Oil operations for state-controlled Bharat Petroleum Corp (BPCL) will be disrupted for three days this month at the port of Jawaharlal Nehru due to planned construction work, shipping and logistics firm GAC said on Monday.
BPCL will restrict operations at its two loading berths at the port, closing one and reducing work at the second, for three days from March 21."This is due to the planned dismantling of the MS Structure platform," GAC said. "It will not be possible to handle any vessel at Berth LB-2 or any petroleum cargo vessel at LB-1 during this period."The two berths can handle 5.5 million tonnes, or 43.45 million barrels, of oil each year, according to the port's website.
