DP World strengthens Jeddah
DP World has ordered more than 80 Kalmar Ottawa T2 terminal tractors for its South Container Terminal (SCT) in Jeddah Islamic Port. The delivery of the equipment is scheduled for Q2/2022.
Jeddah Islamic Port is the largest port in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and a major trade hub. DP World was awarded a 30-year build-operate-transfer (BOT) concession in 2019 by the Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani), for the management and development of the Jeddah South Container Terminal at the multi-purpose port.
The 81 tractors will incorporate a range of additional safety features including an automatic fire extinguisher system, a reverse warning system and a drive speed limiter system. (cd)
