1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position
among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in
last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of
port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country.
Presently, Kandla Port is handling its cargo at its 12 nos. Jetties. These jetties collectively
have a capacity of 27.37 MMTPA. However, there are certain factors which are not allowing
the operations to be efficient enough to achieve the throughput equal to the said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo
sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the
handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher time
for maintenance.
Owing to the above stated reasons and considering the ideal berth occupancy, ideally
utilizable capacity of the existing jetties is relatively less at 9.75 MMTPA. Presently, at KPT,
waiting for berthing at Oil Jetties is being observed.
Total of 87.01 MMTPA of cargo was handled at Kandla Port in the year 2013-14. In order to
ease pressure / avoid the waiting of the vessels for the existing oil terminals and to cater
additional cargo, KPT has taken measures to develop a cargo handling facility at Veera. The
proposed facility will be able to cater vessels of higher DWT. Commissioning of the proposed
facility shall augment the cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 6.29 MMTPA.
Traffic Forecast
Traffic forecast for the proposal Veera Jetty with products to be handled 6.29 MMTPA (Dry Cargo)

2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION
i. Identification of project and project proponent.
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country.
Especially northern India is heavily dependent on Kandla Port Trust for its trade requirements due to its peculiar land locked location compared to many other regions of India which are comparatively quite nearer to the sea shore. Some states of central India like Madhya Pradesh are also dependent for its specific trade requirement on Kandla Port Trust.
Hence, considering the vast hinterland that is dependent on KPT for seaborne trade and currently prevailing traffic congestion at existing facilities of KPT, capacity additions are of utmost importance at KPT for serving the economy of the influence region and in turn, the economy of the whole country in the best possible manner. Presently, Kandla Port is handling its 12 cargo berths under the direct operation at port,
These jetties collectively have a capacity of 59.01 MMTPA. However, there are certain
factors which are not allowing the operations to be efficient enough to achieve the
throughput equal to the said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher time for maintenance.
1. The main components of the Veera jetty which shall be constructed by the BOT
operator will be: a). A jetty of length 160 m x 60 m.
2. The total estimated cost of the projects will be Rs.16000lakh.
3. Capital and Maintenance dredging in front of the jetty is also proposed to be
undertaken by the BOT operator.

Waves
Kandla Creek is protected from wave disturbances by a number of shoals at its outfall
into the gulf. This provides the setting for a basin with absolute tranquility. The creek
provides calm waters round the year for easy movement of shipping. Thus, Kandla has
become an all-weather Port of repute. The high amplitude tides coupled with a large
storage area has resulted in high flushing velocities inside. This has helped in cleansing
of the navigational channels, thus providing minimum siltation. Outside in the gulf, the
complex flow phenomenon has given rise to a number of shoals, which are dynamic in
nature. The Port of Kandla is approached through the channel starting from the Outer
Tuna Buoy. The shallow depths at the turning point of the channel are over passed
during high tides by vessels approaching the harbour. Ship movements are normally
confined to the high tides. Siltation in the channel is confined to a reach of hardly 3 km
only. The Port region is free from any significant wave disturbances.
Silt and Salinity
Silt charge and salinity observations were carried out during dry and monsoon months
in April and September 1983 at locations east and west of Kandla Creek and at two
stations in the Gulf of Kutch. The waters of the Creek are heavily silt charged, the range
being 1 to 3 ppt. The Creek waters have a salinity ranging from 23 to 25 ppt.
Temperature and Humidity
The climate of Kandla Port is generally tropical and dry. The air temperature varies from
less than 100 C in winter to about 440 C in summer. The mean, maximum and minimum
temperature observed in the different months at Kandla is presented in the table below:

Rainfall
Rainfall in Kandla is very low. Between January and April, there is normally no rainfall.
Rainfall generally remains confined between June end and mid September. During the
remaining months, the rainfall is scanty. The annual average rainfall is around 200mm
only.
Wind Conditions
From long term observation of wind velocities and directions, following inferences can
be made:
January The predominant direction is between NNE and NNW with speed range normally
between 12 and 19 Km/hr. which may exceed for about 10 % of the time.
February
The direction changes from NNE and SSW, but predominantly between WSW and
SSW. The wind speed from SSW varies between 12 and 39 km/ hr. for 15 % of the
time and for rest of the time it generally varies between 12 and 19 Km/ hr.
March The direction lies between NNW and SSW, but predominantly between WSW and
SSW. The wind speed from SSW varies between 12 and 39 km/ hr. for 15 % of the
time and for rest of the time it generally varies between 12 and 19 Km/ hr.
April to
June
The direction for wind is between WSW and SSW. The wind speed reaches a
maximum of 39 km/ hr. except in July, when the speed may exceed the range.
October The direction of wind changes from SSW to NNW. Wind speed ranges between 12
and 19 km/ hr. but the limit may exceed for 10 % of the time.

