Disinvestment of APM Terminals in Turkey, with the cession of the participation in the Petlim
The Dutch terminalista society will continue to manage the container Turkish terminal
October 16, 2018
The voices of a possible escape from the Turkish harbour market of terminalista society APM Terminals of shipowning group Danish A.P. Møller-Mærsk, to which the Turkish daily paper "Dünya" has made reference Sunday announcing the possible renunciation of the Dutch company to an own presence in Turkey, voices that they are thrown again by the great part of the national newspapers, partially are confirmed today by the same APM Terminals that has announced the attainment of an agreement in order to yield own participation in the society Petlim Limancilik Ticaret that manages the Petlim Container Terminal of the port of Petkim (Izmir), engagement to the development of the new Turkish port that the Dutch company had been assumed at the beginning of 2013 and for the duration 28-year-old(on 22 February 2013).
APM Terminals has specified that the sale, that will happen in the next few months, will happen in confronts of the partner SOCAR Turkey, branch of Turkish group SOCAR (Is been Oil Company of the Azerbaijan Republic), that it will have the entire property of the Petlim.
The voices seem to find but single partial confirmation because APM Terminals has specified that if the entire capital of the Petlim will be of property of the SOCAR, the management of the society will continue to be under responsibility of the same APM Terminals.
