In July last year, the tender was issued to finalise a new three-year dredging contract, mostly for maintaining the port's channel at the prevailing water depth, when the term of the existing three-year deal given to Van Oord India Pvt Ltd ended. The security clearance for the key requirements of the bidders before awarding dredging works in ports was delayed by several months and was finally granted in early March. The previous three-year dredging work was carried out by Van Oord India Pvt Ltd, the Indian unit of Dutch dredging firm Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contracting Co, for Rs 347 crore.
