Bulk Petroleum Coke to Hartlepool Dock
The PD Ports, Logistics and Shipping Groups PD Teesport Hartlepool Dock facility has been chosen by Carbon International Ltd to provide cargo handling and storage services for up to 40,000 tonnes of bulk petroleum coke imported annually.
The 86m long and 24.4m wide Arcos was built by the Viktor Lenac in Rejeka, Croatia, reportedly for about £20m and was going into service in the Caribbean in March for Norddeutsche Seekabelwerke (NSW), part of Corning Cable Systems in the U.S.
The operation involves discharging bulk material from ships, each carrying up to 10,000 tonnes, and transferring it to dockside stores and then onward to Carbon Intenational’s own facility at Brancepeth in County Durham.
