ISO 9001, ISO & OHSAS IRON ORE HANDLING AT THE PORT Ore handling plant (3000 TPH) commissioned at Inner Harbour – 1965 Outer harbour commissioned to handle 100,000 DWT vessels and ore handling plant up-graded in Ore berth deepened to handle 150,000 DWT ships Catering to export requirements of iron ore and pellets, thus contributing to the nation’s economy Value of the iron ore exported through the port is Rs. 25 crores per annum

ISO 9001, ISO & OHSAS NEED FOR THE PROJECT To meet the demand from the Japanese buyers/Indigenous units to cater to 200,000 DWT vessels To improve efficiency and reduce cost

ISO 9001, ISO & OHSAS SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The proposal envisages  Up-gradation of ore berth by constructing additional mooring dolphin  Deepening the berth to cater to 18.1 m draft  Replacement of equipment to improve the loading rate from 4000 TPH to 8000 TPH

ISO 9001, ISO & OHSAS SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The proposal envisages  Up-gradation/ Re-orientation of existing conveyor belts  Consolidation of stack yard  Modernisation of relay based electrical control system to PLC
