The Port of Tripoli is witnessing increasing momentum in maritime traffic, with major international shipping companies increasingly relying on it as a basic station in the eastern Mediterranean, an indicator that reflects its growing logistical and commercial role at the regional level.
In this context, the Tripoli Port Media Office announced the entry of the giant ship **CMA CGM D’ARTAGNAN** into the container terminal in the port. It is 366 meters long and has a capacity of approximately 15,000 TEUs, becoming the third ship of this size to dock at the port within a few days.
The ship’s arrival comes after the reception of **CMA CGM EUGENIE** and **MONTE CRISTO**, as part of an accelerated operational movement that reflects the increasing dependence of the **CMA CGM Group** on the port of Tripoli within its maritime routes in the Eastern Mediterranean.
The statement explained that this development constitutes a clear indication of the qualitative transformation witnessed by the port, and the growing confidence that the group places in it as a major center for its maritime services in the eastern basin of the Mediterranean.
He pointed out that receiving giant ships has become part of a regular operational movement, which reflects the port’s success in establishing its position as a pivotal port within the global shipping network, benefiting from its advanced operational capabilities, its depths of sea, and the competence of its technical and maritime personnel, in addition to the modern infrastructure it enjoys.
The statement stressed that the pace of successive docking of giant ships reflects the readiness of the container terminal in terms of operational structure, sea depths and handling capabilities, allowing for dealing with large container ships with high efficiency and regularity.
This development strengthens the position of the Port of Tripoli as a regional center for container movement and transshipment, in light of its growing role as a logistical gateway serving the Lebanese market and neighboring markets, while it continues to consolidate its presence on the international navigation map and gradually transform into a fulcrum for global shipping lines in the Eastern Mediterranean.
