New mooring facility at Mundra Port

Our Bureau

AHMEDABAD: Mundra Port, a private sector port owned by the Adani Group, has commissioned its first single point mooring (SPM) facility to handle liquid cargo.

The SPM facility, installed 9 km inside the sea, offers a draught of 32 metres and will allow tankers of up to 3,50,000 deadweight tonnes to discharge liquid cargo, which will be carried to the shore by a pipeline. The facility is expected to get its first vessel by mid-December and give a major boost to the liquid cargo handled by the port.
