  1. PORTS, SHIPPING & SHIP-BUILDING IN INDIA GeetuJoshi Director Ministryof Shipping

  2. Vision of the Ministry of Shipping A Vibrant Economy - Huge market with a billion plus population and impressive GDP growth. Ports play a vital role in overall economic development. About 95% by volume and 70% by value of the country’s international trade is through maritime transport. Aim is to navigate and steer the Indian maritime sector realistically into the premier maritime nations.

  3. PORT SECTOR – Present Status • MAJOR PORTS • Major Ports are under the administrative control of Central Government. • 6 Ports on East and 6 Ports on West Coast • Handle about 58% of total seaborne traffic • All Major Ports are International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS) compliant • Capacity as on 31-03-2013 : 750.31 Million Tonnes • Traffic handled during 2012-13:545.68 Million Tonnes

  4. PORT SECTOR – Present Status • NON-MAJOR PORTS • Non-Major Ports are under the Maritime State Governments • Capacity as on 31-03-2012 : 630 Million Tonnes • Traffic handled during 2012-13 :389.20 Million Tonnes • No of Notified Ports : 176 • 35 Ports are International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS) compliant – handling EXIM Trade

  5. Capacity Augmentation and Mechanization – 2012-13

  6. Shipping sector in India • Indian flag shipping tonnage has been growing steadily, over the years and it is about 10.45 million GT, now, with 1,158 ships, both for foreign voyages and coastal operations, under its flag. • India ranks 16th globally, by dead weight tonnage (DWT) in world shipping fleet and accounts for about 1.5% of the total global DWT.

  7. Category-wise Indian Overseas Tonnage as on 31-12-2012 India’s overseas tonnage as on 31-3-2013 was 358 ships of 9160044 GT

  8. Transport of goods by Waterwaysa comparison of present scenario

  9. Shipbuilding Industry in India There are 8 public and 20 major private sector shipyards in India Shalimar Hooghly Docks Gardenreach Alcock Ashdown Mazagon Hindustan Shipyard Goa Shipyard Cochin Shipyard Main Public Shipyards *List on Map not comprehensive** Shipyards Depicted on Map Main Private Shipyards • Out of 28 shipyards, 2 are under the Ministry of Shipping, 4 are under the Ministry of Defence, 2 are under the control of State Governments and rest in private sector • ABG, Bharati, L&T and Pipavav are the main private sector shipyards in India**

  10. Foreign Investor Friendly policies in Shipbuilding No CAP on FDI: 100% FDI in Shipbuilding • The government of India permits 100% Foreign Direct Investment in Shipbuilding • Other government concession include: duty free import of raw materials, machinery and equipment for ships constructed/ repaired in custom bond areas

  11. COCHIN SHIPYARD LTD. • Set up in 1969 as the first greenfield shipyard in India. • Commenced shipbuilding in 1975 and ship repair in 1981. • Has a strong collaboration with Norwegian companies • CSL has concluded 35 shipbuilding projects with RRM and Vard AS designs. • Approx Value of business created due to association with Norwegian firms in past 8 years is NOK 7 Billion

  12. Vision 2020: Maritime Sector • Estimated Traffic in all ports including non-major ports - 2495 MMT • Total Capacity in major and non-major ports – 3130 MMT • Total proposed Investments in major and non-major ports by 2020 – US $ 10.67 billion (Private investment- 95%) • Shipping tonnage to increase to 43 million GT by 2020. • Share of India in shipbuilding to increase to 5% of the world market. • Promote use of Inland Waterways.

  13. POLICY INITIATIVES FOR PORT DEVELOPMENT: • Construction/Development of Deep-drafted berths, Cargo-specific specialized berths and mechanized berths • Installation of modern cargo handling equipment such as conveyors, higher capacity versatile mobile harbour cranes and container equipment • Replacement of old, out-dated low capacity cargo handling equipment with high capacity ultra modern equipment • Development of deep-drafted navigational channels with modern navigational equipment

  14. PROJECTS ON MODERNISATION OF PORT OPERATIONS • Vessel Traffic Management System (VTMS) • Surveillance System(CCTV) and Safety System • Comprehensive Computerization covering all activities/ERP Solution with Port Operation System (POS) • Port Community System (PCS) • Automatic Identification System(AIS) • Bio Metric Access Control/Access Control with boom barrier, turnstyle gates is being implemented • Container Scanners • Modern Gate-entry and Gate-out logistics systems

  15. Proposed Initiatives for promoting coastal shipping • Grant Scheme for Promoting Modal Shift • Rationalization of Taxes and duties • Facilitation of bank credit for procurement of vessels • Assured Cargo mechanism

  16. Proposed Policy Measures for supporting ship-building and shipping • Facilitating access to funds for construction of ships as well as for ship acquisition. • Long term cargo support scheme- by tie-ups between PSUs and the shipping companies. • Rationalising tax structure- creating an enabling environment for investment in the shipping and ship-building sector.

  17. Scope for collaboration in Coastal Shipping • Need to encourage coastal shipping • Potential for both cargo and passenger movement. • Ro-ro vessels can be used in coastal movement for which infrastructure needs to be improved. • Super speed ferries for transport in the island states, along the coast line and with neighbouring countries. • LNG fuel based vessels to be encouraged.

  18. Collaborative Areas in shipbuilding 1. Ship Design • Ship design capabilities with shipyards not fully established • Reason:Small scale of shipbuilding industry in India • Shipyards currently procure ship designs from China, Korea, Japan and Norway. • Basic Ship Design remains a major area of development for Indian shipyards – foreign collaboration improve capabilities

  19. Collaborative Areas in shipbuilding 2. Ancillary Development • Currently, 40- 70% of ancillary components and materials used in shipbuilding are imported • Reason:Shipbuilding industry in India has not reached critical size • Currently, Indian shipyards procure ancillary components from China, Korea, Japan and Norway. • Collaboration on ancillary development will reduce costs and increase access to quality ancillary components for Indian shipyards

  20. Collaborative Areas in Shipbuilding 3. Production Technology • Currently, shipbuilding is less automated and more labor intensive than the industry in other countries (Korea and Japan) • Reason:Current Demographics and Market Size in India • Collaboration on providing access to latest ship construction technology to further improve output of Indian shipyards

  21. Increased collaboration with international players necessary-Way Ahead... Co-ordinated and integrated Maritime development and to create 3.2 billion tonnes capacity by 2020 by optimization of public and private investments and to provide world class quality of Port and Shipping Services by attaining international standards of productivity and efficiency …