Storms and Cyclones
Kandla port is not generally affected by cyclonic storms. During June 1998, a severe
cyclonic storm, which passed over Kandla Port with a wind speed of 150 km/hr.,
resulting in high tidal waves of 10.5 m with strong current, caused extensive damages to
the Port installations, crafts and human lives.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position
among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in
last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of
port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country.
Presently, Kandla Port is handling its cargo at its 12 nos. of Jetties. These jetties collectively
have a capacity of 27.37 MMTPA. However, there are certain factors which are not allowing
the operations to be efficient enough to achieve the throughput equal to the said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo
sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the
handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher time
for maintenance.
Owing to the above stated reasons and considering the ideal berth occupancy, ideally
utilizable capacity of the existing jetties is relatively less at 9.75 MMTPA. Presently, at KPT,
waiting for berthing at Jetties is being observed.
Total of 87.01 MMTPA of cargo was handled at Kandla Port in the year 2013-14. In order to
ease pressure / avoid the waiting of the vessels for the existing terminals and to cater
additional cargo, KPT has taken measures to develop a cargo handling facility at Jafarwadi.
The proposed facility will be able to cater vessels of higher DWT. Commissioning of the
proposed facility shall augment the cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 1.84 MMTPA.
Traffic Forecast
Traffic forecast for proposal Jafarwadi Jetty is 3.00 MMTPA
Project Viability
Details of cost of the Project yet to be worked out hence, FIRR will be worked out later.

2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION
i. Identification of project and project proponent.
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country.
Especially northern India is heavily dependent on Kandla Port Trust for its trade requirements due to its peculiar land locked location compared to many other regions of India which are comparatively quite nearer to the sea shore. Some states of central India like Madhya Pradesh are also dependent for its specific trade requirement on Kandla Port Trust.
Hence, considering the vast hinterland that is dependent on KPT for seaborne trade and currently prevailing traffic congestion at existing facilities of KPT, capacity additions are of utmost importance at KPT for serving the economy of the influence region and in turn, the economy of the whole country in the best possible manner. Presently, Kandla Port is handling its 12 dry cargo. These jetties collectively have a capacity
of 59.01 MMTPA. However, there are certain factors which are not allowing the operations
to be efficient enough to achieve the throughput equal to the said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher time for maintenance.
1. The main components of the Jafarwadi jetty which shall be constructed by the BOT
operator will be: a). A jetty of length 180 m x 20 m.
2. The total estimated cost of the projects will be Rs.10500lakh.
3. Capital and Maintenance dredging in front of the jetty is also proposed to be
undertaken by the BOT operator.
ii. Brief description of nature of the project
The cargo handling capacity of Jafarwadi by 3.00Million MTs
The proposed facility shall be used for handling cargo.

Total Back up area 20Ha
Capital Cost Rs. 10500lakhs.
Project time Schedule 18 months from the Date of Award of Concession
iii. Need of the project and its importance to the country and or region.
Kandla Port is having capacity of 28.76 MMTPA for handling non-containerized dry
cargo. In the last three years Kandla Port has handled non containerized cargo, 26.01
MMTPA in the year 2011-12; 31.76 MMTPA in the year 2012-13; and 27.37 MMTPA in
the year 2013-14. From the above figure it is clear that these facilities are being utilized
at 90%. As per international standard berth occupancy should not be utilized more than
70% then only designed period of life can be achieved.
Further it is also to state that Kandla Port has already commissioned four floating cranes
at OTB for lighterage operations. Recently Kandla Port handled panamax/ post panamax
vessels at OTB with floating cranes. This operation needs Barge Jetty so that loading and
unloading can also be achieved. At present Kandla Port is having Barge facilities at
Bunder Basin Kandla and at Tuna.
Four floating cranes are commissioned and LOS for three more floating cranes has been
issued. It is very much essential for Kandla Port to utilize this floating crane facility by
creating more number of Barge facilities at Jafarwadi at appropriate locations where it is
technically and financially feasible
Existing Cargo Handling Capacity
No nearby existing cargo handling capacity at Jafarwadi.
Trends in the past cargo traffic at Kandla
Cargo traffic rose by 5.04 per cent to 433.86 million tonnes (MT) at 12 major ports during April-December 2014 as compared to the same period of previous year.
These Centre-run ports had handled 413.06 MT of cargo during April-December 2013.
According to the latest data, Kandla Port handled the maximum 70.85 MT of cargo during the period, which was up 7.22 per cent against 66.08 MT during April-December 2013.
Demand and Supply with future projections
The demand and Supply gap is increasing day by day and this Jetty with capacity of 3.00
MMTPA will help to fill up this gap.

