Noatum Maritime terminal division Noatum Terminals is set to make a new investment at its facility in Malaga, Spain, to increase the number of harbour and yard container-handling machinery.

The expansion is a result of weeklong negotiations between different stakeholders, including the port authority, stevedores, ancillary services, terminal and several shipping companies.

It is expected to help Noatum Terminal Malaga to reach its target of handling around 200,000 containers annually.

As per the expansion plan, three Over Super Post Panamax cranes, manufactured by Noell, will be installed at the terminal next week.

The cranes have already been shipped on-board the ‘BigRoll Bering’ vessel that left the Port Said in Egypt on 14 June.

Similar to the cranes that left the port a year back, the new cranes will be deployed to handle container ships of up to 16,000 twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) capacity.
