1 Background
South West Port Ltd. (SWPL) is presently handling Coal and Steel Products at Berth
5A-6A using Mobile Harbour Cranes. Coal ships calling at the Berth are generally
uptoPanamax (80,000 – 90,000 DWT) in size and throughput close to 7.5 MTPA
(Coal) is being achieved presently.
It is now proposed to enhance bulk cargo handling of the facility (existing and
under implementation) by modernising and utilising larger ships upto cape size
(180,000 DWT) and checking feasibility of handling Iron Ore.
SWPL has lately extended existing reclaim conveyor J7C1 which is connected to a
Pipe Conveyor. An In-motion wagon loading arrangement comprising a silo of 4000
tonnes capacity (Coal) with staticloading system has been installed to dispatch coal
by wagons. The pipe conveyor connected to silo is under trial runs and is yet to be
put to operation achieving therequired capacity.
It is the objective to analyze the system for enhancing the terminal capacity mainly
for handling of Iron Ore and Coal with least changes in the existing equipment and
implementation time with least plant shut down time.

2 Site Conditions and Existing Facilities
2.1 Site Conditions
2.1.1 Environmental Data
A. Wind
The normal wind force varies from 4 to 7 on the Beaufort Scale. The direction is
mainly from South-West, West and North-West during the monsoon season.
During the rest of the year winds of smaller force flow from North, North-East,
East and South-East generally in the morning and from South-West, West and
North-West during the evening. The highest average winds speed is in the
range of 30 km/hour – recorded in July 1965. The highest speed is 80 km/hour
– recorded in December 1966. Winds of force more that 10 on the Beaufort
Scale is not expected.
The design wind pressure on the structure will be based on the basic wind speed
of 39 m/sec. as per IS:875, Part-III, 1987. However, for determining the
mooring forces on the vessel, operational wind velocity of 15 m/sec. has been
considered on the exposed area of the vessel.
B. Wave
The proposed location is well protected by breakwater and Mormugao
headland from the wave action. Model test indicates that at the site of work,
waves are almost under 0.3 m and very rarely around 0.4 m. The design wave
height is taken as 0.8 m with a period of 8 sec.
C. Currents
The currents in the area are generally less than 1.0 knot and maximum current
velocity of 0.5 m/sec has been considered for the design purpose.
D. Tide
The mean tide variation at Mormugao Harbour is of the order of 1.6 m at
spring tides and around 0.7 m at neap tides. The following tides refer to Chart
Datum which is 4.84 m below the principal bench mark situated between the
two wings of the site administration office building of Mormugao Port. This
bench mark is 3.6 m below IMSL.
1. Mean Higher High Water 2.06 m
2. Mean Lower Low Water 0.37 m
3. Mean Lower High Water 1.78 m
4. Mean Higher Low Water 1.05 m
5. Higher High Water at Spring near Solstices 2.30 m
6. Mean Sea Level 1.30 m
7. Lower Low Water at Spring near Solstices 0.00 m

E. Temperature
The location of Mormugao is such that there is little variation in the atmospheric
temperature and it has constantly high humidity. The maximum temperatures
vary from about 28oC in January to 32oC in May and the minimum temperature
varies from about 21oC in January to 28oC in May. The mean percentage of
relative humidity is about 83% for the year. It is about 92% during August and
September and 75% during December.
The temperature variation of +/-15oC between Super-structure and Sub-
structure with reference to the temperature at the time of construction will be
considered.
A linear difference between top and bottom of deck of 10oC has been
considered.
2.1.2 Geo-Technical Information
A series of bore holes have been made along the berth alignment by SWPL.
Nearly all the bore holes along this line exhibit very soft to soft marine clay,
thickness varying from 3 to 13 m with „N‟ value in the range of 0 to 4 followed by
stiff to very stiff clay with „N‟ value varying between 6-28 and undrained Cohesion
Cw=1 to 2 kg/sq.cm. Medium dense to dense layer starts thereafter with „N‟ value
between 13 – 50 and dia = 35 deg. Very dense layer underlays this layer with „N‟
value more than 50 and highly weathered to moderately weathered rock lies
thereafter.
The soil properties adopted for the design are as follows:

