RZhD OJSC plans to acquire equity stakes of cargo terminals at Sea Ports of Novorossisk and Ust-Luga
RZhD OJSC plans to acquire equity stakes of cargo terminals at Sea Ports of Novorossisk and Ust-Luga. This information has been provided by RIA Novosti. According to Vladimir Yakunin, Company’s President, participation in the terminals’ assets will enable the company to ensure through-tariff-rate for the shippers. Ports sometimes raise their service fee without informing the railway, Yakunin reported on Thursday at Baikal Economic Forum. Such a situation results in cargo demurrage and additional problems the shippers have to encounter. The Company’s President does not exclude the possibility to construct own cargo terminals at the ports.
