Expansion Plans
It recently replaced the existing Mobile Harbor Cranes with higher capacity cranes as the existing cranes had already completed more than 23,000 hours of operations. The new cranes have better efficiencies and can discharge 40,000 TPD coal.
The Company is also in discussion with Mormugao Port Trust for the installation of in-motion wagon loading systems with ancillary facilities like Conveyers and Silos.
It is planning to increase the capacity of the conveyor system by 20 percent.
Plans to invest in additional mechanical equipment for handling heavier steel coils are also underway.
Connectivity at the Port is likely to improve soon, with the Government of Goa planning and contemplating to double the Vasco-Londa line.
Connectivity
South West Port is conveniently located as it is connected to two National Highways — NH 17 and NH 4A; NH4A connects to the Mumbai-Bengaluru NH 14.
The Government of Goa is considering upgrading the Vasco-Londa state highway.
South West Port also has the unique advantage of a railway connection right at its terminals, with the Southwest Railway rail head entering the harbour to touch the terminal. This makes transportation of goods by rail easy.South West Port is the closest harbour to the industrial belt of northern and central Karnataka, particularly the steel industry cluster of Bellary, Hospet, which houses many steel and cement plants.
The nearest airport is the Goa International Airport, which is 8.4 kms from Mormugao Harbour.
The Zuari and Mandovi rivers provide inland waterway transport facilities, connecting the Mormugao Harbour — and the South West Port — with mines and manufacturing plants in the hinterland.