2.1.3 Seismic Load Earthquake Resistant Design
Mormugao is located in the seismic zone – III as per clause 222 of IRC 6 – 1966.
Seismic analysis shall be carried out accordingly. The design of the structures shall
be in accordance with the requirements of the Indian Standard IS:1893 – 1984.
2.1.4 Wharf Characteristics
The elevation of the existing deck was established considering the combination of
the design water level and wave action. For open wharf construction, the deck
elevation was selected so as to ensure that the crest of the maximum wave will

will have a reduced length.
The space presently utilized for storage of Steel products and limestone will be
free for storage of imported bulk cargo, if required
c) Despatch by rail will continue utilising newly installed In-motion Wagon Loading
System.
d) Despatch by rail using existing Wagon Loader(travelling type) will be
discontinued.
e) Ships will generally bring only one type or grade of cargo

3.5 Unloading Equipment at Berth and Productivity
3.5.1 Equipment Type and Rating
Presently Coal is unloaded from the vessels by using two / three Mobile Harbour
Cranes. Berth has provision for installing CR-80 rails at 18 m centres. The berth

conveyor, which receives the unloaded Coal, is located outside the rails on land
side.
Ships presently calling at the terminal are generally upto about 90,000 DWT. In
iron ore and coal trade, higher size vessels are being used world over and with the
facility being enhanced to handle upto 180,000DWT, it is anticipated that, on an
average, higher vessels (say 120,000 to 130,000 DWT) will call at the terminal.
It is proposed to install two new Grab-type Shiploaders on the berth,eachhaving
the following capacity:
Iron Ore = 2500 TPH
Coking Coal = 2000 TPH
For the Ship size under consideration, 2 Unloaders of atleast 2500 TPH is the
minimum unloading rate for the Iron ore shippment trade. For unloading of coking
Coal maximum unloading rate per unloader is limited to 2000 TPH because of
disadvantage of large grab size required to handle Coal, relatively lighter cargo.
Initially the Unloaders may operate at 1500 TPH for Iron Ore/Coal till the
downstream system is upgraded.
Typical arrangement of Grab Unloader, which will work in conjunction with the
berth conveyor, is shown in drawing No. A-111 Fig-01.Due to load limitations on
the existing berth, two options of unloader wheel configuration with maximum
permissible loads are specified in the drawing.
With the proposed enhancement of the Terminal, assessment of the terminal
capacity of the existing berth is analysed to establish the requirement of
downstream facilities such as stockyard, receiving/stacking conveyors etc.
Since SWPL is an operating Terminal, it is anticipated that unloading efficiency of
about 60 % of the rated capacity could be achieved with their skilled operators.
Moreover, JSW with their involvement in large network of ship chartering services,
as understood, will be able to monitor ship arrival at SWPL so that there will not be
undue waiting at the port even at 65% berth occupancy.
Presently Coal is being unloaded using Mobile Harbour Crane achieving about
40,000 Tonnes/day over a ship. With installation of new unloaders, it is expected
to achieve about 40,000 and 50,000 Tonnes/day of Coal over a ship when
operating with two Unloaders, each operating at 1500 TPH (initially)& 2000 TPH
(finally) respectively. Hence the following parameters are adopted to assess annual
throughput that could be achieved at the berth, as computed below:
Iron Ore = Unloading efficiency as 60%.
Coking Coal = 50,000 Tonnes/day (@ 2000 TPH); 40,000 Tonnes/day
(@1500 TPH)

a) Net available time for both operations 340 days
b) Average Ship Size 125,000 DWT
c) Time required for ship movement 6 hrs. per ship
d) Berth Occupancy (single berth) 60%
e) Available time at 60% berth occupancy