Waves
Kandla Creek is protected from wave disturbances by a number of shoals at its outfall
into the gulf. This provides the setting for a basin with absolute tranquility. The creek
provides calm waters round the year for easy movement of shipping. Thus, Kandla has
become an all-weather Port of repute. The high amplitude tides coupled with a large
storage area has resulted in high flushing velocities inside. This has helped in cleansing
of the navigational channels, thus providing minimum siltation. Outside in the gulf, the
complex flow phenomenon has given rise to a number of shoals, which are dynamic in
nature. The Port of Kandla is approached through the channel starting from the Outer
Tuna Buoy. The shallow depths at the turning point of the channel are over passed
during high tides by vessels approaching the harbour. Ship movements are normally
confined to the high tides. Siltation in the channel is confined to a reach of hardly 3 km
only. The Port region is free from any significant wave disturbances.
Silt and Salinity
Silt charge and salinity observations were carried out during dry and monsoon months
in April and September 1983 at locations east and west of Kandla Creek and at two
stations in the Gulf of Kutch. The waters of the Creek are heavily silt charged, the range
being 1 to 3 ppt. The Creek waters have a salinity ranging from 23 to 25 ppt.
Temperature and Humidity
The climate of Kandla Port is generally tropical and dry. The air temperature varies from
less than 100 C in winter to about 440 C in summer. The mean, maximum and minimum

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position
among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in
last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of
port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country. Presently, Kandla Port is handling
its liquid cargo at its 6 nos. Oil Jetties. These jetties collectively have a capacity of 13.00
MMTPA. However, there are certain factors which are not allowing the operations to be
efficient enough to achieve the throughput equal to the said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo
sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the
handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing oil jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher
time for maintenance.
Recently on-going strengthening of Oil Jetty No. 1 and 2 has also affected the
availability of the utilizable capacity to some extent.
Owing to the above stated reasons and considering the ideal berth occupancy, ideally
utilizable capacity of the existing jetties is relatively less at 9.75 MMTPA. Presently, at KPT,
waiting for berthing at Oil Jetties is being observed.
Total of 8.51 MMTPA of liquid cargo was handled at Kandla Port in the year 2013-14. In
order to ease pressure / avoid the waiting of the vessels for the existing oil terminals and to
cater additional liquid cargo, KPT has taken measures to develop a liquid cargo handling
facility next to the existing oil jetty no. 6 at Old Kandla. The proposed facility will be able to
cater vessels of higher DWT. Commissioning of the proposed facility shall augment the
liquid cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 1.84 MMTPA.
The proposed facility shall be used for handling all kinds of liquid cargo i.e. POL, vegetable
oils/edible oils, others etc. which are permitted. However, Concessionaire shall handle and
store the chemicals and liquids as per the applicable CRZ notifications.
Traffic Forecast
Projected traffic has been allocated for the ideally utilizable capacity of existing Oil Jetties
and expected utilization of upcoming new Oil jetty and Ship Bunkering Terminal on BOT.

Note: *Ideally utilizable capacity for Liquid Cargo excluding POL has been considered as Total Ideally
Utilizable Capacity of Oil Jetties x Share of Liquid Cargo other than POL = 9.75 MMTPA * 72.44% i.e. share
of liquid cargo at Kandla excluding POL for past five years.
As it can be seen from the above traffic analysis and projections, liquid cargo traffic has been
projected at 6% CAGR. From the projected traffic, allocation to existing oil jetties has been
envisaged to be equal to ideally utilizable capacity of 7.06 MMTPA. Further, the utilization
expected in case of the Project of Oil Jetty and Ship Bunkering Terminal on BOT Basis has been
envisaged as per the Feasibility Report of that Project for Liquid Cargo excluding POL. Thus,
total allocation has been subtracted from projected traffic. Hence, the same has been
considered as the gap of traffic to be bridged by the proposed Oil Jetty No. 7. Though the said
gap / projection reaches around 1.79 MMTPA by FY 2023 which is almost equivalent to
proposed capacity, it is understood that the Project may take some time to ramp up the
utilization. Hence, the following utilization levels have been considered for revenue calculations
for the financial viability assessment.

