WEEKLY AVERAGE FUEL CONSUMPTION PER VESSEL
As can be seen above the average fuel consumption per week is 14,188 gallons with a total cost of $11.5M, the average monthly fuel consumption is therefore 56,752 gallons (that is 14,188 * 4) with a corresponding expenditure of $46M (that is $11.5M * 4).
During the year 2014, the total Capital allotment to Transport and Harbours Department was $483.0M.
This amount had catered for the dry-docking of three (3) vessels, Acquisition of Spares and the Rehabilitation of a few Stellings as follows:-
M.V. Malali – Allotment $120.0MThe M.V. Malali which plies the Parika/Supenaam/Wakenaam route was docked at E.C. Vieira Dockyard for the period September 1 to October 9, 2014 at a cost of $118.0M.
Extensive works were carried out to the hull, superstructure, underwater fittings and machineries/equipment.
VESSELS/SHIPS
M.V. Malali docked at E.C. Vieira Dockyard
M.V. Kanawan and M.V. Sabanto – Allotment $50.0M
These two (2) vessels which ply the Parika/Supenaam route are scheduled to be docked this year to the tune of $25.0M each.
Critical areas to be addressed include the hull, where anodes would be installed, doors to be serviced, under water fittings to be checked and serviced. These vessels will be docked at E.C. Vieira Dockyard.
M.V. Barima The M.V. Barima which was slated to be docked in
2013 was docked in year 2014 at a total cost of $103,771,450. Due to the deplorable dock gate at Mazaruni the docking could not have materialized in 2013.
The Gate has since been rehabilitated and the M.V. Barima is currently ongoing dry-docking there.
Upon completion of her docking exercise she is slated to replace the M.V. Lady Northcote on the Georgetown North West district service. This should take effect by the first quarter in 2015 since additional works need to be addressed such as the winch and generator.

OTHER ACHIEVEMENTS
1.The Maritime Administration Department had dredged the Chalmers and Sting Ray crossing in the Essequibo River making it possible for the vessels to traverse freely. The vessels plying the Parika/Supenaam and Parika/Wakenaam services that were restricted to operate on tidal condition are no longer operating under such restriction.
Instead of a boat every twelve (12) hours there will be a boat every five (5) hours three (3) trips per day that is 6 a.m., 11.00 a.m. and 4.00 p.m.
IMPROVED FERRY SERVICES
2.The Mazaruni Dock Gate was rehabilitated at a cost of $17.0M.

There were two (2) major incidents in 2014 as listed hereunder:1. On April 9, 2014 while lorry # GKK 9159 was disembarking the M.V. Kanawan which was berth alongside the Supenaam Stelling, the vessel sheared away about 6-8 feet from the stelling causing both chains and wire ropes to snap resulting in the said lorry falling overboard. This matter is presently engaging the attention of the Ministry of Legal Affairs; hence we are awaiting advice on the way forward.2. On November 17, 2014 while the M.V. Sabanto was en route to Supenaam Stelling there was restricted visibility, hence the Captain and look outs lost all sense of direction and position,
INCIDENTS
but the Captain failed to drop anchor and wait for the weather to improve. Nevertheless, the vessel continued to travel at an unsafe speed, relative to the condition of restricted visibility, the Captain then gave the wrong helm order thereby causing the vessel to run hard aground onto the south-western side of the Wakenaam Island in the Essequibo River. As a consequence, the Captain has since been dismissed from the Department’s service and the Helmsman and all the look outs were suspended from duty, without pay, for one month each.
