One of the largest industrial and economic projects in the history of the state, the Kochi Deep Sea Port project, is once again the subject of heated discussion. With significant modifications, Cochin Port is attempting to resurrect the ideal project that was put on hold a decade ago. Initially, the Port Authority is concentrating on creating a multi-user.

Cochin Fisheries Harbor upgrading and a liquid terminal backup region. Cargo planning, land use, warehousing, connectivity, cruise possibilities, future fuels, etc. will all be covered in the new comprehensive master plan. An estimated Rs 12,000 crore to Rs 15,000 crore would be spent on the project.

Major corporations are negotiating technical and investment interests with the Port Authority. The project will be carried out through a public-private collaboration as part of the Cochin Port Trust’s Vision 2040. On both sides of the approach channel to the Cochin Port, west of Fort, the massive port project is being planned.

Both Puthuvype and Kochi. The North Breakwater will be 4,200 meters long and the South Breakwater will be 2,200 meters long in the first phase of the dream project, which will be carried out in two stages. Even the biggest cargo ships in the world will be able to reach this section because it will be more than 20 meters deep.

The Outer Harbor will be the primary location for refinery-petrochemical companies, logistics parks, container terminals, and sizable warehouses. When the Outer Harbor arrives, the existing depth of 14.5 meters will rise to over 20 meters, allowing for the addition of more motherships to the Kochi Port beyond Vizhinjam.

Since the amount currently spent on dredging will be cut in half annually, the Cochin Port’s survival also depends on the Outer Harbor.