9.25Million Tonnes
l) Throughput / annum (MTPA) with 65% berth occupancy
~14 Million Tonnes 10 Million Tonnes
Adopting the same basis as discussed in the table above, the following three cases
for annual throughput with 100% Iron Ore, or 100% Coal are achievable
depending on unloader capacity considering 60% berth occupancy:
Unloader Capacity (TPH) Achievable Throughput per annum (in million tonnes)
Iron ore Coal Iron ore Coal
Case I 2x1500 2x1500 8.1 or 8 MTPA 7.5 MTPA
Case II 2x2000 2x2000 ~10.5 MTPA 9.3, or 9 MTPA
Case III 2x2500 2x2000 12.8 or 13 MTPA
9.3, or 9 MTPA
Capacity will increase at 65% berth occupancy
Factors like average ship size, berth occupancy, etc., will influence the achievable
annual throughput. A generalised approach is adopted with varying ship size and
berth occupancy level to compute achievable annual throughput at berth for Coal
and Iron Ore, as depicted in Fig.02. It may be noted that, say with average ship
size 95,000 DWT, the corresponding throughput of Iron Ore and Coal will be
~12.3 MTPA and ~9 MTPA respectively at 60% berth occupancy and same at
65% berth occupancy will be about 13.3MTPA and 9.8 MTPA respectively.
Cargo mix (partly Coal and Iron Ore)
Coal being a lighter cargo, relatively lower throughput will be
achievablecompared to Iron Ore, as is evident from the foregoing. Throughput
planned for one cargo will decide the quantum of throughput that can be handled

be installed at berth for supply of water to the onboard Dust Suppression
System of the Ship Unloaders.
F. Berth Conveyor Extension
The existing berth conveyor J1C1, which will work in conjunction with the
Unloaders, will be extended by about 60 m towards North-West direction.
3.6 Stockyard Capacity
Stockyard is a critical interface between receipt of cargo from ship and dispatch
by wagons which absorbs the mismatch between the inflow and outflow of cargo
during operations and it is desirable the same to be sized adequately for smooth
functioning of the terminal as well as achieving the targeted throughput. Generally,
higher of the following two factors is considered for the stockyard, as per norms
adopted universally in port facility planning, unless there are specific site related
constraints and if large number of grades of Iron ore and Coal are required to be
handled.
Generally about 1/15 of the annual throughput, i.e. average dwell time of
cargo as about 22.6 days on the basis of berth operating days, i.e. 340
days/annum. At times 1/18 of annual throughput is adopted where storage
area is a major constraint and/or cargo evacuation is prompt, regular and
commensurate with inflows.
About 1.5 times the maximum ship size.
The existing stockyard has storage capacity of 180,000 tonnes of Coal, stacked in
three stockpiles having about13 m height. With current operations, the stockyard
capacity is able to support about 7.5 MPTA throughput of Coal presently being
handled at the facility, which implies about 1/41.7 of throughput, i.e. about 8.1
days of dwell time of cargo on the basis of berth operating days, i.e. 340

days/annum.The equivalent Iron Ore stockyard capacity, utilizing the same area as
is being used for coal presently; works out to about 440,000 tonnes with 10 m
stockpile height. Height of stack may be further increased based on soil conditions.
The soil conditions will be determined at the detail engineering stage. Layout of
stockyard with existing dimensions is shown in Fig.03 identifying Coal and Iron Ore
capacity that could be stacked using the existing Stacker/Reclaimers.
While assessing increase in stackyard capacity,it is observed that two side
stockpiles can be widened by utilizing the area covering “Platform for stacking
steel cargo” on northern side andthe area covering “Rail tracks 1&2 and 3
allocated for loading of wagons by the Existing Wagon Loader on South
side.Layout of the stackyard with extended stockpile area is shown in Fig.04. It is to
noted that
Out of 22m space available for extension of stockpile, only 14m width of the
extended stockpile will be built by use of Payloadersbecause of the limitation
of the existing Stacker/Reclaimer boom length, remaining 8 to 10m can be
utilized as storage if Pay loader is used to spread the cargo. (Ref. Fig.04).
Similarly, nearly 100% of the material in extended width of stockpile will need
to be pushed by the Payloaders to bring it within reach of the bucket wheel for
reclaiming operations.
Existing retaining wall, about 500mm high, will be dismantled and new one will
be built along the extended stockpiles.
Existing tracks (on South side) and the Wagon Loader, etc., will be dismantled.
Dwell time of stockyard area available as per Fig.03 and Fig.04 as compared to
throughputs projected in Section 3.5.1 is analysed in the table below:

