Da Chan Bay Terminal One (DCB) is situated in the Western Shenzhen Port area of South China.  It is a new international container terminal serving the Pan-Pearl River Delta cargo catchment areas.  DCB covers an area of 112 hectares with five berths along its quayside of 1,830 metres and 600 metres wide.  

 

Construction of the first two berths was completed in late 2007 and commercial operations started since mid-2008.  Construction for the third berth and the last two berths were completed in late 2008 and early 2009 respectively.   Its quay depth, currently at 15.5 metres, will eventually be dredged to 18 metres, allowing DCB to accommodate the world’s largest existing and planned container vessels.

 

Occupying a strategic location that encompasses well-developed land and waterway access to both the eastern and western sides of the Pearl River Delta (PRD), Da Chan Bay Terminal One provides shipping line customers a distinct opportunity to capture new cargo catchment areas as factories migrate inland and to the west of the PRD. 

 

Managed by Modern Terminals Limited, which has around 40 years of solid container terminal operations experience in Hong Kong, one of the world’s busiest seaports, Da Chan Bay Terminal One is equipped with the most advanced IT systems, facilities and equipment available. By adopting Modern Terminals’ expertise and a culture that values mutual trust and respect, accountability, customer-focus and teamwork, DCB is committed to providing its customers with a wide-range of services and operational excellence.
