SDV OPE handle stevedoring
and consignement for a World leader shipowner.
Since June the 1st, a World leader shipowner is one of the
client of the Montoir de Bretagne Cogemar office. The recognized
know how of our staff has been major asset for us to win the contract.
On June 7th, we handled the stevedoring of the first feeder
ship.This vessel will operate weekly with 300 movements, with
potentially 14 500 movements a year with 1 300 refrigerated containers.
Another vessels also stopped on july the 9th to unload 140 empty
containers.
* Feeder: A vessel which is part of a cargo network in which
the larger, faster vessels only call at the major ports at both
ends of the area being covered, and the smaller ports are served
by the smaller feeder vessels which transfer the cargo to and
from the major port terminals and thus keep the larger vessels
filled closer to capacity and spare them the expense and loss
of time in loading and unloading in the subsidiary ports.
