Extension of Naval Jetty Phase-II at Naval Wharf Inaugurated

A major Naval project of ‘Extension of Jetty’ at the Naval Wharf was inaugurated by Chief of Materiel of Indian Navy Vice Admiral SR Sarma on 22 March 2021. Rear Admiral , Chief of Staff HQ Andaman and Nicobar Command Suraj Berry and Chief Engineer, Andaman & Lakshadweep Harbour Works TN Krishnamoorthy were present for the event.




The 230 meter long jetty is one of the larger marine infrastructure projects being undertaken at Andaman and Nicobar Command both in terms of magnitude and technical complexity. The jetty will enable mooring alongside of the Floating Dock and will significantly boost the ship berthing and maintenance capability of the Tri Service Command. The project was completed within stringent timelines of just about three years despite restrictions due to the nationwide Covid-19 lockdown in 2020.
