HPC to carry out study on Kazakhstan’s terminal upgrade

ALG Company, headquartered in Almaty, Kazakhstan has selected HPC Hamburg Port Consulting, an intermodal terminal specialist, to review their current terminal concept and conduct a feasibility study for optimisation and development.

The ALG Terminal in Almaty currently plays an important role in handling a diverse range of cargo, including 20 and 40-foot containers, cars, breakbulk, and large-size equipment. It also offers storage services in temporary storage warehouses and customs warehouses within a free zone.

Indira Tanirbergenova, CEO of ALG Company, commented, “The changes in trade routes across the Middle Corridor connecting Asia with Europe overland, have led to increased demand for efficient rail trade infrastructure in Kazakhstan.”

Additionally, due to the ongoing situation in Ukraine, the middle corridor is set to benefit significantly from increased volumes passing through Kazakhstan – which formerly were transported through Russia, according to ALG.

HPC has been tasked with developing a comprehensive planning framework that includes a concept revision, which entails operational data analysis, market analysis, and volume forecasting.

Furthermore, it will involve a review of the current terminal concept, dwell times, train schedules, gate processes, loading and unloading processes, and storage capacities.

Therefore, following this analysis, HPC has developed an operational concept that presents various development options and operational refinements to meet ALG Company’s evolving needs.

Frank Busse, Partner and VP Europe at HPC, emphasises the significance of local context in their planning approach, stating, “understanding the local framework conditions and existing planning is essential to develop viable concepts.”