2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION
i. Identification of project and project proponent.
Kandla Port is one of the busiest Ports of India. Kandla Port has been achieving first position among all the Major Ports of India in the terms of cargo handling for the most of the years in last decade. Thus, Kandla Port Trust has been contributing the most for the development of port capacity and handling seaborne trade of the country.
Especially northern India is heavily dependent on Kandla Port Trust for its trade requirements due to its peculiar land locked location compared to many other regions of India which are comparatively quite nearer to the sea shore. Some states of central India like Madhya Pradesh are also dependent for its specific trade requirement on Kandla Port Trust.
Hence, considering the vast hinterland that is dependent on KPT for seaborne trade and currently prevailing traffic congestion at existing facilities of KPT, capacity additions are of utmost importance at KPT for serving the economy of the influence region and in turn, the economy of the whole country in the best possible manner. India is a heavily oil deficit country which is largely fed by imports at Major Ports. Among major ports, Kandla is the leader due to its sustained growth of traffic in various commodities including liquid cargo.
Presently, Kandla Port is handling its liquid cargo at its 6 nos. Oil Jetties. These jetties
collectively have a capacity of 13.00 MMTPA. However, there are certain factors which are
not allowing the operations to be efficient enough to achieve the throughput equal to the
said capacity.
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing oil jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher time for maintenance.
Recently on-going strengthening of Oil Jetty No. 1 and 2 has also affected the availability of the utilizable capacity to some extent.
Owing to the above stated reasons and considering the ideal berth occupancy, ideally
utilizable capacity of the existing jetties is relatively less at 9.75 MMTPA. Presently, at KPT,
waiting for berthing at Oil Jetties is being observed.
Total of 8.51 MMTPA of liquid cargo was handled at Kandla Port in the year 2013-14. In
order to ease pressure / avoid the waiting of the vessels for the existing oil terminals and to
cater additional liquid cargo, KPT has taken measures to develop a liquid cargo handling
facility next to the existing oil jetty no. 6 at Old Kandla. The proposed facility will be able to
cater vessels of higher DWT. Commissioning of the proposed facility shall augment the
liquid cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 1.84 MMTPA.
PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT-Setting up of Oil Jetty No.7
MANTEC CONSULTANTS PVT LTD., NOIDA 6
The proposed facility shall be used for handling all kinds of liquid cargo i.e. POL, vegetable
oils/edible oils, others etc. which are permitted. However, Concessionaire shall handle and
store the chemicals and liquids as per the applicable CRZ notifications.
1. The main components of the oil jetty no. 07 which shall be constructed by the BOT
operator will be: a). A jetty of length 300 m x 15 m with approach of 210 meter &
b). Tank terminal for storage of liquid cargo of capacity 176842 KL.
2. The total estimated cost of the projects will be Rs.219.64 crore.
3. Storage tank farm with an aggregate storage capacity of 176842KL having pipeline
connectivity for receiving as well as supplying the fuels
4. The storage tank farm shall have fire fighting facilities, water sprinkler system,
concrete payment, lab testing facility, etc.
5. Capital and Maintenance dredging in front of the jetty is also proposed to be
undertaken by the BOT operator.
ii. Brief description of nature of the project
In order to ease pressure on the existing liquid cargo berths, KPT has taken a slew of
measures that include development of Oil jetties at old Kandla. In light of the same it is
proposed to develop and setting up of oil jetty no. 7 at old Kandla adjoining to the
existing oil jetty no. 6 (IOC jetty) at Old Kandla. Commissioning of the proposed facility
shall augment the liquid cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 3.02 Million MTs.
The proposed facility shall be used for handling liquid cargo.

iii. Need of the project and its importance to the country and or region.
The need of the project can be understood from the demand and supply mismatch at the
Kandla Port in terms of the liquid cargo being handled by the existing 6 Nos. of Jetties.
iv. Imports vs. indigenous production
The proposed jetty planned to be developed for handling of oil for both import as well as export.
v. Export possibility
The proposed jetty would be suitable for export of materials/products produced in its
hinter land.
vi. Domestic/export markets
There is existing demand from existing /proposed industries for import of materials for
domestic use as well as export materials/products.
vii. Employment generation (Direct & Indirect) due to the project.
Based on the preliminary estimates, the direct employment due to proposed project will be during the construction phase and indirectly during the operation phase.
3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
(i) Type of project including interlinked and interdependent project, if any.
As mentioned earlier, construction of Oil Jetty at Old Kandla is proposed to ease the pressure on the existing Oil jetties. It is anticipated that the even after the commissioning of the aforementioned facility, the capacity shall be inadequate to handle the likely liquid cargo traffic in future. Commissioning of the proposed facility shall augment the liquid cargo handling capacity of Kandla Port by 13 Million MTs. To 14.84 Million MTs. Hence this project should be seen as part of larger Kandla Port complex with interlinked operations.
(ii) Location (map showing general location, specific location, and project boundary and project site layout) with coordinates.
The proposed project site is situated at Kandla creek at Kandla near IOC Jetty (Oil Jetty
no. 6) having latitude 23°02'22.21" N & longitude 70°13'14.09" as per location map
enclosed at Annexure B.
(iii) Details of alternate sites considered and the basis of selecting the proposed site. Particularly the environmental consideration gone into should be highlighted.
The proposed Oil jetty site is located adjacent to the existing operational Oil jetties of
Kandla Port and is considered to be the most suitable site. No alternative site has been
considered.

