This milestone allows TecPlata to handle massive ships up to 366 meters long and 51 meters wide, improving Argentina’s direct access to global maritime markets.
In 2024, TecPlata reinforced its leadership through key developments, including dredging the access channel and becoming Argentina’s first carbon-neutral terminal.
Previously reliant on feeder vessels, Argentina can now export goods directly aboard large ships, boosting regional trade competitiveness.
Management’s view
“With this milestone, TecPlata has restored Argentina’s rightful position as a leader in international trade,” said Juan Pablo Trujillo, TecPlata’s CEO.
“The certification of these docking maneuvers highlights TecPlata’s infrastructure and technical capabilities, being the only dock in Buenos Aires designed to accommodate upcoming improvements in the depth of the Navigable Waterway, as well as projections for the growth of Argentine foreign trade in the coming years,” he added.
