Fleet of Kalmar terminal tractors to Port of Salalah in Oman

Cargotec's Kalmar business area has been awarded a contract to supply 42
Ottawa 4x2 terminal tractors for the expansion of the Port of Salalah,
located in the southern region of Oman. The equipment will be delivered
to Port of Salalah by the end of this year.

The Port of Salalah is one of the fastest-growing terminals in West
Central Asia. It is situated on the rim of the Indian Ocean, on a
shipping route between Asia and Europe. The port is undertaking a major
expansion project, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2011,
raising the port's capacity to 9 million TEU per year.

Kalmar's Ottawa terminal tractors will service the quayside operation
with Post-Panamax Gantry Cranes. The main features of Kalmar tractors
are a big tractive effort, good manoeuvrability and reliability based on
first class components, long experience and close collaboration with
Kalmar customers.

This model is a reliable and robust container yard tractor and comes
equipped with the cleanest in engine standards with an EU Stage 3A /
Tier III engine, emitting only the minimum in harmful emissions. The
order also includes an initial stock of spare parts.

Graham Boxall, Sales Director for the Middle East Region, Kalmar
Industries, said:

"Kalmar's decision to open a regional office in Dubai this year to
provide closer customer support is bearing good results. We are
physically much closer now to our customers and they certainly
appreciate that."
