The company has removed the original rail lines, constructed a new yard at the rear of the terminal and increased overall block-train capacity at the terminal to 30 trains of about 112 TEU each per month.
The company is also going to invest in the construction of an extra container berth which will be able to handle ships of up to 6,000 TEU and bring the total capacity at NUTEP to 600,000 TEU by early 2016.
NUTEP currently has three berths that provide a total length of 754m and serve ro-ro vessels as well as container ships. Novorossiysk is the largest container port in the Black Sea and the principal gateway to Southern Russia.
