MOSCOW. Nov 21 (Interfax) - Delo Group is discussing the launch of a regular sea container line featuring a call at the port of Novorossiysk with the administration of the port of Mormugao (India, state of Goa), the company's founder Sergei Shishkarev told journalists on the sidelines of the Transport of Russia 2025 forum.

The Indian port ceased container handling several years ago, but the equipment for this exists, Shishkarev said.

Another interesting joint Russian-Indian project could be exports of mineral fertilizers in containers, he said.

The group's transportation and logistics division includes the intermodal container operator TransContainer and the multimodal transport operator Ruscon, while its stevedoring division includes DeloPorts and leading container terminal operator Global Ports.
