Water has left the “Nibulon” terminal in Dnipropetrovsk Region
Water receded from the pier of the river transshipment terminal of the Zelenodol branch of “Nibulon”.
As a result of the Russians undermining the Kakhovska dam, water left the berth of the Zelenodol terminal “Nibulon”. Currently, it is impossible to fill the reservoir without restoring the dam. This is written by Elevatorist with reference to the “Newspaper” publication.
Before the destruction of the hydroelectric power plant, the Dnipro section, where the terminal is located, was up to 5 meters deep. Under the pier itself, the water was a little less – about 4.5 meters. After the explosion, the water level dropped by 15 cm every hour. In 3 days, all the water went away, said the acting director. Oleksiy Mudrak, director of the Zelenodol branch of “Nibulon”.
Before the start of the full-scale war, 5-6 barges were loaded at the terminal every month. Thus, during the season, about 200,000 tons of grain passed through the Zelenodol terminal.
Reference: “Zelenodolska” branch is a transshipment grain terminal in the village of Maryanske in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The branch was opened in June 2020, the amount of investment in the project amounted to more than 22 million dollars. The simultaneous grain storage capacity of the terminal is 75.2 thousand tons. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine, the branch has been shelled several times.
