4.14 SUMMARY

Present chapter deals with analysis of the selected commodities and demand estimation

for the years 2006-7 and 2011-12. Consultants studied exiting traffic pattern by Road,

Rail, Pipeline and Coastal Shipping. The major commodities that are being moved by

Coastal Shipping are crude, POL, coal, iron ore, iron & steel, cement contributing to more

than 90 percent of the total coastal traffic. Besides these commodities, other commodities

such as fertilisers, food grains, LNG and general cargo are also examined to understand

the possibilities of moving these commodities by coastal shipping. The methodology

adopted to estimate future traffic considers commodity specific production, consumption,

imports/exports, existing modal share and growth rates at national level. These

commodities are apportioned to the corresponding ports based on the observed movement

pattern. Further, impact of future projects (industrial activities etc) in the vicinity of the

port service area were also considered.

Crude will continue to be at 16 million tonnes (present level) as the domestic production

of crude oil assumed to be constant for the coming the years.

Traffic estimates indicate POL movement by coastal shipping will reach 25 million

tonnes by 2006-07 with Sikka as the loading port handling majority of the POL traffic

among minor ports.

Coal movement by coastal shipping is estimated to reach 20 million tonnes with loading

ports as Paradip, Haldia, Vizag and discharge ports as Ennore and Tuticorin.

Iron Ore movement by coastal shipping is estimated as 9.75 million tonnes by 2006-07

and the load ports will be Vizag, New Mangalore, Panaji and discharge port will be

Magdalla, Dharamtar, Revdanda, Tuticorin, Bhavnagar and Pipavav.

Iron and Steel movement by coastal shipping is estimated as 0.76 million tonnes by 2006-

07 with load ports as Magdalla, Revedanda, Vizag and discharge ports will be Cochin,

Mumbai and Pipavav

Movement of cement through coastal shipping is estimated as 8.65 million tonnes with

majority of the movement happening on the west coast ports like Mul Dwaraka,

Jaffrabad, Pipavav, Porbandar being the load ports and Ulwa Belapur, Magdalla,

Dharamtar, Ratnagiri, Azhikkal, Cuddalore, Cochin, New Mangalore, JNPT as discharge

ports. Cement appears to have better prospects to move by coastal shipping.

The movement of fertilisers and foodgrains is estimated to be insignificant. Large

quantities of food grains are moving from one region to another region by other modes of

transport in a fragmented market environment. However, movement by coastal shipping

may increase if vertical integration of the producers, wholesalers and importers takes

place.

In the given situation, coastal shipping accounts for less than 1 percent general cargo

movement in India. The scenario will change, if the penetration of containerisation

increases and the establishment of international transhipment port.