It can be summarized that :
o Widening of storage space improves the comfort level and makes dispatch
system less dependent of timely arrival of ships.
o The margin of comfort will further improve if direct loading features i.e. transfer
of cargo from berth to Wagon loading station is introduced.
Under the circumstances, it is proposed to enhance the stockyard capacity by
widening the existing end stockpile to handle projected throughput at berth, when
steel product export is shifted to different berth and in-motion wagon loading
operation stabilizes satisfactorily.
3.7 Wagon Loading System
3.7.1 Capacity Analysis
In this section, the capability of wagon loading system has been analysed. The
performance of wagon loading system is mainly dependend on the following:
i. Reclaiming rate at which the material can be reclaimed from the stockyard.
ii. Time required to complete loading of a rake
iii. Time taken for handling system to be ready for loading the next rake
TERMINAL CAPACITY ENHANCEMENT - BERTH 5A-6A AT MORMUGAO PORT, FOR HANDLING OF IRON ORE AND LIMESTONE INCLUDING MULTIPLE CARGO AND CAPE SIZE VESSELS

Employer:JSW - South West Port Ltd. Engineer:Grafix Engineering Consultants Pvt. Ltd.
iv. Time taken to remove the loaded rake and bringing-in the new rake for starting
the next loading cycle.
The events i), ii) and iii) are built-in capacity of the Facility where as the event iv) is
influenced entirely by external factors which are variable and may improve over
the time. Hence, for designing the Facility, the events i), ii) & iii) have been analysed
and optimized.
3.7.2 Silo for Iron Ore
Silo for Iron ore is not common in India mostly because of lack of mechanisation at mines for
wagon loading system.
However, Silo has been used also in India for such applications, as given below (from
Grafix data bank):
Surge silo of 2000 tonnes in Visakhapatnam Port at Outer Harbour.
Silo of 4000 tonnes at Mine site, in Kudremukh Iron Ore Project (there may be
more than one silo).
Silo for In-motion Wagon Loading for Tata Iron & Steel at Jodamines, Orissa
(Silo capacity is not known)
All the silos are made of steel and understand In-motion Wagon Loading System
of TISCO, the latest silo as we know, is in operation for more than two years.
3.7.3 Contamination in Silo
It is assumed that switch-over from handling of Iron Ore to Coal, or vice-versa, will not be
frequent.
Contamination can be controlled
- By filling the Silo carefully for the last rake before switching over to the next cargo.
- The unavoidable leftover cargo in the silo can be discharged on truck if it is substantial
or mixed with next cargo for loading the first rake after switch over.
If this method is adopted the contamination will be limited to the cargo in the first rake
after switch over. Since, both Iron Ore and Coal user is common (i.e. JSW), an appropriate
utilization of the contaminated cargo, limited to the first rake after switch over, may be
found at the Steel Plant.
3.7.4 Silo & Loading Arrangement
The existing Silo is designed for Coal which is not suitable for good flow ability required
for Iron ore with high moisture content. It needs modification for providing steeper slope
which is possible to do since conical portion of the existing silo is made of steel.
Simultaneously, the wagon loading unit needs to be replaced to provide flow ability
required for Iron Ore.

