Not fewer than 41 ships laden with petroleum products, food items, and other goods are expected to arrive at Apapa, Tin-Can Island, and Lekki Deep Sea Ports in Lagos.
The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) stated this in its `Shipping Position’ publication, a copy of which was made available to our correspondent on Friday in Lagos.
It disclosed that the vessels are expected from 2 January to January 5.
NPA explained that the expected ships contained condensate, crude oil, aviation fuel, bulk salt, bulk bitumen, wall pallets, general cargo, bulk soya beans, fresh fish, containers, diesel, and petrol.
The document noted that 10 ships and tanker vessels had arrived at the three ports, waiting to berth with diesel, crude oil, aviation fuel, bulk urea, fresh fish, crude palm olein, general cargoes, containers, and bulk sugar.
