(Kaieteur News) – Norwegian RoRo vessel, the Höegh Pacific on Monday made its maiden voyage to Guyana at the Guyana National Shipping Corporation (GNSC) Wharf, Georgetown with onboard a staggering 800 vehicles from Asia.
According to Kestrel, the ship’s Liner Agent in Guyana, Höegh Pacific represents the largest RoRo call to arrive in Guyana to date.
“Fully laden with vehicles from Asia, and with a staggering 800 of them to be discharged in Georgetown, the Höegh Pacific represents the largest RoRo call to arrive in Guyana to date. What an occasion. She is an amazing example of the Höegh service into the Caribbean and a testament to the incredible economic growth in Guyana,” Kestrel in a statement said.
Kestrel shared that Höegh has gained international recognition not just for quality of service and reliability of shipping, but for their ground breaking innovation of the new Aurora class vessels. “They are the world’s largest and most environmentally friendly Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTCs). Designed to accelerate maritime decarbonisation, the multi-fuel vessels cut carbon emissions per transported car by up to 58% compared to the industry average, with a goal of achieving net-zero operations by 2040,” the Agent explained.
Welcoming the vessel at the wharf where the cargo is being discharged, were Kestrel’s Country Manager, Allan Newark; Vice President of Kestrel Liner Agencies, Steve Keats; and Regional Port Ops Manager for Höegh Raymond Harmer.
