Paradip Port
Paradip in Odisha is one of India's highest-tonnage major ports, working coal, iron ore, crude and other bulk cargo at deep draft. The east coast's cyclone season materially affects operations, and pre-arrival planning matters more here than at sheltered ports.

How We Supply This Port
During the east-coast cyclone season we bring Paradip stores forward rather than delivering to schedule, so a weather stoppage does not leave the vessel short.
