GAC Spain, a provider of shipping and logistics services in the Iberian Peninsula, has opened a new office at the Port of Huelva.
The opening of GAC Spain’s newest office strategically positions the global ship agent to serve its existing dry and liquid bulk customers, as well as gas carriers at Huelva, with a suite of specialised services; these include ship agency, husbandry, bunker fuels, customs clearance, crew change support and freight services, especially ship spare logistics.
The expansion to Huelva comes after the shipping agent opened an office at the Port of Algeciras in November 2023 to cater to vessels passing through the Strait of Gibraltar and support Spain’s growing green energy sector.
“As development of infrastructure for both green hydrogen and renewable energy continues to gain momentum in the south of Spain, our presence in both Huelva and Algeciras become increasingly vital for supporting our customers,” said Sergio Delatorre, Managing Director of GAC Spain.
“We are committed to supporting our ship owner and ship management customers wherever they go.
“Now, with enhanced capabilities, we are better placed than ever to serve them in true GAC style, leveraging our global reach and local knowledge to support their strategic goals.”
Late last year, Cepsa and C2X announced a joint ambition to develop a green methanol plant in the Port of Huelva in southern Spain.
Last month, the Port Authority of the Bay of Algeciras (APBA) used AllRead’s OCR software to improve traceability at 22 road checkpoints and two railway crossings at the port.
