Extensive Western sanctions against Russia and restrictions on Russian transit in Eastern Europe have increased attention to the international North-South transport corridor
Extensive Western sanctions against Russia and restrictions on Russian transit in Eastern Europe have increased attention to the international North-South transport corridor and initiated the revival of maritime trade between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Russia on the Caspian Sea.
A major step in this direction was taken in 2022, when the northern Iranian port of Nowshahr received a Russian cargo vessel for the first time in 21 years (the last time a large Russian ship called at this port was in 2001).
Malamut Trans LLC keeps a finger on the pulse of the times and closely monitors emerging prospects in transport logistics to offer its clients coherent and competent services.
At the end of October 2024, our company completed its first international project through PJSC Astrakhan Port. Traditionally, the cargo transported through this port consists mainly of bulk commodities such as grain, mineral bulk raw materials (MBR), and sawn timber.
Malamut Trans was tasked by Astrakhan with a more complex and large-scale challenge: organizing the shipment of different types of cargo on a single vessel. The first batch of emission control equipment for the oil and gas industry was shipped from Astrakhan Port to Nowshahr.
Relatively low handling charges and sea freight rates, along with short transit times, represent just a few of the advantages that enabled the shipment to be carried out as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible for our customer.
Currently, deliveries are being made by rail and road transport, while accumulation of the second batch of pipe products and equipment is underway for shipment to Bandar Anzali, Iran.