Employer:JSW - South West Port Ltd. Engineer:Grafix Engineering Consultants Pvt. Ltd.
Various alternatives have been considered before arriving at the conclusion shown in the
concept drawing Fig.07.The alternative shown in Fig. 06 is found to be unsatisfactory due
to various reasons, namely
1. Slope of the main silo is not steep enough for assured flow of Iron Ore
2. Involvement of too many equipment under the silo
3. Shifting the location of the wagon loading unit due to lack of height underneath the
silo
In case of proposal in Fig. 07, a steel hopper with steeper slope has been inserted
within the concrete silo. The loading unit appropriate for Iron Ore has been directly
placed underneath the modified silo for wagon loading.
However, the methodology of erection of the silo and the arrangement of
supporting the steel silo (plates) need to be studied.
3.7.5 Silo Capacity Requirement
The Silo in the Wagon Loading Station will be started filling prior to
commencement of wagon loading operation and reclaiming system will continue
to operate during wagon loading to ensure supply of balance material to fill
the rake.
The relation of Silo capacity requirement with respect to effective reclaiming
capacity and wagon movement speed is shown in Fig.05. For instance, a silo of
2250 tonnes is adequate if effective reclaiming rate is 1250 TPH (i.e. rated
1800 TPH @ 70% efficiency) for loading a rake of 3500 tonne in one hour, i.e.
when a rake moves at 0.65 km / hour..
Equipment will be sized to receive material from conveyors at the rated load
for continuous wagon loading while the rake is in motion.
The performance of the Terminal is critically dependent on the performance of
the despatch system.
The capacity of single track In-motion Wagon Loading Station depends on
actual train loading time,
minimum gap required between two consecutive loading cycles due to
various reasons not related to cargo handling operation.
For instance, a silo with 1500 tonne capacity will be adequate to load a rake
of 3500 tonnes in one hour if the effective reclaiming rate is 2000 TPH and will

be ready to load the next rake in 45 minutes, i.e. frequency could be minimum
1 hour 45 min.
Even if the frequency of rake loading is 2 hours, the Facility will have the
capability to load 10 to 12 rakes per day.
Hence, key factor is reclaiming rate, higher the reclaiming capacity (despatch
capacity) lower is the silo size and time gap between two rake loading cycles..
3.8 Stacker/Reclaimers in Stockyard
3.8.1 Capacity
Two existing Stacker/Reclaimers are rated for stacking and reclaiming at
2400TPH and 1800 TPH (as understood) respectively for Coal. It will be necessary
to change stacking capacity of the machine to

5000 TPH (rated) for Iron Ore
in order to match the ship unloading capacity at the berth.
Similarly as mentioned in Section 3.7.5, the reclaiming capacity (dispatch capacity)
shall be increased to enable the Wagon Loading Station to have 2 hours loading
cycle, i.e. capability to commence wagon loading on two consecutive rakes in two
hours.
■ Reclaiming Capacity
Hence the effective reclaiming capacity of the Stacker/ Reclaimer is expected
to be in the range of 2000 (both for Iron Ore and Coal) for TPH (refer Fig.05)
where the corresponding silo capacity requirement is about 1500 tonnes (both
for Iron Ore and Coal). Considering reclaiming efficiency as 70%, the rated
reclaiming capacity shall be about 2800 TPH, say 3000 TPH.
Boom Outreach
With boom outreach of 33m, there will be limitations in building and reclaiming the
extended width of the stockpiles as explained in Section 3.6 and shown in Fig.04.
With the revised stack width of 55m, the boom outreach needs to be extended to
about 51m for full coverage. This will ensure building the stockpiles to the required
width and limit left-over cargo to about 5%. The boom length should be about 48
m minimum.
3.8.2 New Stacker / Reclaimer
Because of the necessity of capacity increase and longer boom length the existing
equipment shall be replaced with new equipment for building the system capability
of sustained dispatch of rakes upto 10 to 12 per day..
Changing the track centre required for stability of the Stacker / Reclaimer with
extended boom and higher capacity can be provided using the existing piles at the
stockyard. A track centre of 9 m is envisaged.
Alternatively, if capability of sustained daily despatch in the order of 10 to 12
rakes are not required, existing Stacker / Reclaimer may be examined for
modification for handling of Iron Ore and increased in capacity assuming boom
extension is not feasible.
If capacity increase of the existing Stacker / Reclaimer is not at all feasible,
effective dispatch rate to silo can possibly be maintained at the level of 1800 TPH,
the rated capacity of the existing Pipe Conveyor instead of 1250 TPH (reclaiming
capacity @ 1800 TPH with 70% efficiency) by combining reclaiming output with

