The recent call of MV 'JlN MING' at Kwlnana resulted in the largest ever loaded quantity of any cargo at Kwìnana Bulk Berth No.2 (KBB2).

The 'JIN MING' departed KBB2 at 1750hrs 01/01/2013 with a record tonnage of 52,656MT of Iron Ore Fines bound for China.

Cargo was loaded in 36 hours and the vessel sailed with a departure draft of 11.70m.

This eclipsed the previous records for KBB2 (also held by Polaris)  loaded onboard 'JlA XlANG SHAN' on 22/01/2012 & 50,146MT loaded onboard  'JIN XIANG'.

Ship Agency Services works very closely with shipper Polaris Metals, and the Fremantle Port Authority to maximise the available draft for all vessels using the ports Dynamic Under Keel Clearance (DUKC) system.
