The Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi Sea Port has signed a memorandum of cooperation with APM Terminals Poti, a subsidiary of Maersk.
CEO of the port, Oksana Kiktenko, announced this.
“This is the first memorandum of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi port on cooperation within the framework of developing the international transport corridor — the TITR, or Middle Corridor (Trans-Caspian International Transport Route),” Kiktenko emphasized.
She noted that APM Terminals Poti owns Georgia’s largest port — the Port of Poti.
“The two private seaports will be connected by a new ferry route and a road-rail ferry terminal, which is currently being designed by the new owner of the Ukrainian port in accordance with the cargo handling requirements of the Middle Corridor,” she added.
The aim of the cooperation is to attract cargo flows via the Middle Corridor, which will pass through Ukraine along a new railway route — the Bessarabia Route (Ukraine – Moldova – Romania) — and to establish and develop mutually beneficial collaboration between the two ports, Kiktenko explained.
