Servicing of Baby Cape/Cape Size vessels

17 Mar 2020 / Paradip, India

It has been observed that the efficiency of handling Baby Cape / Cape Size vessels in the port is affected due to mechanization of EQ berths and constraints in accommodating such vessels at berths other than CQ 1.

Considering the above, it has been decided that PPT [Paradip Port Trust] will not accept any Cape / Baby Cape size vessels, arriving at PPT after 01.04.2020, til further review or til the new Coal Berth of KICT is commissioned, whichever is earliest.
