ICTSI'S EAST JAVA MULTIPURPOSE TERMINAL OPENS
October 8, 2024

East Java Multipurpose Terminal (EJMT), International Container Terminal Service, Inc.'s (ICTSI) operation in Lamongan Regency, Indonesia, officially opened on October 2, becoming East Java's newest and most advanced gateway.

 

The construction of EJMT started in March 2023, and within 18 months, the terminal was fully equipped to meet various trade requirements.

 

ICTSI stated that EJMT features a 300-meter quay line, a deep water draft of 13.5 meters (LAT), a 500-meter swinging basin, and state-of-the-art handling equipment for bulk, project, and containerized cargo. EJMT is considered a valuable and adaptable addition to Indonesia's port infrastructure.

 

Notably, the terminal boasts two of the largest post-Panamax mobile harbour cranes in East Java.

"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,"  said Patrick Chan, EJMT chief executive officer, explaining the terminal's significance.

 

"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," he added.

 

David Lim, Eastern Logistics chief executive officer, further highlighted EJMT's impact on the oil and gas sector, noting that 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," he said.

 

Eastern Logistics operates Lamongan Shorebase.

 

As East Java's new gateway, EJMT stands ready to support the economic goals of local and regional industries.

 

ICTSI stated that the terminal's proximity to major industrial centres is expected to reduce supply chain costs and help lower greenhouse gas emissions.

 

Adding further value, the 500-hectare I-Sentra industrial park developed by Jakamitra, situated adjacent to EJMT, offers ample space for new investments, with direct and easy connectivity to the port to further grow East Java’s industrial sector.

 

EJMT is an international gateway designed to support the thriving economies of Lamongan, Tuban and central Java by handling containerized, breakbulk and project cargo.

 

Situated in Lamongan Regency, 60 kilometres west of Surabaya City, the multipurpose facility sits within the 80-hectare Lamongan Shorebase complex, which supports Indonesia's specialized offshore oil and gas industry.

 

EJMT is a joint venture between International Container Terminal Services, Inc. and East Log Holdings, an Indonesian company specializing in offshore oil and gas supply bases.
