All edible oil tanker vessels calling to Krishnapatnam Port are required to be ready for discharge the cargo while double banked with another edible oil tanker or dry cargo vessel alongside the berth as and when port required to achieve the productivity and reduce the turnaround time of the vessels.

If the vessel refuses to berth on double banking or does not permit other vessel to berth along her side, as and when port required, the port reserves the right to collect the productivity loss of $2,000 from the vessel. Additionally, the vessel will lose her seniority and junior vessel will be given opportunity to berth at double banking.

This trade notice is applicable with immediate effect.
