Ports declare Force Majeure

25 Mar 2020 / India

The following Indian ports have all declared ‘Force Majeure’ to ensure that unforeseen delays in the delivery of cargoes and other port-related services do not affect their commercial contracts with port users:

EAST COAST PORTS:
Dhamra, Karaikal, Gopalpur, Gangavaram, Krishnapatnam.

WEST COAST PORTS:
Adani-Mundra, Hazira, Angre, all 44 ports under Gujarat Maritime Board.

So far, 12 major Government ports in India have not invoked Force Majeure though the Ministry of Shipping has already given them what is required to do so if needed. These ports are continuing to work with limited available resources at present.
