KSK grain terminal is a container terminal of Novorossiysk Sea Port for grain, ro/ro and general cargo. It was launched in 2006 as a subsidiary of Russian stevedoring holding DeloPorts.[1]

History

The terminal “Kombinat Stroikomplekt” (since April 2014 known as KSK) was launched in 2006.[2] It occupied 7 hectares of same name enterprise: a former “Stroydetal” factory of “Novorossiyskmorstroy”, managed by the Mintransstroy (the USSR Department of Transport Construction). The facility was equipped with sheltered warehouses, parking lots and four III-class berths.[3]

The proprietary (Delo Group) initiated a reconstruction in 2007. The project included the construction of a new terminal elevator of 120,000 capacity, a new rail line and a berth for handling vessels up to 30,000 ton displacement. The required investments of 1.5 billion roubles were credited by Sberbank.[4][5]. The first stage of the project was finished in 2012, expanding the terminal capacity up to 2 mln ton of grain per year, upon completion of the second stage it grew to 3.5 mln ton.[6]

In 2013 the biggest automotive logistics complex in the Russian Black Sea basin was open at the KSK. With a modern custom ro/ro berth and storage facilities for 1,500 cars it is capable to handle 50,000 cars per year.[7] By 2018 KSK expanded covering 12 hectare with 5 berths ranging from 4.5 to 12.4 m depth.[8] In November 2018 the Directorate-General of State Expertise approved the KSK modernisation project for years 2019—2020, increasing the grain storage capacity to 218,000 ton. The project includes construction of new roads and railroads, grain receivers, berths for small size river vessels. Another new deepwater berth with the depth of 16,9 m will allow KSK to serve calls for post-Panamax ocean vessels of 100,000 ton and more, thus expanding the export to Southeast Asian countries. The reconstruction is expected to increase KSK capacity from 4.5 to 6 mln ton, the expenditures are estimated at 3.7 billion roubles.[9][10]

Proprietors and Management

Grain Shipment

Up to 2013 Delo Group was the only owner of KSK grain terminal, having other stevedore Novorossiysk assets merged into the “DeloPorts” holding. In the end of 2013 Delo sold 25% + 1 share of KSK to Cargill (an American food company, one of the KSK key clients), which accounted for 20% of the terminal’s revenue. As a result, Cargill acquired the blocking share holding and one of five seats in the KSK executive board.[5] The general manager of the grain terminal is Alexander Trukhanovich[11].
