Floating structure due to its inherent advantages, is attractive solution and being encouraged by the ministry of ports, shipping and waterways.


The benefits of floating jetties over the traditional quay and glued concrete structure are as follows:

• It could be a cost-effective solution and far cheaper than conventional structure price.
• Setting of floating structure is far faster as compared to traditional jetties. Usually, floating structure are often inbuilt 6-8 months as compared to 24 months for conventional structure.
• Its environmental impact is minimal.
• Expansion are easily feasible because of modular construction techniques.
• It is well transportable just in case of reconfiguring of the port.
• It provides constant freeboard between jetties and boats.


Deployment of floating jetties, especially in location having an outsized, tidal range, where conventional quay pose problems during low water periods, is incredibly convenient. Floating jetties, at such location provide constant freeboard, eases embarkation of ships stores and simple unloading of fisherman’s catch. Its consequently results in increased productivity moreover as safety of the fisherman within the long term.


Ministry of port, shipping and waterways has successfully implemented some pilot projects within the recent past by following the international guiding principal. These include fitting of passenger floating jetties in Goa, water-aerodromes at Sabarmati River & at Sardar Sarovar dam (for the seaplane services) which are yielding of the result over 80 similar projects of the ministry are under strategy planning stage right along the coastline for overall development and upliftment of the coastal community.


A benchmark and standard specification at par with international standard are being evolved by the ministry in order that technical specifications of floating structure like floating jetties, water-aerodromes, floating marinas, fish landing facilities etc. so precise and stringent technical specifications are established.


The draft guidelines together with proposed specifications/schedule of technical requirements (SOTR) are issued for seeking the feedback and suggestions from the general public. The draft guidelines may be accessed on the link:

For which suggestion will be emailed to sagar.mala@in by 11.12.2020.
It has been a priority of the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s government to boost transparency within the government. The issuing of draft guidelines and seeking public feedback may be a progressive step within the same direction, which is able to benefit and prove a milestone for the upliftment of the coastal community within the long term.
