Bahri, the National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia, has unveiled a new container service which links the Port of Tilbury, UK to the Middle East, providing a new option for transporting heavy roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) cargo, as well as project and containerised cargoes between UK, Northern Europe and the Gulf region, according to Saudi Gazette.

Trevor Kay, Bahri Service Line Manager at DKT Allseas, said: “Thanks to the extreme flexibility of these vessels and the service, we have the benefit of not being limited to any single target sector of the market.
“However, a major focus is big project cargoes, which can be handled by the on-board cranes and via RoRo. The unique factor is that shippers now have the benefit of a direct call into the UK, instead of having to tranship to Antwerp.”
