Dhamra, 19.07.2025: In a landmark achievement, Odisha has handled its largest ever imported coking coal parcel, with a massive 1,86,782 metric tonnes (MT) received at Dhamra Port. The consignment was imported by Tata Steel Ltd, one of India’s leading steel producers. The vessel, measuring 299.95 metres in length (LOA) with a beam of 50 metres and a maximum draft of 18.40 metres, showcased Dhamra Port’s capability to handle large vessels.

This milestone marks a significant moment in Odisha’s industrial and logistical capabilities, reinforcing Dhamra Port’s status as a premier deep-draft port on the eastern coast of India. The successful handling of this large parcel showcases the operational efficiency, world-class infrastructure, and growing cargo-handling capacity of the Adani-operated port. This development not only reaffirms the port’s role in supporting large-scale industrial operations but also highlights Odisha’s evolving stature as a gateway for global trade and raw material imports.

The successful handling of this record-breaking coking coal parcel is a testament to the seamless coordination between port authorities, shipping agencies, and industry partners, positioning Dhamra Port as a critical enabler of India’s steel sector and a driver of regional economic growth.
