Delo Group Has Invested 15 Billion Rubbles in Development of Its Container Terminal Over the Past 22 Years

Over the past 22 years, Delo Group has invested nearly 15 billion rubles in the development of its NUTEP container terminal in Novorossiysk as part of an extensive investment program.

This year, the terminal celebrates its 30th anniversary, becoming the most modern container terminal in southern Russia.

Founded in 1994, the NUTEP Public Joint Stock Company became a part of Delo Group in 2002. The group initiated active terminal development, including concrete paving and new equipment acquisition. In 2019, to increase NUTEP’s capacity, deep-water berth No. 38 was commissioned, doubling the terminal’s capacity. Today, NUTEP handles container, bulk, and RoRo cargoes in the Port of Novorossiysk, equipped with advanced technology and direct road access via the M-4 “Don” federal highway.

“Our container terminal’s development in the south is an example of achieving more by pursuing goals confidently and boldly. Delo Group has invested nearly 15 billion rubles in NUTEP’s construction and expansion over 22 years, processing 5.5 million TEUs and welcoming 6,300 vessel calls. NUTEP transformed from a small local terminal into a leading container transshipment company in southern Russia. We are committed to continually developing our assets to provide the country with reliable foreign trade logistics”, said Sergey Shishkarev, Chairman of the Board of Directors and founder of Delo Group.

In 2023, the terminal handled a record 602,500 TEUs, 3.4% more than in 2022, with a monthly record set in March 2023 at 70,100 TEUs, 6% above the previous achievement in January 2023. In 2022, NUTEP set its own record by simultaneously processing five container ships at its berths. The largest vessel processed in its history was a container ship 299.9 meters long with a capacity of 7,114 TEUs.

Delo Group continues to develop the terminal, with plans to extend the berth and increase capacities being strategic steps to meet current demand and create future reserves. < Back to list
