Mundra Port, country’s largest private port developed by Adani Group, has set a new benchmark by unloading over 88000 MT of coal in 24 hours. This was made possible by simultaneous unloading of coal from three vessels; two of them were capsize vessels capable of carrying over 100000 MT coal.

The company deployed high capacity cranes, conveyer-belts and dumpers for evacuating the coal. This high productivity at Mundra coupled with virtually zero pre-berthing time and deep draft makes Mundra a port of choice for coal cargo bound for west and north India, according to a release.
