In 2016 “Multipurpose Reloading Complex” LLC (MRC) in the port of Ust-Luga (Leningrad region) invested 39.1 million RUR to upgrade its cargo handling facilities. Mainly, the funds were allocated for purchase of new equipment and for renovation of the port infrastructure.
Within the mentioned period MRC put into operation 225 meters of conveyor line to transport the bulk cargoes from the yard to the berths. Besides, the company bought two grab buckets GH 16-9,5 with the capacity of 9.5m3 each. New machinery allowed for higher intensity of railcar operations at the terminal and for growth of the cargo turnover up to 4.5 million in 2016.
At the end of 2016 MRC made an advance payment for the purchase of two LIEBHERR cranes with 2.5m3 grab each to optimize the technological process and to enhance the cargo handling operations. The commissioning of the cranes is planned for the first half of this year.
