Container Carriers to Expand India-Gulf Feeder

Abu Dhabi Terminals said it has signed a contract with Orient Express Lines, Simatech Shipping and X-Press Feeders to include a call at the Port of Khalifa on their jointly-operated India-Gulf-India (IGI) Service.

The weekly service will begin calling on Khalifa Port Container Terminal at the end of this month.

Khalifa, which is designed to take over all container-handling operations from Mina Zayed Port, started commercial operations in September last year.
