AUS40 supply at Visakhapatnam (Vizag)
Visakhapatnam works through an inner harbour and an outer harbour, handling bulk, liquid and container cargo, with deep-draught capability at the outer harbour and an anchorage used regularly.
Include the precise terminal or berth and the agent’s operational window. If the vessel is at anchorage, provide its position and request a separate feasibility assessment.
What decides feasibility at Visakhapatnam (Vizag)
Inner harbour, outer harbour and anchorage are three different delivery problems, not three descriptions of one port. Access route, vehicle permissions and whether a craft is needed all change between them, so the enquiry has to say which. Naming only "Vizag" leaves the main variable open.
Confirm these before the enquiry:
- Inner harbour, outer harbour or anchorage: state which.
- The berth number or the anchorage position.
- Whether road access to the berth is available for the delivery vehicle.
- The agent’s operational window for the call.
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.
Identify the Visakhapatnam terminal or offshore location, not a Gangavaram call. For oil or gas-related berths, check vehicle entry and ignition-source controls explicitly. Barge delivery is assessed separately when a shore route is unavailable.
For this call: Terminal and vessel position; marine access and simultaneous-operation permission; accepted pump drive and hazardous-area documentation.
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 inner harbour, outer harbour or anchorage in the first message, and whether a craft is needed to reach the vessel. Each is a different plan.

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.
Visakhapatnam (Vizag): common questions
What is the difference between Visakhapatnam inner and outer harbour for a delivery?
They have different access routes and different vehicle permissions, and the outer harbour handles deeper-draught tonnage. A delivery plan made for one does not apply to the other, so the enquiry needs to specify which.
Can you supply a vessel at Visakhapatnam anchorage?
It is assessed as a separate case. An anchorage delivery requires a craft, suitable conditions and permissions that do not follow from the port being listed. Send the position and the expected duration for review.
Is Vizag the same as Visakhapatnam?
Yes. Vizag is the common short form. Both are understood on an enquiry.
