NCSP Group's total cargo turnover increased by 6.9% in January 2012
NCSP Group (LSE: NCSP, MICEX: NMTP) reports consolidated operating results
for January 2012.
NCSP Group's total cargo turnover in the reporting period amounted to 13.8
million tons which represents an increase of 0.9 million tons or 6.9%
versus January 2011.
In January 2012 liquid cargo volumes increased by 0.6 million tons or 5.5%
versus the same period of last year.
Crude oil transshipment by NCSP Group in January 2012 totaled 9.9 million
tons, which represents an increase of 5.2% compared to January 2011
volumes. This growth is attributed to the increase in volumes of Primorsk
Trade Port Ltd by 0.9 million tons or by 16.4%.
Volumes of oil products transshipment across the Group increased by 6.4% or
by 0.1 million tons. The total volume of oil products handled during the
reporting period amounted to 1.7 million tons, of which 0.6 million tons
attributed to diesel transshipment by Primorsk Trade Port Ltd.
In January 2011 the Group handled 0.57 million tons of grain.
Growth in general cargo turnover in January 2012 totaled 0.15 million tons
or 22%. The growth was attributed to an increase of turnover in ferrous
metals by 0.2 million tons (40%) and perishable goods by 29% (1.7 thousand
tons) which offset the decline in timber handling (-27.4 thousand tons),
non-ferrous metals (-22 thousand tons) and other cargoes (-6 thousand
tones).
In January 2012 Group's container traffic in TEU terms decreased by 13.7%
versus January 2011 and totaled 41.7 thousand TEU.
Deputy CEO for marketing and sales of PJSC NCSP Rado Antolovic commented:
'January results were significantly influenced by weather conditions in
Novorossiysk. There were eight storm warnings with total duration of more
than 12 days during the month. The last time that similar weather
conditions were observed was in December 1997.
However, despite the unfavorable weather conditions, NCSP Group management
team was able to achieve growth in cargo turnover of 6.9% versus the same
period of last year'.
