AUS40 supply at Paradip

Paradip is a major port on the Odisha coast handling petroleum, ore and container traffic, with berths inside the harbour and mooring arrangements offshore for crude vessels.

Identify the berth or, for a crude call, the offshore mooring. Whether the vessel is inside the harbour or outside it changes the delivery method entirely.

What decides feasibility at Paradip

Whether the vessel is inside the harbour or at an offshore mooring changes the delivery from a road movement to a waterborne one. Inside the harbour the terminal and berth then set the access conditions, so the enquiry needs both facts: harbour or offshore, and which berth.

Confirm these before the enquiry:

  • Inside the harbour or at an offshore mooring.
  • The berth or mooring name and the terminal operating it.
  • Port entry requirements for the vehicle and driver.
  • Whether delivery is permitted during cargo operations.

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.

Distinguish a Paradip harbour berth from an offshore SPM call. An offshore mooring requires marine delivery assessment. At a liquid berth, verify whether the shore route is permitted before choosing road delivery or a barge alternative.

For this call: Harbour berth or SPM identity; permission for a supply craft alongside; weather window and approved pumping equipment.

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

Say inside the harbour or at the mooring as soon as it is known, and give the berth or the mooring. The two need different notice.

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.

Review delivery and transfer planning.

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.

Paradip: common questions

The vessel is at an offshore mooring at Paradip. Can it be supplied?

It is assessed as a waterborne delivery rather than a road one, which needs a different arrangement and more notice. Say so in the enquiry and give the expected working period.

Which berth details are needed?

The berth and the terminal operating it. Paradip handles several cargo types and the conditions at a petroleum berth differ from those at an ore or container berth.

How far ahead should we ask?

As soon as the call is fixed. Quantity, format and the receiving arrangement all need settling before dispatch rather than on the day.
