Subic Bay International Terminals (SBITC), International Container Terminal Services Inc.’s (ICTSI) operation at the Subic Port is now a part of Ocean Network Express’ (ONE) China-Thailand-Philippines (CTP) service.
The inaugural call of the CTP service to SBITC on March 26, 2024 was executed with the 2,741-TEU boxship Marina One.
The service links the Port of Subic to East Asia, complementing the existing route between the Philippines and Singapore by enhancing convenience for customers. It also provides a direct link from Thailand to Subic via the Laem Chabang port.
With a turnaround time of 28 days, the service rotates through the ports of Laem Chabang (Thailand), Cai Mep (Vietnam), Manila (Philippines), Subic (Philippines), Qingdao (China), Pusan (South Korea), Shanghai (China) and Laem Chabang.
Operated by a consortium of One and Regional Container Lines (RCL), the CTP service uses four vessels ranging from 2,400 to 2,700 TEUs.
SBITC sits strategically within the Subic Bay Freeport Zone in Zambales with access to major intra-Asia shipping routes and serves as the gateway to Northern and Central Luzon.
