Trata-se dos vãos destinados a cargas. "Containers" não cabe aqui - isso seria "contêiners".

bilges
"What is the basement of a ship called?
The BILGE is next to the hull, i.e. nearly next to the sea below the ship. The bilge usually holds a nasty mixture of dirty water, oil, and cigarette ends, etc. The HOLD is where the cargo is kept in a ship, below the sea level. Those two would be the nearest equivalent to a basement in a ship. "

: "porão s. m. Interior do navio (destinado à carga)." [DWidget Dicionário de Língua Portuguesa. Os "bilges" ficam bem no fundo, embaixo do espaço para cargas.
