Vessel Services
Virginia Sets Deep Draft Record with
MSC Chicago
• The Port of Virginia set a mark
that no other port on the US
East Coast can equal: it loaded
a containership so heavy that it
required 49 feet of water to sail.
• Virginia is the last stop on the
service and the 50 foot channel
depth allows the Port to load
heavy and maximize the
economy of scale of a Suez
Class vessel.
May 2013, Portsmouth, Va.
• The Port of Virginia holds the
prior East Coast depth record of
48.5 feet with the MSC Roma.
• Both ships were fully loaded