direct loading from berth. However, such a combination of operations, reclaiming,
pushing of cargo at the extended stockyard by payloader and direct loading from
berth in a calibrated manner is though feasible but considered not sustainable.
Note: Discussions with the supplier could not be held to understand the engineering
limitations of the existing Stacker / Reclaimer for the anticipated changes brought
above, such as, capacity enhancement, outreach extension and handling of Iron
Ore.
3.9 Belt Conveyor System
3.9.1 Receiving Conveyors
The existing receiving belt conveyors have been upgraded recently by increasing
their speeds to match the ship unloading capacity.
Receiving and Stacking Conveyors (J1C1, J2C1, J3C1, J4C1, J5C1) as existing:
a) Belt Width 1600 mm
b) Trough 35 deg.
c) Speed 4.6 m/sec.
d) Rated Capacity (as understood)
3000 TPH (for Coal)
These conveyors match the ship unloading rates (Case I) discussed in Section 3.5.1.
Iron Ore being of higher density than Coal, existing belt width of 1600 mm will
have enough reserve cross-section to carry Iron Ore even at higher capacity than
5000 TPH. However, Coal, with lower density than Iron Ore, will require wider belt
than 1600 mm to carry 4000 TPH matching the Unloader capacity at berth.
Following changes will be required in the receiving conveyors if these are to be
enhanced to convey Coal and Iron Ore at 4000 TPH and 5000 TPH respectively
(ref. Case II & III in Section 3.5.1):

If the receiving conveyor system is to be designed for 4000 TPH Coal, it will require
either
a) change of belt width from the existing 1600 mm to 1800 mm along with other
associated components, like stringer frame, wider pulleys, chutes, etc., which will
involve more cost and time for implementation, or
b) increasein belt speed to ~5.4 m/sec of the existing conveyor operating Coal
with more than 4.6 m/sec. is not desirable.
c) Increase of belt speed to 4.9 m/ sec is a feasible option
As such, it is proposed to operate the system at capacity of 4000 TPH for Coal with
belt width of 1600 mm but changing the trough from 35 deg to 45 degby
changing the brackets of idlersand enhancing the speedfrom ~4.6 to 4.9 m/sec(this
with the fill factor of 100% @ design capacity which is acceptable). In order to
avoid wear at transfer points, it is proposed to operate Iron Ore at lower speed of
~2.6 m/sec.
To achieve the dual speeds, following options have been considered:
i) Through Fluid Coupling: Reliability of achieving the desired speedsis doubtful
though the suppliers claim their products can meet the speed parameters. The
feedback of Grafix is not achievable for the application envisaged herein.

ii) VFD Drive Control: It is workablesolution but it needs elaborate electrical
arrangement which needs additional space and time to implement.
iii) Hydraulic Drive: Least space occupying, reliable in achieving required speed
variation and less installation time.
iv) Dual Speed Electric Mmotor: This is a workable solution but needs change of
drive pulley to achieve the required speeds. For soft starting the drive,CST can
be integrated with each unit.
At this stage it is proposed to consider hydraulic drive units for the application.
However, further detailed analysis will be carried out during detailed engineering
with specific intention for reducing shutdown period.
3.9.2 Despatch Conveyors
Existing despatch conveyors comprise the following:
a) Conveyors J6C1 & J7C1
Belt Width 1400 mm
Trough 35 deg.
Belt Speed 4.2 m/sec.
Capacity Rated : 1800 TPH (Coal)
Design : 2200 TPH
b) Pipe Conveyor
Pipe Dia 550 mm (2100 mm wide belt)
Belt Speed 4.5 m/sec.
Capacity Rated : 1800 TPH (Coal)
Design : 2200 TPH
Drive With VFD Control
The pipe conveyor is undergoing trial runs and is to be set right and commissioned
at the required capacity.
The despatch conveyors, since they work in conjunction with the Stacker/Reclaimer,
are governed by the existing reclaiming capacity (1800 TPH),if the same
Stacker/Reclaimers are retained, refer Section 3.8.2. These conveyors will be
common for handling Iron Ore and Coal.
Iron Ore being heavier material, it will have lower fill factor on troughed belts and
also in the pipe conveyor for the required capacity.However, no advantage would
be derived due to limitations in handling number of rakes/day, by increasing the
capacity of conveyors unless reclaiming capacity is enhanced. (Ref. Section
3.7&3.8).

