Oman's Asyad Group and CMA CGM signed a framework agreement to develop, manage and operate a new multipurpose logistics terminal at the Port of Sohar — a roughly $400m investment at a gateway just outside the Strait of Hormuz.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: New CMA Terminals berths at Sohar open crane-electrification and MoorMaster scope at design stage.

TradeWinds reports CMA CGM's earnings have fallen sharply, with CEO Rodolphe Saade framing the quarter as a test of resilience. The piece points to softer container rates and broader macro pressure on the carrier's results.
Why it matters for P&M: earnings pressure at CMA CGM — a top global customer via CMA Terminals — tends to delay terminal capex and shore-power-ready newbuilds.

CMA CGM Group has committed roughly €700m (US$820m) to renovate and expand two container terminals at the Port of Mombasa, Kenya's main East African gateway.
Why is this an opportunity for P&M: A €700m, multi-terminal expansion programme by a named global carrier (also a CMA Terminals/P&M target account) is exactly the materiality of capex that pulls STS, RTG/RMG and shore-power packages with it — get in early on the spec phase, ideally before the OEM short-list closes, to position cable-reel / busbar / PowerMove and to lay the groundwork for an AFIR-aligned shore-power layer.
