Grain ship loading at Port Adelaide in Australia. Prior to Patrick starting its operations at the port, Viterra was the only provider of bulk wheat port terminal services in South Australia.
Patrick, which recently entered into an agreement with Cargill to stevedore grain at the berth, expects to load 225,000 tonnes of grain per year for Cargill, which equates to 8-10 ships a year.
The vessels will be loaded using Patrick labor, Cargill’s hopper and Patrick’s ship loader.
