from the management discussion and analysis:
"Challenges faced in Bulk Liquid handling at Indian Ports are:Capacity constraints, lack of adequate infrastructure at Ports is a critical challenge faced in liquid bulk handling industry. Liquid bulk capacity utilization at Indian ports stands at 90-95%, much higher compared to international average of 70-75% which is considered to be ideal. This results in higher turnaround times and longer waiting period for berthing leading to port congestion. The major ports across upper west coast (Kandla, Mumbai and JNPT) account for almost 50% of liquid bulk handled at major ports with capacity utilization more than 95%."
"The Central Government is taking a number of progressive steps which would promote the growth of Indian liquid bulk industry. As a first step, it has deregulated the diesel prices. This would encourage private players to explore downstream distribution creating opportunities for storage providers. Currently, the Company’s 2 Bulk Liquid Chemical Terminals at Kandla, Gujarat operates at a combined capacity of 127,000 Kilo Litres (KL) at with a total of 64 tanks including specialized tanks, such as stainless steel tanks, tanks equipped with heating and insulation facilities and coated tanks which stores speciality products. The Company is awaiting requisite approvals from concerned authorities to add further capacity of 7000 KL at its Terminal 1, Kandla. The Company plans to convert certain Mild Steel (MS) Tanks to Stainless Steel (SS) based upon demand from its customers which shall contribute additional revenues. The Company has converted one MS Tank to MS Heat traced special tank on a specific requirement of a customer"