Pipe Conveyor needs to be modified or preferably replaced with matching
capacity of reclaiming system if new Stacker / Reclaimer, as recommended is
adopted to achieve sustained enhancement of the Terminal capacity.
3.9.3 Bypass Conveyor for Direct Despatch
It has been planned to provide connectivity of receiving conveyors with the
despatch conveyors for direct despatch of cargo unloaded at berth. A new bypass
conveyor J3C1 in Junction House JH3, via a new belt feeder, will discharge on
conveyor J7C1, which has been extended to feed to the pipe conveyor.
The capacity of bypass system, which is yet to be implemented, has been planned
with matching capacity of thedespatch conveyors, i.e. 1800 TPH.
Part cargo will be diverted to stockyard in Transfer Tower JH2, when unloading
rate at berth is higher than 1800 TPH. A belt weigher on conveyor J3C1 will be
installed to control the feed rate at the bypass conveyor.
The planned drive units will be replaced with hydraulic motors for speed variation.
3.10 Observations and Conclusion
Considering that the terminal is in operation and modification required for the
enhancement not only to be cost effective but also with minimum changes in the
existing system, requiring least implementation time, the following observations are
summarised based on the findings discussed in the foregoing sections.
a) Terminal Capacity
i. Ship unloading Capacity
Install new 2 nos Bridge Type Grab Unloaders brought fully assembled,
each of rated capacity of 5000 TPH with Iron Ore and 2000 TPH with
Coal
Expected throughput at berth is in the range of 9 to 10 MTPA. For Coal
and 12 to 13 MTPA throughput for Iron Ore
Extend the berth ConveyorJ1C1by 80 m at the tail end
Berth operation will continue with the existing system when Unloaders will
be made ready for initial dry run at the north-west end.
Conveyor extension will be carried out while new Unloaders will be
interfaced with the berth conveyor assuming the port is deepened
immediately (otherwise the conveyor extension may be differed since it is
required for Capesized ships handling steel product is discontinued at the
berth).

b) Stockyard: Enhance stockyard capacity by extending width of two side piles
using payloaders (provided steel export is shifted to alternative berth; the
existing stationary wagon loading arrangement will be retained until silo
modification as proposed for Iron Ore loading in the conceptual drawing Fig.
07is undertakenor it is decided that the terminal will be limited to only coal
handling and pipe conveyor capacity need not be enhanced)
c) Stacker/Reclaimer
OPTION-1:
i. Retain boom length.Payloaders will be used to spread the stockpile to wider
width.
ii. Enhance boom conveying capacity to match stacking conveyor capacity
(4000 TPH) for Coal enhancing the speed. The corresponding Iron Ore
capacity will be 5000 TPH (feasibility to be established with the supplier).
iii. Reclaiming capacity to be retained at 1800 TPH. This will be applicable for
both Iron Ore and Coal (feasibility to be established with the supplier due
to likely change of bucket size and type, variable speed of bucket wheel)
OPTION-2:
i. Replace Stacker/ Reclaimer to suit the requirement.
ii. Capacity selection shall be on the basis of Fig-05, i.e. effective reclaiming
rate as 2000 TPH implying rated reclaiming capacity of 2800 TPH (say,
3000 TPH) assuming 70% efficiency.
ii. Track centers shall be increased as required say 9 m using the pile
foundations.
d) Pipe Conveyor: Replace if option 2 of Stacker/ Reclaimer is adopted.
e) Wagon Loading: If Iron Ore handling is a possibility, modification of the
existing silo as shown in conceptual drawing Fig. 07is required.

