Cosmatos Group was entrusted with a critical logistics operation by EKME SA, a leading company in the construction of Oil & Gas facilities. Our mission: to handle the port operations and sea transport of vital refinery equipment from Thessaloniki Port to the Helleniq Energy pier in Eleusis, Greece.

• Cargo securing on board to guarantee safe transit
• Chartering a Greek-flagged ferry for the voyage from Thessaloniki to a dedicated berth at Helleniq Energy’s Eleusis site
