I am trawling through the pages of the internet trying to find a directory or list of Chinese ports with information on discharge rates for bulk cargoes. After much frustration I have come up with nothing except this fantastic forum > so it has not been a complete waste of time.

Specifically, I am after the discharge rate at Shanghai for 30,000 mt of HMS scrap with a gear-less vessel.

As expected the Shanghai ports site has nothing beyond some unhelpful information about how many square centimeters of land it covers. Bizarre.

Any help would be much appreciated. ■
