Paradip Port Launches ₹2,500 Crore Berth Mechanisation Project, Targets Full Automation by 2030

Date:

Paradip Port Authority (PPA) has announced a major investment of ₹2,500 crore to mechanize and modernize its berths, aligning with India’s push for port automation and efficiency. This ambitious project is aimed at transforming Paradip into a fully automated “smart port” by 2030, placing it at the forefront of India’s maritime infrastructure.

The investment will bring in cutting-edge equipment for berth mechanisation, allowing quicker and more efficient loading and unloading processes, ultimately reducing vessel turnaround times and enhancing cargo throughput. The mechanised berths will be equipped with advanced digital monitoring and control systems to ensure seamless operations and improved accuracy in cargo handling.

According to PPA Chairman P.L. Haranadh, the initiative is poised to set new standards for port operations in India, helping Paradip compete with global ports. “We aim to transform Paradip into a smart port that meets international standards in logistics and transport,” Haranadh stated.

This modernization aligns with India’s larger vision for a robust logistics ecosystem, aiming to position Indian ports as competitive players in the global trade network. Once fully automated, Paradip Port will be a key asset in boosting trade efficiency and supporting India’s economic growth trajectory.
