Bilateral cooperation results

The company organized the experience exchange trip to the cooperation partner in Norway, the company NorStone AS, on the use of new innovative green technology and digitized warehouse accounting, taking into account the modernization measures planned by SIA "Jaunmīlgrāvja ostas kompānija" within the framework of the project. As part of the business trip, representatives of SIA "Jaunmīlgrāvja ostas kompānija" visited Stavanger at NorStone AS, mutually sharing their experience in storage of stone crushed stone cargo, warehouse farm, transportation in a warehouse, delivery to the ship's loading area and loading / unloading from the ship. The Norwegian partner was given a presentation of the project of SIA "Jaunmīlgrāvja ostas sabiedrība", as well as within the framework of cooperation, the partner presented its innovative ship project, for which hydrogen is used as fuel, thus discussing other green innovation projects. It was important within the project to have a donor project partner because a significant part of the cargo handled comes directly from and goes to the Scandinavian countries.
