PORTS & SHIPPING
Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) on Friday launched its penultimate tug as part of its R1.4-billion, nine-tug construction contract. The uMkhomazi tug, which means “place of cow whales” in Zulu, will serve at the Port of Durban. The moniker was given by the Zulus in reference to large numbers of whales once using the estuary as a nursery and the name follows the port’s tradition of naming its marine fleet after local rivers.
