Pakistan's first deep-water terminal to be ready in April

[RealNapster]

that can carry up to 180,000 containers.

This is what @monitor added to the article.

Big cargo carriers have much larger displacements

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_ship

180,000 is right

18000 ton vessels are small like boats. 40,000 - 60,000 is mid tier bulk/container carriers. normally oil tankers are bigger than 100,000 tons.

this is what you said.

BUT

It will accommodate mother vessels that can each carry upto 18,000 containers, is what written in the 2nd line of that snapshot he posted.

Hope now you know the difference. the OP is quoting that it can now handle ships of 180,000 containers capacity. but in reality , it can handle ships of 18,000 container's ships now. it can also be seen in the snapshot which OP posted , read the 2nd paragraph in first column.

or may be i am confused. @DESERT FIGHTER ?
