Over the first 9 months of 2019, Multipurpose Reloading Complex LLC (MRC) operating in the port of Ust-Luga (Leningrad Region) increased its throughput by 3%, year-on-year, to 4.1 million tonnes.

In 2019, the company has put into operation a Vityaz portal crane, a KALMAR DCE160-12 forklift truck and a MANTSINEN 120R material handler.

Transshipment of coal, which makes the bulk of the company’s throughput, exceeded 4 million tonnes (+4%, year-on-year) while handling of petcoke totaled 60,000 tonnes. 

Between January and September, the company handled 114 cargo vessels and 55,866 open railcars. Average daily handling of railcars totaled 205 units with the maximum result as high as 313 units.
