St. Petersburg-based Petrolesport container terminal has for the first time received the call of the “SFT Turkey” container vessel. The 260 m LOA 32 m beam ship has a capacity of 4,253 TEU, which is quite a lot by St. Petersburg standards.
The vessel delivered to St. Petersburg cargo from China and loaded goods manufactured by Russian companies, Global Ports said in its social media account.
The “SFT Turkey” is deployed in the service launched this year by the Chinese lines OVP and Safetrans between St. Petersburg and ports in China.
St. Petersburg is served both directly and with transshipment via Turkish ports.
