AUS40 supply at Kattupalli
Kattupalli is a privately operated port on the Tamil Nadu coast north of Ennore, combining container handling with shipyard facilities.
Name the terminal explicitly. Kattupalli is a private facility north of Ennore and is routinely confused with it in enquiries.
What decides feasibility at Kattupalli
Kattupalli, Ennore and Chennai lie within a short stretch of the same coast and are frequently confused with one another in enquiries. Kattupalli is a private facility with its own access procedure, so naming it explicitly is the difference between a delivery that can be arranged and one that arrives at the wrong gate.
Confirm these before the enquiry:
- Kattupalli by name, confirmed against the call instructions.
- The berth, and whether the call is a cargo or a yard call.
- The operator’s access, pass and escort requirements.
- The receiving party and the working window.
Berth-side or barge delivery
PROTICKS provides barge delivery where berth or jetty-side supply is not accessible, subject to a suitable craft, port and terminal permission, vessel acceptance and weather.
Treat Kattupalli as its own call, separate from Chennai and Ennore. Confirm access to the receiving side around container and other terminal work. If a barge is proposed, obtain a terminal-specific assessment before arranging the craft.
For this call: Exact terminal or facility; cargo and lifting schedule; berth-side or water-side receiving permission.
Neither an electric pump nor a fuel-engine pump is automatically permitted in a sensitive area. Confirm the terminal-approved equipment before dispatch. Barge delivery does not bypass cargo-operation or safety restrictions.
Planning the notice period
Name Kattupalli explicitly rather than the region, and send the berth and arrival window when the call is fixed. Access is arranged with the facility itself.

Send the vessel requirement
- Vessel name and IMO number if available.
- Port, terminal, berth or anchorage position.
- ETA, ETB and ETD with date and time zone.
- Quantity, preferred format and usable receiving capacity.
- Local agent, company contact, documentation requirements, and whether you want PROTICKS to carry out the transfer.
Packaging & transfer
Choose 210 L drums, 1,000 L IBCs or an agreed bulk / ISO tank arrangement. Packaging does not determine the delivery route: road, barge or boat access must be assessed separately. Ask for pump kit, hoses, couplings, calibrated flow meter and personnel if needed, subject to terminal and vessel acceptance.
Product & paperwork
PROTICKS AUS40 is ISO 18611 certified and meets the requirements of IS 17661 (Part 1):2022. Check whether the vessel is specified for AUS40 or AUS32, then check the batch Certificate of Analysis and current MSDS before approving supply. Product-document checklist.
Kattupalli: common questions
Is Kattupalli the same as Ennore?
No. They are separate facilities on the same stretch of coast. Kattupalli is privately operated with its own entry procedure, so an arrangement made for Ennore does not carry across.
The vessel is in the yard rather than at a cargo berth. Does that matter?
It can. A yard call has different access conditions from a cargo call, so say which it is and the arrangement can be set up correctly the first time.
How much notice is needed?
Send the requirement as soon as the call is fixed. Private terminals set their own access conditions and confirming them takes time.
