Ocean Express begins developing new grain storage facility at Dekheila Port

Maritime company Ocean Express has begun developing a new grain storage facility at the Dekheila Port that can carry up to 130k tonnes at a time, Al Borsa reports. The facility, which is being developed in partnership with Alpha Industries and Construction, is due to begin operations in six months’ time, a company official tells the newspaper. The Dekheila Port is where authorities had confiscated some 18k tonnes of Russian wheat deemed unfit for human consumption due to the large number of insects found inside in the storage site.
