APM Terminals to Invest Rs 35 Bn to Expand Pipavav Port

APM Terminals-owned Gujarat Pipavav Port (GPPL) will invest Rs 35 billion to nearly double its container and Ro-Ro cargo capacity, Managing Director Girish Aggarwal confirmed. The expansion has secured environmental clearance and includes a new 3.2 million tonne liquid jetty for very large gas carriers transporting LPG, expected to be operational by November–December 2026.

The port’s container handling capacity will rise by 0.8 million TEUs to reach 2.15 million TEUs, while Ro-Ro cargo capacity will increase from 2.5 lakh to 5 lakh car equivalent units (CEUs). Aggarwal added, “Between now and 2033, when the clearance expires, we aim to broadly double all our capacities.” L&T Geostructure and Van Oord India have been appointed for marine and dredging works.
