NCC box terminal resumes operations at Ilyichevsk

Container terminal of Ukrtranscontainer (UTC), part of National Container Company (NCC), on February 16, 2012 resumed work at the port of Ilyichevsk (Illichivsk), NCC news release said.

The joint activity contract between private company Ukrtranscontainer and state-run Sea Commercial Port of Illichivsk.SCPI is effective again following the ruling of Economic Court of the Odessa region.

"The transfer of control over the facility from SCPI to the UTC was carried out without termination of the terminal operation. As of now, all arrangements required to restart the terminal have been fully implemented," the NCC report says.

The stevedore service provider Ukrtranscontainer has signed agreements with all shipping lines making calls at the port of Ilyichevsk to ensure the services on the same contractual terms that they had with SCPI.

Ukrtranscontainer (UTC) is the container terminal at the port of Ilyichevsk, member of the NCC Group. In 2007, the company invested $56 m in the terminal expansion.

UTC is the first stevedoring company in Ukraine, which started providing fixed windows services for container ships, as well as the services for handling of 8,000-teu boxships, operating on direct services from Asia.

National Container Company (NCC) was founded in 2002 and has turned into a leading container terminal operator in Russia and CIS countries, with its network aggregated throughput of over 2.8 million TEUs.
NCC is owned 50/50 by First Quantum Group and FESCO Transport Group.
