Kazakhstan actively develops maritime cargo transportation

Kazakhstan will increase the capacity of its seaports to 30 million tonnes by 2030. To achieve this, the country is developing infrastructure to boost international transportation. A number of projects are currently being implemented in the ports of Aktau, Kuryk, and Bautino, as well as in the Sarzha, Yersai, and Northern terminals. According to the country’s Ministry of Transport, these facilities are creating additional container terminal capacities, upgrading loading equipment, enhancing logistics, as well as simplifying customs and administrative procedures. Dredging works are being carried out in the water area of Kuryk port, with similar plans for the Aktau seaport. Meanwhile, a vessel traffic management system operates in the water area of Bautino port, ensuring maritime navigation safety and reducing the risk of marine accidents. These efforts are part of comprehensive measures taken within the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route development, aimed at meeting the growing demand for cargo transportation along the corridor. Notably, cargo volumes along the Middle Corridor increased by 62 percent in the first seven months, reaching 2.5 million tonnes.