Water current in the area are generally less than 1 Knot and max current
velocity of 0.5m/sec has been considered in the design of existing structure.
f) Temperature & Relative humidity
The location of Mormugao is such that there is little variation in the atmosphere
temperature and it has constantly high humidity. The maximum temperature
varies from about 28 deg in January to 32 deg in May and the minimum
temperature varies from about 21 deg in January to 28 deg in May. The mean
percentage of relative humidity is about 83% for the year. It is about 92%
during August and September and 75% during December.
The temperature variation of +15 deg C between Superstructure & Substructure
with reference to the temperature at the time of construction is considered.
4.2.2 Soil Parameters
A series of bore holes have been made along the berth alignment. Nearly all the
bore holes along this line exhibit very soft to soft marine clay thickness varying from
3 to 13 M with 'N' value in the range of 0 to 4 followed by stiff to very stiff clay
with 'N' value varying between 6-28 &undrained Cohesion Cw=1 to 2 Kg/cm2.
Medium dense to dense layer starts thereafter with 'N' value between 13 - 50
&ø=35 deg. Very dense layer underlays this layer with 'N' value more than 50 &
highly weathered to moderately weathered rock lies thereafter.

The deck level at jetty is + 4.72 m CD.
4.2.4 Design Loads
a) Load from Ship Unloader
The berth has been checked for new unloader with each wheel load as 34T @
1.2m spacing, 18 wheels per corner and found safe. Extra strengthening may
need be done in case of parking area which will be assessed during detailed
engineering after the receipt of load information from the successful bidder of
Unloader.
During Offloading of new unloader from sea side, the berth configuration shall
be shared with the unloader manufacturers. The offloading shall be place along
cross beam location with supporting arrangement at piles. The deck loading is
restricted to 5t/sq.m.
b) Live loads
Main Jetty: Uniformly distributed live load of 5.0 t/sq.m has been considered in
the design of the berth.
In present scenario the live load is restricted to 1.0 t/sq.m on both side of
unloader for a distance of 1.0m in operating zone which is normally the case
during operation.
c) Berthing Force
The berth has been designed for the berthing energy of ship 70,000 DWT
calculated based on provisions of IS 4651 ( Part-Ill-1974) with an approach

of 2.5m from the jetty edge and shall be of 150 t capacity.
4.2.5 Steel Structure- Conveyor Gallery & Transfer Tower
Referring the drawings of the existing structures made available by SWPL, it is
observed that the structural strength is not adequate to handle the loads of Iron
ore, hence these need to be strengthened. A typical strengthening arrangement
of gallery is shown in Drg No.A-111-SKC-01. The details will be worked out
during detailed engineering. Similarly the transfer towers will require
strengthening due to increase in belt pull and modification at drive floor level.
Details of foundations are not available and it is presumed that the existing
foundations are suitable, and will be able towithstand the increased loads;
hence no cost for strengthening of foundations is considered.

.0Time Implementation:
The lead time required for modifications of existing facilities for the
proposed enhancement , which will influence the completion time, are as
follows:
Description
Completion Time
in Months
(from the date of
starting the detailed
engineering)
1. Bridge type Unloader (refer FIG-01)
15 months from
placement of order
2. Berth ( changing fenders,lay rails,provide storm anchors/jacking points
10
3. Silo and loading arrangement for In-motion Wagon Loading System
12
4. Modification of Conveyor System, Electrical System, Structural Strengthening of existing Gallery and Junction Towers
10
5. Stacker/Reclaimers( taking up modification of one Stacker/ Reclaimer at one time.
10
It is prudent that modification/upgrading of Stacker/Reclaimersis carried out
by the equipment supplier.
Modifications of the existing system ( Berth, Conveyor system,associated
strengthening of Galleries,Transfer towersetc) may be carried out as far as
possible, during free time available between the ship arrivals and wherever

feasible during operation. However, hardly any modification of the dispatch
can be undertaken without shutdown.
If Silo is modified, as suggested, for handling of Iron Ore, the wagon
loading shall continue using the stationary wagon loading system and
Stacker / Reclaimer replacement shall be carried out in phases.
It is expected that the downstream facility beyond waterfront can be
completed in phased manner over a period of about 20 months, Stacker /
Reclaimer supply being the long lead item. It is assumed that switching to
dual speed drive unit using hydraulic drive may take about 2 days per
Transfer Tower.
