Gulftainer and SPA\u2019s partnership goes back five decades, the statement added.<\/p>\n

About Gulftainer and the terminals:<\/strong> Gulftainer was established in 1976 to operate the newly built SCT and later expanded to operate KCT and other port facilities in the UAE, Iraq, KSA, and the US, according to the company\u2019s brochure (pdf)<\/a>.
