Final personnel transfers from Marseilles Fos

June saw 41 crane drivers and maintenance staff, four gantries and a mobile crane assigned to newly-formed Intramar STS. Stevedore Intramar has a 66% stake in the company, with the port authority holding 34%.

Cargo handling at the port is now entirely carried out by private or part-private companies. A month earlier, a total of 160 Fos-based personnel were transferred to Eurofos and Seayard at the container terminal and to Carfos at the ore and grain terminals. Six post-Panamax container gantries were also handed over together with cranes and conveyor plant for the dry bulk operations.
