully integrated global networks

15. Evolution of shipping
As a result of dredging the Port of Mombasa received the highest number of “first-calls”, with MSC TIA being the largest with 261m length overall (LOA) and carrying capacity of about 4000 TEU

16. Impact on Port Infrastructures
Modern handling equipment- size of STS gantry cranes depends on ships size
Higher Drafts- puts pressure to carry out expensive dredging works (channel, berth)
Improved cargo handling capacity: yard, new berths
Intermodal facilities: rail and road
IT infrastructures: cargo operation systems, traffic management in the port, billing, gate operations etc. and their integration
Improve port planning and operations

17. Measures taken by KPA 24/7 Operations Development of CFS
Dredging of Mombasa Port
Procuring Additional Equipment
Construction of Berth 19
Integrated Security System
Second Container Terminal
Development of Crude Oil Handling Facility
Development of Dongo Kundu Free Port
LAPSSET

18. Conclusion
The port has increasingly been receiving larger vessels, which includes Panamax vessels
The port has experienced one of the highest growth rates in traffic
Various investments and other measures have been undertaken to serve the growing traffic
There is need for concerted effort by all stakeholders to facilitate cargo clearance and cargo fluidity
