In the first time entering Nghe An waters to receive cargo, the PANAMA-registered ORIENTE GLORIA ship received 46 thousand tons of clinker to be transported to Bangladesh. This is also the first clinker shipment exported by sea in Nghe An.

Currently, the two production lines of Song Lam Cement Plant invested by The Vissai Cement Group in Nghe An produce over 13 thousand tons of clinker per day. For a long time, this product has been mainly exported through Nghi Son seaport, Thanh Hoa. By applying the method of transferring clinker by barge from The Vissai Nghi Thiet port (under construction) to large international cargo ships docking at Hon Ngu anchorage, this Group has helped reduce many transportation and unloading costs.

This mode of transport also opens up the route for transporting export goods by large tonnage ships departing from Nghe An waters. It is expected that by the end of June, The Vissai seaport (Nghi Thiet) with the capacity to receive 70,000-ton ships will be put into operation, thus more large tonnage international ships will enter Nghe An waters to transport export goods.
