ARCHEAN CHEMICALS INDUSTRIES LIMITED


BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT

1.1 About Project Proponent

Archean Chemical Industries Limited is an industry leading manufacturer of specialty chemicals. Archean
Chemical Industries Limited (ACIL), a part of Archean Group. The activities of the group can be classified
into 5 areas – Mining & Minerals, Industrial Salt, Building Materials, Shipping, Industrial Chemicals and
Fertilizers.

Archean Chemical Industries limited is operating a Marine Chemicals Complex with an investment of Rs
1200 Crores at Hajipur in Kutch district, Gujarat, where it will manufacture Sulphate of Potash (SOP),
Industrial Grade Salt and Bromine through conversion of naturally available brine flowing over marine
mineral deposits at Hajipir in the Greater Rann of Kutch district, Gujarat. It will be among the first in India
to manufacture SOP, a key ingredient in several fertilizers. Sojitz Corporation (Sojitz), Japan is the other
equity partner in this Project. Also Government of Gujarat has allocated 60,000 Acres of Land to ACIPL in
Greater Rann of Kutch. ACIPL is planning to export approx. 4.8 Million Tonnes of Salt as a by-product by
year 2022-23 and envisages the export of around 7 Million tonnes of Salt by 2030.

1.2 About the project

Archean Chemical Industries Limited (ACIL) is planning to develop captive jetty at Budh Bandar near
Koteshwar in Kutch. It is located about 160 km Northwest of Bhuj, Gujarat. The site is located inside Kori
Creek, Gulf of Kutch Gujarat. The promoter has a vision to develop a captive jetty and associated
infrastructure in this location to serve the purpose of exporting salt.

Looking to the non-availability of ports in near vicinity and to the scale of export potential, it is imperative
for ACIL to have dedicated captive facilities for the export of its products to Global market. ACIL plans to
develop a salt terminal along with supporting infrastructure facilities at the proposed location to handle
targeted cargo in phased manner.

1.3 Location

Proposed project is located on the West Coast of India in Gulf of Kutch about 160 Km west of Bhuj in
District Kutch of Gujarat state. Proposed Terminal site is about 30 Nautical Miles Northeast of existing
Jakhau Port. Proposed site is located at Approx.Lat 23˚ 43’ 33” N, Long 68˚ 34’ 43” E, falling in Lakhpat
Taluka.

1.4 Development plan of Jetty

 L shaped offshore jetty of 301.5 m x 25.5 m in natural draft of -7.0 m CD


 Approach Trestle - 500 m long X 11.5 m wide
 Approach Bund – 990 m long X 11.5 m wide
 Stockpile development for storage of Salt
 A Road Link to SH 42.
 Conveyor streams connecting the stockyards and berth
 Support Back up Infrastructure for operations and
 Maintenance of the Terminal (Buildings, services, utilities and amenities including Fire Fighting, safety
and
 Security systems and environment protection measures).
 Electric and Water supply systems, storm drainage and sewage systems.

1.5 Proposed cargo handling facility

ACIPL is planning to export approx 4.8 Million Tons of Salt as a by-product by year 2022-2023 and it
envisages the export of around 7 Million tons of Salt by 2030. Cargo at the proposed facilities is of Captive
nature. The main commodity is Salt and it is likely to be exported to Japan, Korea and other developed
countries. Phase wise assessment of the cargo volumes is presented in the following.

Table1: Cargo Handling


Commodity Year (2023 onwards) Year (2030 onwards)

Salt 4.8 MMTPA 7 MMTPA

Storage

The project is envisaged to handle 4.8 MMTPA of Salt. Salt is likely to be exported considering its market
requirements.

Cargo stockyard is considered to take care of uneven flow rate of incoming and outgoing salt traffic.
Stockyard is proposed to be located on western side of the jetty. Cargo is likely to be arrived by dumpers
and trucks. They will manually unload the material into stockyard and stock pile will generate with dozer &
excavator.
