FMG Nicola’s maiden voyage into Port Hedland
Fortescue Metal Group’s (Fortescue) first Very Large Ore Carrier (VLOC), FMG Nicola, has arrived in Port Hedland to complete its maiden voyage from China. A natural extension of Fortescue’s supply chain, FMG Nicola is the first of eight VLOCs which are designed to complement Fortescue’s world class port infrastructure through maximising the tonnage per ship, improved loading rates, and safe manoeuvring within the port and the channel. When fully operational, the VLOC fleet will provide approximately 12 per cent of Fortescue’s total shipping requirements. Sharing the experience of the first voyage of Fortescue’s shipping fleet with the company’s Chairman Andrew Forrest, were sister Jane and brother David. http://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/fmg-nicolas-maiden-voyage-into-port-hedland/
