Apr 11, 2018 (newstodate): Work on the project for a new dedicated seafood terminal at Oslo Airport is progressing, albeit the process is running a bit behind the original schedule.
-We expect to be able to announce the future operator of the new seafood terminal soon. We had hoped to be in place before Easter, but a bit more time is needed, says Martin Langaas, Avinor Director Traffic Development & Cargo, speaking at today's Schenker Seafood Logistics seminar at Oslo.
-What is certain is that construction works will start from early in 2019, and the terminal will be commissioned by Q4, 2020.
-The 10,016 sq m terminal will have the capacity of handling two freighters or eight wide-body passenger aircraft per hour, corresponding to some 200 tonnes per hour. The facility will accommodate the storage of 500 ULDs and have 27 trucking docks.
-The main driver behind the coming new seafood terminal will be to drastically reduce the total transit time contributing to enhanced handling quality and a longer shelf-life of the seafood commodities, says Mr Langaas.
Avinor has contracted the Norwegian financial services provider Pareto Securities as consultant to the project, and has held a series of talks together with Avinor Pareto with potential investors.
