KYIV. May 17 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Mariupol maritime merchant port (Donetsk region) is interested in mutually beneficial cooperation with all cargo owner companies and continues to develop relations with its strategic partner – Metinvest Group.
According to the Illichivets newspaper, with reference to port director Oleksandr Oliynyk, the agreement on cooperation with Metinvest-Shipping on transshipment of metal produced by Metinvest Group through berth No. 10, which is to be reconstructed, expires in June.
“However, we’ll not terminate our strategic partnership, on the contrary, we will develop it using other berths at the port,” the port director said.
According to him, currently Mariupol metallurgical enterprises provide the basic load of the port’s transshipment facilities with metal for exports. And in May this year four Handysize class vessels deliver iron ore to the port for the needs of metallurgists, which provides the port with an additional cargo flow.
