NEW FERTILIZER PLANT AT NECOCHEA MARGIN / SITED OVER PIER 12

To meet the increased demand of agri-production along the forthcoming years, which will brings with it a growth in fertilizer consumption, M/s Glencore back then, today Viterra, also M/s ACA, M/s Bunge Argentina with some local investors made reality what years ago was just a project of a liquid and solid Fertilizer Plant “PierDoce SA” over pier nbr. 11 and nbr. 12 (Necochea margin) 

Capabilities and characteristics of plant / berth are as follows:

Plant consist in three storage sectors with the administrative and services buildings and the remodeling of the old site 12:

• Storage and dispatch sector of Fertilizers in bulk.

• Storage and dispatch sector Liquid fertilizers.

• Sector with administrative buildings and services.

• Berth 12, (a reality today) consist in 4 new dolphins, 2 mooring towers, 3 connecting rods for belt support and a transfer platform

Storage capacities:

Liquid fertilizer: 15,500 cbt/m 

Solid fertilizer: 76,000 mts

Start of activities:

2^nd December 2020, with the Vessel AMALIA (LOA 179m), the operations of this plant began, like anything new machinery, is required some fine tuning but after the first working day parties involved were satisfied with the level of performance of disch-rate obtained (1500 mt/6 hour shift per gang)
