With the placing of 2 Laser Range Finders on long vessels, the restrictions for turning around vessels over 270 m LOA in the night were removed recently at JN Port. With the experience gained from using these Laser Range Finders and following the hiring of a 60T Bollard Pull Tug, the Port has decided to handle vessels of up to 320 m LOA with effect from October 1.
However, the maximum draughts and displacements will continue to be as per the existing practice. Based on the experience, this will be reviewed for handling of such vessels during the 2012 monsoon, according to an official release.