(iv) Size or magnitude of operation.
The proposed jetty is planned to handle oil cargo of about 1.84 MMT per year in the
initial years. Further expansion with additional demand will be considered in future
when such needs arise.
(v) Project description with process details (a schematic diagram / flow chart showing the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given).
The project includes loading-unloading of oil as it does not include any process.
(vi) Raw material required along with estimated quantity, likely resource, marketing area of final product/s, mode of transport of raw material and finished products.
The raw materials are required only for jetty development and will be mainly in
the form of construction materials given below:
Cement - 4286.09 MT
Steel- 4571 MT
Crushed metal - 20426 MT
Sand- 14901.57 m3
Quarry spall- 140000 m3
Bitumen Emulsion- 37 MT
(vii) Resource optimization / recycling and reuse envisaged in the project, if any, should be briefly outlined.
The proposed project is development of a jetty and its operation. Therefore, resource optimization will be mainly in the form of effective use of infrastructure created and optimization of berth occupancy and utilities and services.
(viii) Availability of water its sources, energy / power requirement and sources should be given.
Water:
The Gujarat Water Supply and Sewerage Board are responsible for developing and
managing various sources of water in the region. The important source of water is the
14.5 Million m3 capacity reservoir of Tapar Dam, besides a number of deep tube wells.
Water is distributed to Kandla area from high service reservoir near Bhachau through
18” dia. CI mains, after chlorination. The capacities of the elevated water towers and
underground reservoirs at Kandla are 1500 kl. and 14000 kl., respectively. The average
daily consumption of water at Kandla area is estimated at around 2000 kl. The position
is improved to a great extent by tapping the source of water from Sardar Sarovour
Narmada Nigam Limited.
The water requirement has been envisaged based on the total area of the Project
considering the jetty area, area of approach and the Pipeline area. Water requirement
for the project is approximately 450 m3/day for the total area of 8.8 ha for the Project.
The quantity of effluent generation is assumed at 80% of water consumption which is
approximately 360 m3 /day.

Power: The port receives Bulk power supply from PGVCL through its 66 kVA sub
stations and has 11 KV substation giving power supply to the various other cranes and
installations. Besides, the port has two diesel generating sets to meet with emergency
needs. Kandla Port Trust is a distribution Licensee for power and distributes power to
the various users of Kandla.
Uninterrupted good quality estimated power requirement of 900MW is expected to be
supplied in the SEZ area by the Gujarat Government. However, master plan caters for
setting up a dedicated power back up from an independent power producer (IPP) at a
later stage, if required.
(ix) Quantity of wastes to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their management / disposal.
Prima facie, waste generated by BOT operator during any operations, is responsibility
of the same and he would have to make arrangements to deal with management of
disposal (both solid and liquid. Details of waste (both solid and liquid) generated and
its management would be ascertained at later stages.

4. SITE ANALYSIS
(i) Connectivity.
Airway The national airlines operate daily flights through the district headquarters at Bhuj as well
as Gandhidham which lies 67 Km. & 20 Km. respectively from Kandla Port.
Gandhidham airport is also operational and there is a daily flight to Mumbai from
this Airport.
Railway Broad gauge(BG) tracks directly connect the Port at New Kandla with the principal cities
of Mumbai, Ahmadabad, Surat, Baroda, etc., and also Delhi, Punjab and Haryana
through the route Ahmadabad-Ratlam- Kota - Mathura to Delhi. The second route is
via Palanpur - Ajmer to Delhi.
Apart from this, the existing meter gauge line from Bhildi to Samdari has been converted
to BG, which provides direct link to Jodhpur in Rajasthan & Bhatinda in Punjab and
reduces the reach to Hinterland by 118 Km.
Road Kandla is connected to the National Highway grid system through NH 8A coming from
Mumbai via Ahmedabad and Morbi and terminates at the Port. All main gates of
cargo jetty complex as well as oil jetty complex are directly connected to N. H. 8 A by
four lane wide roads. The city of Gandhidham where the Port Administrative Office
and the main staff colony are located, also lies on NH 8A about 13 Km. from the Port.
The port enjoys fully developed road network, both in and around the Port area to
facilitate faster movement of cargo.
(ii) Land form/ land use / land ownership.
Land is largely flat with scanty vegetation. Land currently is lying as barren land and is under ownership of Kandla Port.
(iii) Topography (along with map).
Topography at the site location is generally flat with average ground level of about 2m above MSL. Topsoil appears marshy. The master plan for Kandla Port Trust is attached.
(iv) Existing land use pattern (agriculture, non-agricultural, forest, water bodies [including area under CRZ]), shortest distance from the periphery of the project to periphery of the forest, national park, wild life sanctuary, eco sensitive areas, water bodies (distance from the HFL of the river), CRZ. In case of notified industrial area, a copy of the Gazette notification should be given.
Existing land use pattern of the proposed site is barren land, without and cultivation and is covered under coastal regulation.
(v) Existing infrastructure
The proposed Oil jetty is a green field project and nothing exists on the site as of
now. The backup area earmarked for the jetty is almost barren and flat. It is
PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT-Setting up of Oil Jetty No.7
MANTEC CONSULTANTS PVT LTD., NOIDA 12
proposed to construct and operate a wharf of length 300 m X 15 m on PPP basis. The
jetty shall be used for handling of liquid cargos like Chemicals, Edible oil and POL
products. The BOT operator shall undertake the following development activities at
the proposed project.
a. Port Infrastructure
The Port handles cargo at two locations, viz. Kandla and Vadinar (near Jamnagar).
Presently, Vadinar has three Single Buoy Moorings (SBMs), two installed by the
Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) & one installed by Vadinar Oil Terminal Ltd. (VOTL) for
handling of crude oil for its refineries. These SBMs can accommodate vessels up to 3
Lakhs DWT size and have a capacity to handle around 28.50 Million tons of crude
traffic per annum. Kandla has, at present, 12 dry cargo berths along with 2 container
handling berths and six oil jetties. The existing Fourteen general cargo berths have a
quay length measuring 3132.00 m. The custom fencing is 253 hectares. Also, Kandla
Port has 240.00 meter long barge handling jetty at Tuna. The permissible draught
and sizes of vessels that can be docked along the 14 berth at Kandla Port are given
below:
Berth No. Dead Weight Tonnage
(DWT)
Draught (in

