PANAMA CITY, Panama, June 14, 2005 –\u00a0<\/strong>The trend of larger ships using the Panama Canal is increasing, as evidenced by the record set recently in May 2005 of 120 transits made by vessels 900 feet or more in length overall. Of these 120 transits, 117 were made by full container vessels and three were made by cruise ships. The record breaks the previous mark achieved in January 2005 of 114 transits of these types of vessels. Canal Waters Time (CWT), the average time it takes a vessel to transit the Canal, including waiting time for passage, did not increase, despite the volume of transits and larger vessels handled.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased that we are able to meet demand at the Canal, while \u2013 at the same time \u2013 break records and set new standards,\u201d said Jorge Quijano, Maritime Operations Director. \u201cThis record is no small feat for the Panama Canal Authority (ACP). To move this amount of large ships through the Canal and maintain a good CWT is remarkable \u2013 our world-class workforce makes full use of our investments in new equipment, technology and improvements to our infrastructure to make things happen here at the waterway.\u201d
\nContainer trade through the Panama Canal continues to grow. Panama Canal\/Universal Measurement System (PC\/UMS) tonnage has increased 5.2 percent over last year, for the period of October through May. In addition, the use of Panamax size vessels has increased 6.4 percent \u2013 or 230 more Panamax vessel transits \u2013 over the same period. More than 90 percent of these vessels book their transits through the Canal\u2019s reservation system, which helps achieve a transit with a CWT of less than 17 hours on the intended day of transit (without a reservation, CWT averages approximately 35.6 hours).<\/p>\n

About the Panama Canal Authority (ACP)<\/strong>
\nThe ACP is the autonomous agency of the Government of Panama in charge of managing, operating and maintaining the Panama Canal. The operation of the ACP is based on its organic law and the regulations approved by its Board of Directors. For more information, please refer to the ACP\u2019s website: http:\/\/www.pancanal.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Authority\u2019s responsibility to the Panamanian people is paramount. The Canal belongs to the people and benefits from the Canal should accrue to as many Panamanians as possible. The Authority will plan its future so that it will continually contribute to the economic development and welfare of the citizens of Panama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
