Comvex
Export Grain Terminal (CEGT)
with silo storage capacity of Q=200.000 tons, Constanta Port - Romania
• Comvex is developing a new
project: “Comvex Export Grain
Terminal” with a capacity of
200.000 tons that provides the
possibility to receive grain from
trucks, rail cars and barges and
load grain on vessels, with the
main orientation on export of grain
from Romania to the World Market.
• The terminal is intended to
provide maximum flexibility in order
to cooperate with all existing
terminal operators and to work in
concert with all the existing traders
and operators.
❖ 18 silo bins with 10.000 tons
capacity
❖ 8 silo bins with 2.500 tons
capacity.
The site for Comvex Export Grain Terminal is located in the area of Berths N°79, N°80 & N°81 having a sea
depth of 19 m, providing excellent access for loading Panamax vessels, even of a very large bulk carriers (for
which other operators don’t have the berths depth to accommodate) - as Cape size vessels of up to 140,000
dwt. Access of the site by Trucks is also excellent. Connecting roads in very good condition are existing on
site. Access of the site by Railcar wagons will be provided by a new railway inside the Terminal.
