NOTES
(A) The distance and speeds used for the calculations have been obtained from the 'Report' submitted by 'The Committee of Eminent Persons'(B) The Indian Oil Corporation tariffs effective from 1 March 2008 for various marine fuels per metric tonne (Mt) are as follows:(i) High Speed Diesel (HSD) for use in the SSCP = Rs. 27,384 + 23.43%VAT = Rs. 33,800/Mt.(ii) Heavy Oil (H.O.) for use in the Open Sea = Rs. 27,313 + 4% VAT = Rs. 28,405.5/Mt(C) The average fuel consumption has been taken as 1 Mt per hour (D) These calculations do NOT take into account the "Pilotage Rates" that are going to be levied for using the SSCP.(E) Based on current Pilotage Rates being levied at Major Ports in India, it is probable that circumnavigating Sri Lanka would be morecost effective.
