The terminal will also be using the upgraded TOS to improve performance and to optimize operating costs.


“Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the N4 upgrade was successfully completed semi-remotely at SOCAR Terminal as a result of the hard work and dedication of both the Navis and SOCAR Terminal teams,” said Arcan Fayatorbay, COO of SOCAR Terminal. “We are glad that Navis was able to help facilitate our upgrade, even in these uncertain times, so we could offer existing and potential customers the most innovative technology and service at our terminal.”
