Karachi Port operations
KARACHI, Nov 1: Nine ships carrying containers, general cargo and DAP fertilizer are expected to arrive at the outer anchorage on Saturday, according to KPT sources.
Berthing activity at the wharves was modest where all the four new arrivals were berthed: They are: Kota Tegun, Sima Kija and PONL Everest to unload and load containers and Petrolimer to offload palm oil.
Two ships, Chitral and Da Ping Hai departed on Friday, while Bel Grace, Challenger Express, Petrolimer, PONL Everest, Sima Kija and Sinar Bontang are expected to sail out on Saturday.
Berth occupancy at the oil piers was 100 per cent, while it fell to 52 per cent at the dry wharves owing to slow arrivals of foreign vessels.
Cargo handling activity at the wharves was maintained on the higher side where a total tonnage of 85,423 tons comprising 28,631 tons of export cargo and 56,792 tons of import tonnage was handled.
The following ships are due on Saturday: Anxin Jiang, Hyundai Vladivostok, Bunga Terasak, Jamila, Global Progress, PONL Singapore, Med Tai Chung, with containers, OBI Wan, with 39,735 tons of DAP fertilizer and Multan, with general cargo.
KARACHI, Nov 1: Two vessels carrying chemicals and containers were arranged berthing at Multipurpose Terminal and QICT during the last 24 hours, says a PQA press release on Friday.
A cargo volume of 42,455 tons comprising 23,054 tons of import cargo and 19,401 tons of export cargo, inclusive of cargo carried in 959 containers (Teus), was handled.