XI 65000 13.0
XII 65000 13.0
XIII 75000 13.0
XV 75000 13.0
b). Container Cargo
Presently, there are two container berths i.e. 11th and 12th Cargo berth to handle
container cargo like manufactured items, wood, tiles, foodstuffs, textile, apparel, glass
and building materials, etc. Maximum DWT of the vessels and the permissible draft at
these jetties is shown in the table below:
Container Cargo Berth DWT Draught (M)

c. Liquid Cargo facility:
Existing Liquid Cargo Handling Capacity
Presently, six numbers oil jetties are handling liquid cargo at Old Kandla Port. In future,
proposed one number oil jetty shall be commissioned for handling liquid cargo at Old
Kandla Port. The combined capacity of all facilities at Kandla Port for handling liquid
cargo (excluding containers) is designated as 13 MMTPA. Further KPT has recently
signed concession agreement with Kandla Oil Terminal Private Limited for
“Development of Oil Jetty to Handle Liquid and Ship Bunkering Terminal at Old Kandla
on BOT Basis”. The same is to add the capacity of 3.39 MMTPA. Hence, total designated
capacity would be 16.39 MMTPA at Kandla Port. However, the designated capacity may
not be considered correct figure for analyzing the demand supply gap for the new port
facility to be developed. There are some practical operational factors as mentioned
following are responsible this:
Time loss due to berthing, un-berthing, custom checks, custom boarding, cargo
sampling, etc.
Time loss due to tidal restriction which may not allow ships to sail out even if the
handling operations are over, keeping them waiting for next high tide.
Since the existing oil jetties are quite old structures, it calls for relatively higher
time for maintenance.
Recently on-going strengthening of Oil Jetty No. 1 and 2 has also affected the
availability of the utilizable capacity to some extent.
Owing to the above factors, presently, there is waiting for getting the berthing for Liquid
tankers at Oil Jetty Complex of Kandla Port. Considering this phenomena, actual
utilizable capacity of the Oil Jetty Complex has to be considered with ideal berth
occupancy.
In view of the above, the existing capacity of the Oil Jetties No. 1 to 6 has been envisaged
as follows:
Particulars Values
Existing Capacity of Oil Jetties 1 to 6 13 MMTPA
Average Berth Occupancy of 1 to 6 75% (at this occupancy figure, waiting
is being observed for berthing)
Ideal Utilizable Capacity 9.75 MMTPA
Traffic handled by Oil Jetties 1 to 6 in the past may also be more than 9.75 MMTPA.
However, it would be with very high berth occupancy which is not advisable from the
asset maintenance point of view.
Historical Liquid Cargo Traffic at Kandla
The liquid cargo handled at Kandla Port has been studied. Growth and commodity share
analysis has also been undertaken keeping in mind the proposed facilities.

Based on the above analysis, following findings can be ascertained:
POL traffic has been constantly decreasing for the past five years. Further, the
analysis was carried out for past 10 years also. In that case also, the traffic was
found as decreasing. As per the industry players’ view, the POL traffic is affected
for long due to the reason that the domestic refineries have increased their
capacity and users of POL products are now sourcing the material locally and
India is on its way of turning the net exporter of Petroleum and petrochemical
products. Hence, the imports of POL traffic have been reducing.
Though POL traffic exports have reduced in case of past five years performance,
the same has increased considering the past 10 years data. This was also
discussed with industry players who opined that the India’s increasing capacity
of refineries could be the sole reason for increased exports of POL products.
Moreover, decrease at Kandla could be attributable to competition of state ports
like Mundra, Hazira, Pipavav, etc.
Overall subdued growth scenario for liquids handled at Kandla.

