The cargo transportation is being carried out by a ADY Express LLC, a subsidiary of Azerbaijan Railways, to the Georgian port of Poti.

The coke, loaded into semi-wagons at Keshla station, is transported to the port of Porti, where it will be loaded on ships and delivered to the destination country by sea.

Initially, it is envisaged to transport 27,000 tons of coke in November-December 2020. Some 15,742 tons of cargo have already been transported by 245 wagons.

The supply of wagons is provided by Azerbaijan Railways CJSC and ADY Express LLC.

It is also planned to transport this type of cargo from Azerbaijan to China.
