摘要: The Port of Port Kembla, managed by the Port Kembla Port Corporation, located less than 60 minutes drive south of Sydney Australia, is comprised of two harbours: the Inner Harbour and the Outer Harbour. The Outer Harbour of the port, being the original harbour, is now 103 years old and caters mostly for Handy and Panamax size vessels trading breakbulk and liquid cargos. The Inner Harbour of the port, being constructed in the mid 1960s, transacts the majority of the Port’s 24 million tonnes of bulk and breakbulk cargos including coal, grain, various ores, steel and containers. The Inner Harbour is also the site of the all the port’s major terminal and storage facilities. Ships using this harbour are typically of Panamax and Cape size capacities. Over the decades, the physical arrangement of the entry channels serving the two harbours combined with various empirical and generic ship handling methodologies led to shipping limits being imposed on the size of vessels allowed to transit the channels in both daylight and night time hours. The major navigation limitation driving these restrictions being the 87o entry turn from sea to the main harbour channel.
