07 Sep 2017 / Vizag Port, India
Authorities at Vizag have suspended all inward and outward movements at EQ 5, EQ 6, EQ 7, EQ 8, EQ 9, WQ 4, WQ 5 & WQ 6 berths since yesterday evening (6 September), after a ship being loaded with steel billets started to list badly.
Stevedores are discharging the cargo using the EQ crane. Based on current information, this operation is expected to be completed by tomorrow.
The immediate priority of the port is to sail outward vessels, one-by-one. Thereafter, a decision will be made regarding the inward movement of waiting vessels.