Another input from the industry players is that it is difficult to understand the
traffic trend of chemicals and liquid products which has very significant impact
from the pricing scenario at domestic as well as international markets.
POL viz-a-viz Edible Oils, Chemicals and Other Liquids put together has been
studied and analysed.

In terms of share of Cargo Type i.e. POL and Other Liquids, following is the
analysis of Liquid Cargo Handled at Kandla for past five years.
Cargo Type 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 5 year 10 Year

Other Liquids 71.53% 67.77% 70.11% 76.51% 76.28% 72.44% 67.21%
Share of POL has reduced from 32.23% in 2010-11 to 23.72% in 2013-14. In general, considering the above available data and views of some of the
industry players, it can be stated that the POL traffic may continue to reduce.
However, traffic of Edible Oils, Chemicals and Other Liquids may be expected to
increase. Further, if the facilities are strengthened, improved and expanded with
better infrastructure, the better growth may be expected.
Traffic Projections for Proposed Project
Oil jetties at Kandla have been observing the berth occupancy in excess of 75%.
Moreover, if the private captive jetties of IOC and IFFCO are excluded, the berth
occupancy exceeds 90% for last few years for Oil jetties No. 1 to 4.
However, traffic growth of liquid bulk at Kandla has been subdued due to: Lack of deep draft jetties Old infrastructure Competition from state ports where above two difficulties are not being faced.
Addressing the both the lacunas, proposed Oil Jetty No. 7 has been proposed comprising
Jetty with higher draft and modern infrastructure including storage tank farm with
required allied facilities.
Traffic projections have been prepared envisaging the handling of liquid cargo traffic
excluding POL since POL traffic has been found to be decreasing only. Hence, in the
PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT-Setting up of Oil Jetty No.7
MANTEC CONSULTANTS PVT LTD., NOIDA 16
proposed capacity formulation, handling of POL has not been considered. However, if the
Concessionaire wants to handle POL, it may be allowed to do so.
Past five years traffic of liquid cargo excluding POL has been growing at CAGR of around 4%.
However, traffic projections have been estimated based on 6% CAGR. Higher CAGR has been
considered due to improved infrastructure and deep draft Jetty and expected overall economic
growth recovery leading to growth in trade and traffic.
Projected traffic has been allocated for the ideally utilizable capacity of existing Oil Jetties and
expected utilization of upcoming new Oil jetty and Ship Bunkering Terminal on BOT. Following
table shows the traffic projections for the proposed Project.

Utilizable Capacity of Oil Jetties x Share of Liquid Cargo other than POL = 9.75 MMTPA * 72.44% i.e. share
of liquid cargo at Kandla excluding POL for past five years.
As it can be seen from the above traffic analysis and projections, liquid cargo traffic has been
projected at 6% CAGR. From the projected traffic, allocation to existing oil jetties has been
envisaged to be equal to ideally utilizable capacity of 7.06 MMTPA. Further, the utilization
expected in case of the Project of Oil Jetty and Ship Bunkering Terminal on BOT Basis has been
envisaged as per the Feasibility Report of that Project for Liquid Cargo excluding POL. Thus,
total allocation has been subtracted from projected traffic. Hence, the same has been
considered as the gap of traffic to be bridged by the proposed Oil Jetty No. 7. Though the said
gap / projection reaches around 1.79 MMTPA by FY 2023 which is almost equivalent to
proposed capacity, it is understood that the Project may take some time to ramp up the
utilization. Hence, the following utilization levels have been considered for revenue calculations
for the financial viability assessment.

Waves
Kandla Creek is protected from wave disturbances by a number of shoals at its outfall
into the gulf. This provides the setting for a basin with absolute tranquility. The creek
provides calm waters round the year for easy movement of shipping. Thus, Kandla has
become an all-weather Port of repute. The high amplitude tides coupled with a large
storage area has resulted in high flushing velocities inside. This has helped in cleansing
of the navigational channels, thus providing minimum siltation. Outside in the gulf, the
complex flow phenomenon has given rise to a number of shoals, which are dynamic in
nature. The Port of Kandla is approached through the channel starting from the Outer
Tuna Buoy. The shallow depths at the turning point of the channel are over passed
during high tides by vessels approaching the harbour. Ship movements are normally
confined to the high tides. Siltation in the channel is confined to a reach of hardly 3 km
only. The Port region is free from any significant wave disturbances.
Silt and Salinity
Silt charge and salinity observations were carried out during dry and monsoon months
in April and September 1983 at locations east and west of Kandla Creek and at two
stations in the Gulf of Kutch. The waters of the Creek are heavily silt charged, the range
being 1 to 3 ppt. The Creek waters have a salinity ranging from 23 to 25 ppt.
Temperature and Humidity
The climate of Kandla Port is generally tropical and dry. The air temperature varies from
less than 100 C in winter to about 440 C in summer. The mean, maximum and minimum

