INTRODUCTION
Water Transportation is concerned with conveyance of people
and goods in vehicles that float upon water.
Waterways have great historic importance in the development of
civilizations and in the growth of nations.
Rivers and seas provided primitive man with his first facility for
mass transportation of goods.
Waterways can be classified broadly as Oceanic waterways and
inland waterways.

 Oceanic waterways are concerned with the conveyance of people and

goods primarily across the ocean between continents or island.
Inland waterways consist of water transportation on rivers, lakes and
canals within the main land.
River transportation became popular in India since 1855.
The total perennial waterways in India are 65,600 km out of which
41,600 km are of rivers and 24,000 km canals.

ADVANTAGES OF WATER
TRANSPORTATION
Around the world 82% of International trade in tons and 94% of
world trade in tons-kilometers are moved by shipping and thereby
through ports.
Specific function, objectives and the advantages derived from water
transportations facilities are summarized below:
Easiest and cheapest mode of communication by utilization of natural
surfaces of canals, rivers and oceans, as the element of friction during
traction and maintenance are less than road transport.
Require cheap manual, wind and steam motive power.
Higher load carrying capacity for bulky and heavy commodities.
Development of industry.
Development of commerce and expansion of trades.

 Development of agriculture.

Development of natural resources and their effective use.

Discovery of new island is possible.
Development of economic progress and international contact.
Provide enhanced mobility and promotes social and political
unity.
Assistance in the problem of national defense.

DISADVANTAGES OF WATER
TRANSPORTATION

It requires more time due to slow speed and circuitous routes. Final
docking stages require greater skill.
Mountainous rivers and waterfalls hinder water transportation.
Require better position fixing and obstruction detecting systems to
avoid surface collision.
Frequent storms results in great loss of life and material.
Rapid growth in demand which is more than the capacity of
existing facilities.
Vessels oil spillage, noise smoke and fumes cause pollution and
endanger marine lives.
Uncertainty problem, like energy shortage problem due to political
and natural causes.
Energy conservation concern because of energy problem of
transportation development.

MODERN TRENDS IN WATER

TRANSPORTATION
Integration of transportation system and the environment.
Application of system analysis.
Optimization using operations research techniques.
Computer application for data processing and analysis.
Minimization of energy use.
Increased utilization and efficiency of existing facilities.
Compatibility between water transportation and other modes
through the use of innovative equipments.

Kandla was declared as a

major port by the then
Transport Minister, the late
Lal Bahadur Shastri

1931

1975

1957

Maharao Khengarji III of Kutch

built an RCC jetty where ships
with draft of 8.8 meters could
berth round the year

The port sailed past the 10

million tonne milestone

The Offshore Oil Terminal was

commissioned at Vadinar when the
giant tanker Netaji Subhashchandra
Bose carrying 86,105 tonnes of
Crude Oil was brought in at the
First Single Buoy Mooring (SBM)

1955
The second oil jetty was
commissioned

The eighth cargo

jetty started

NEW GENERATION WHARF CRANES

CONTAINER HANDLING GANTRY

CRANES

KOLKATA / HALDIA

Old and established port with

promising hinterland,
0.045 million TEUs handled every
year,
Closer to land locked countries of
Nepal and Bhutan.

Acute shortage of space and

hence often congested,
Riverine Port - severe draft
restrictions ,
Absence of efficient
container handling systems,
No possibility of further
expansions.

VISAKHAPATNAM

In the middle of the fastest developing region in India.

Efficient container handling infrastructure
Ample space and un-congested
Deepest container terminal on the East Coast of India
Possibility for further expansions
Well connected to central, eastern, and southern India both
by road and rail
Feasible to cater to 5 ICDs across India and Nepal
Proximity to the straits of Malacca

CHENNAI

Efficient container handling infrastructure

1 million plus throughput
New capacity added ( CITPL )
Hinterland with large manufacturing base
Presence of major Mainline and Feeder services
