The development of a jetty to accommodate Very Large Container Ships (VLCS) is planned by APM Terminals Pipavav (Gujarat Pipavav Port), India's first private sector port, at an estimated cost of Rs 8 billion. The development of the VLCS jetty to handle greater cargo at the Pipavav port has apparently received board approval from GPPL. The choice was made in light of India's anticipated rise in demand for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). The 30-year lease on the Pipavav port is set to end in September 2028, thus the firm decided to build a new liquid freight jetty at this time. Currently, Pipavav port has five jetties: two for containers, two for bulk/break freight, and one for liquid cargo. Contact: APM Terminals Pipavav Tel: 02794-2424 00 Website: www.apmterminals.com
