NUTEP steps up

NUTEP, one of the leading container terminal operators in the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, is to expand the capacity of its terminal there to accommodate on-going double-digit growth in the number of containers it is handling.

NUTEP, which is 100% owned by the Delo-Group, currently has three berths which provide a total length of 754m and serve ro-ro vessels as well as container ships. This quay is currently served by three ship to shore cranes with a fourth crane on order. This new Liebherr post-Panamax crane should be commissioned in September and will take the terminal’s handling capacity to over 400,000 TEU per annum.
