West Bengal, India — East Coast · Riverine general cargo and containers
Also known as Calcutta and Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port
Kolkata works some 200 km up the Hooghly, which makes it the one Indian major port where the river rather than the berth sets the schedule. Vessels transit on the tide through a shifting bar, and a stores delivery has to be planned around the same window the pilot is.
Working Kolkata
- Tidal transit up the Hooghly fixes the delivery slot to the pilotage window rather than to preference.
- Draft restrictions push deeper vessels to lighten at Sandheads or to work Haldia instead.
- Dock system access is gated, and passes are arranged through the agent ahead of the run.
How we supply Kolkata
Served with the order consolidated in Chennai and moved up ahead of the call, so the stores are dockside before the vessel takes the tide rather than chasing it.
