Algérie Ferries announced, in French, the start of a new freight ferry line between Oran and Alicante.
The State-owned company also started a freight-only ferry service from Algiers to Marseille. This will also be interesting for the many Algerians who live in France but saw their vehicle blocked in Algeria because of the pandemic. The cars will be repatriated.

In 2016, Steen Friis Design A/S joined OSK Group, when OSK-ShipTech A/S bought the company, which has specialised in ship interiors with clear references to the Scandinavian design tradition. One of his latest projects was the W.B. YEATS.
