Essar Ports’ arm enters into concession agreement with Visakhapatnam Port Trust

16 Dec 2013 Evaluate

Essar Ports' - wholly-owned subsidiary - Essar Vizag Terminals, has entered into a concession agreement with Visakhapatnam Port Trust for development and operations of three iron ore berths at Visakhapatnam Port on BOT basis over a period of 30 years. These three berths (two outer harbor berths and one inner harbor berth) will have a combined capacity of 23 million metric tons per annum (MMTPA).

The project will be developed at a cost of Rs 1,200 crore over a period of three years. Essar Ports will take over the two outer harbor berths soon and the operation and up-gradation of the terminal will happen simultaneously. Vishakhapatnam Port handled 12.3 million tons of iron ore during FY13 and this traffic is readily available for these berths from commencement. 

This project will increase Essar Ports’ total capacity for iron ore export on the east coast to 39MMTPA with four highly mechanized iron ore berths (three in Visakhapatnam Port and one in Paradip Port).

Essar Ports is one of the largest port companies of India, with a current capacity of 104 MMTPA. The capacity is being expanded to 181 MMTPA over the next few years. Essar Ports has three operational terminals at Hazira, Vadinar and Paradip.
