KSK terminal handled 914.5 thousand tons of export grain this season
KSK became the first among deep-water terminals in August
In August 2021, the KSK Grain Terminal, a part of DeloPorts, a stevedore asset of Delo Group, took the first place in grain transshipment among all deep-water terminals of the Azov-Black Sea basin, having shipped 600 thousand tons (in August 2020 - 474 thousand tons), DeloPorts says in its press release.
In general, for two months of the new grain season, the KSK terminal handled 914.5 thousand tons of grain cargo for export, and by this indicator it outstripped all competitors in the region of presence.
Commenting on the achievements, Chief Executive Officer of the terminal, Alexander Trukhanovich, noted: “In July of this year, a new deep-water berth KSK No. 40A was put into operation, the construction of which completed a large investment program for the reconstruction of the terminal. As we can see, investments immediately began to have an effect, the start of the grain season went well, and we hope to end the year with a new record.
In contrast to the beginning of the last season, cars prevail in this one among the transport vehicles. To prevent the formation of a queue, further improvement of the process of their unloading was required. The technological scheme was corrected and due to the improvement of the working method the number of vehicles processed every day surely exceeds the figure of 600 units ”.
