The group is currently planning the layout of its container ships in the basins of Russia
As of September 2022, the fleet of Delo Group fleet numbers about 25 ships. The company started chartering ships in April 2022 after international operators stopped calling at Russian ports, IAA PortNews correspondent cites Dmitry Pankov, General Director of Delo Management Company, as telling journalists at the Eastern Economic Forum.
“About 25 ships, including those of Sakhalin Shipping Company, are under operation of Delo Group today. We started chartering ships in April, after international operators left Russia. It was a situation with cargo available but no fleet to carry it. We chartered ships of the Chinese and Turkish companies,” he said.
