Overview
This five days executive training is targeted to provide an integrated outlook of Ports and Specialized Terminals for Dry bulk, Liquid bulk and container operations and their role as the most crucial link in logistics supply chain. There is a whole range of Dry/Liquid Bulk and Container Terminals and Ports from very basic barge loading / unloading systems connecting with anchorage operations to the most modern state-of-the-art loading / unloading terminals; depending upon market size and volume to be handled.
Ownership, operatorship and commercial aspect also vary based on users’ requirements and risk perceptions. On one hand; large scale ore/coal miners, oil companies, agro producers, fertilizer manufacturers, suppliers, users and traders tend to control the supply chain by using their own dedicated terminals; However, common user bulk terminals are also equally important and these common user terminals cater to requirements of a number of users requiring terminal services for their bulk cargo handling requirements.
In Container segment, top ship operators have container terminals which are built / operated by their own entities. This training program aims to enable participants to understand comprehensive process to develop ports and terminals from site selection to hinterland mapping, assessment of market potential, optimization of investment in cargo handling, storage and hinterland connectivity. The program also targets to explain steps involved in process of environment management, detailed project report, concession agreements and understanding other commercial terms for ports and terminals operations. Another objective of the workshop is to prepare the participants to excel in operations of ports and terminals for satisfaction of customers and all stake holders in order to achieve desired financial objectives and create value for the stakeholders.
