Transit and berthing drafts

Further to the depth declaration for Port Kembla Harbour, please find guidance for static, transit and berthing drafts. In some cases the berth box is deeper than the transit depths/drafts.

The actual transit drafts, for applicable vessels, will be determined by DUKC system. This determination is made closer to the scheduled berthing date…
