Mundra is India's largest private port and the flagship bunkering location on the Indian west coast. Operated by a leading Indian private port group & SEZ Limited, Mundra offers single-point supply of all major marine fuel grades — VLSFO, HSFO, LSMGO and MGO — through a dedicated bunkering infrastructure that includes 12-inch and 16-inch pipelines connecting the leading Indian private bunker operator's 460+ TKL liquid terminal directly to virtually all operational jetties at pumping rates up to 350 MT/hour.
Mundra Port sits on the northern shore of the Gulf of Kutch, 80 km south-east of Kandla. Its multi-purpose terminals feature nine berths across 1.8 km of quay length, with alongside depths ranging from 9 to 16.5 metres — accommodating vessels up to 150,000 DWT directly at berth. Mundra is one of only three Indian ports capable of handling Capesize bulk carriers (the others being Krishnapatnam and Gangavaram). The port handles containers, coal, automobiles, crude oil and bulk cargo, serving as a critical gateway for northern and western India trade.
Mundra is associated with Kandla Port — major private port, 80 km south-east of kandla. Many vessel operators evaluate Mundra and Kandla together when planning Indian port calls. See the Kandla bunker guide for context on the broader supply area.

the leading Indian private bunker operator operates the in-port fuel infrastructure as India's leading private bunker supplier. The setup is unique in India: all three commercial marine fuel grades (VLSFO, HSFO, LSMGO) are available at Mundra with single-point ordering and direct pipeline supply to most jetties. HSFO supply was launched specifically to serve the growing scrubber-fitted fleet calling Mundra on Asia-Europe rotations. From Mundra, the leading Indian private bunker operator additionally supplies Kandla, Sikka, Vadinar and Jamnagar anchorages via its own and chartered barge fleet.