Waves
Kandla Creek is protected from wave disturbances by a number of shoals at its
outfall into the gulf. This provides the setting for a basin with absolute
tranquility. The creek provides calm waters round the year for easy movement of
shipping. Thus, Kandla has become an all-weather Port of repute. The high
amplitude tides coupled with a large storage area has resulted in high flushing
velocities inside. This has helped in cleansing of the navigational channels, thus
providing minimum siltation. Outside in the gulf, the complex flow phenomenon
has given rise to a number of shoals, which are dynamic in nature. The Port of
Kandla is approached through the channel starting from the Outer Tuna Buoy.
The shallow depths at the turning point of the channel are over passed during
high tides by vessels approaching the harbour. Ship movements are normally
confined to the high tides. Siltation in the channel is confined to a reach of hardly
3 km only. The Port region is free from any significant wave disturbances.
Silt and Salinity
Silt charge and salinity observations were carried out during dry and monsoon
months in April and September 1983 at locations east and west of Kandla Creek
and at two stations in the Gulf of Kutch. The waters of the Creek are heavily silt
charged, the range being 1 to 3 ppt. The Creek waters have a salinity ranging
from 23 to 25 ppt.
Temperature and Humidity
The climate of Kandla Port is generally tropical and dry. The air temperature
varies from less than 100 C in winter to about 440 C in summer. The mean,
maximum and minimum temperature observed in the different months at Kandla
is presented in the table below:
Months Mean of Max. Temp. Mean of Min. Temp.
January 25.2 13.0
February 27.5 15.5

August 30.7 25.4
September 33.3 24.5
October 34.2 23.1
November 32.4 20.2
December 25.6 13.5
Kandla region is fairly dry and only July, August and September is humid months.
The range of maximum relative humidity varies from 0% to 100%, whereas
PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT-Administrative Office Building at Tuna Tekra
11 MANTEC CONSULTANTS PVT. LTD., NOIDA
minimum values vary between 0 and 30%, except during July, August and
September, when minimum values vary between 25% and 50%.
Rainfall
Rainfall in Kandla is very low. Between January and April, there is normally no
rainfall. Rainfall generally remains confined between June end and mid
September. During the remaining months, the rainfall is scanty. The annual
average rainfall is around 200mm only.
Wind Conditions
From long term observation of wind velocities and directions, following
inferences can be made:
January The predominant direction is between NNE and NNW with speed range normally
between 12 and 19 Km/hr. which may exceed for about 10 % of the time.
February
The direction changes from NNE and SSW, but predominantly between WSW and
SSW. The wind speed from SSW varies between 12 and 39 km/ hr. for 15 % of the
time and for rest of the time it generally varies between 12 and 19 Km/ hr.
March The direction lies between NNW and SSW, but predominantly between WSW and
SSW. The wind speed from SSW varies between 12 and 39 km/ hr. for 15 % of the
time and for rest of the time it generally varies between 12 and 19 Km/ hr.
April to
June
The direction for wind is between WSW and SSW. The wind speed reaches a
maximum of 39 km/ hr. except in July, when the speed may exceed the range.
October The direction of wind changes from SSW to NNW. Wind speed ranges between 12
and 19 km/ hr. but the limit may exceed for 10 % of the time.
Nov. & Dec. The predominant direction is between NNE and NNW and the speed is between
12 and 19 km/hr.
Storms and Cyclones
Kandla port is not generally affected by cyclonic storms. During June 1998, a
severe cyclonic storm, which passed over Kandla Port with a wind speed of 150
km/hr., resulting in high tidal waves of 10.5 m with strong current, caused
extensive damages to the Port installations, crafts and human lives.

of the navigational channels, thus providing minimum siltation. Outside in the gulf, the
complex flow phenomenon has given rise to a number of shoals, which are dynamic in
nature. The Port of Kandla is approached through the channel starting from the Outer
Tuna Buoy. The shallow depths at the turning point of the channel are over passed
during high tides by vessels approaching the harbour. Ship movements are normally
confined to the high tides. Siltation in the channel is confined to a reach of hardly 3 km
only. The Port region is free from any significant wave disturbances.
Silt and Salinity
Silt charge and salinity observations were carried out during dry and monsoon months
in April and September 1983 at locations east and west of Kandla Creek and at two
stations in the Gulf of Kutch. The waters of the Creek are heavily silt charged, the range
being 1 to 3 ppt. The Creek waters have a salinity ranging from 23 to 25 ppt.
Temperature and Humidity
The climate of Kandla Port is generally tropical and dry. The air temperature varies from
less than 100 C in winter to about 440 C in summer. The mean, maximum and minimum
