Technip Energies India Commissions Dahej Jetty, Enhancing Global Export Capabilities
Technip Energies India has commissioned its first captive jetty at Dahej, significantly boosting its export capabilities for large process modules. This strategic infrastructure enables direct sea transport for modules up to 4,000 metric tons, drastically reducing transit times from 15 days to 48-72 hours, cutting fuel costs by 60-70%, and lowering carbon emissions. The jetty, completed in seven months, reinforces India's role as a global manufacturing hub and enhances Technip Energies' international project execution, supporting the 'Make in India' initiative and improving global market competitiveness.
Technip Energies India has marked a significant milestone by commissioning its first captive jetty at its Modular Manufacturing Yard in Dahej, a move designed to substantially strengthen India’s position as a global manufacturing and export hub. This new infrastructure has already facilitated the dispatch of its initial large process module consignment to the Netherlands, serving a global energy client and reinforcing the company's commitment to international project execution under the 'Make in India' initiative.The Dahej jetty revolutionizes logistics by enabling the direct, seamless movement of oversized modules weighing up to 4,000 metric tons, bypassing the previous logistical challenges and limitations associated with road transport. This direct sea access dramatically improves operational flexibility and project execution timelines. The impact on efficiency is profound: transit time for shipments to global markets, such as North Europe via the Red Sea and Suez Canal, is slashed from approximately 15 days (by road) to just 48–72 hours. This efficiency also translates into significant fuel savings of 60–70%, leading to lower logistics costs and reduced carbon emissions, aligning with sustainability goals.Completed in an impressive seven months, the rapid execution of the jetty project underscores Technip Energies India’s strong engineering and project management expertise. This strategic asset integrates India more deeply into Technip Energies’ global modular execution network, positioning the facility to support large-scale module exports, improve delivery timelines for international projects, and enable participation in complex global energy and chemical ventures. Davendra Kumar, Managing Director, Technip Energies India and APAC, highlighted the jetty's role in enhancing India’s contribution to the company's global delivery network and supporting efficient execution of large-scale projects, ultimately boosting cost efficiency and competitiveness in the global market. The jetty is poised to support future modular manufacturing projects, aligning with the company's long-term sustainability and operational efficiency objectives.
