Ben Dinh-Sao Mai port complex gets green light

The Government has approved a project for developing a complex of port and facilities for oil and gas services in Ben Dinh-Sao Mai area in the southern coastal province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau.

Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Sinh Hung on Tuesday agreed in principle to the cooperation between the State-run Petro Vietnam and the National Shipping Lines Corporation (Vinalines) to develop this port complex in Ben Dinh-Sao Mai.

Last month, two companies inked a cooperation agreement to develop Ben Dinh-Sao Mai port into a complex supplying oil and gas services, shipyards, container handling services and a petroleum depot.
