| Filyos, Turkey
|
| The possibility of constructing a coal and iron ore import facility at Filyos on the Black Sea coast of Turkey was considered by a team member at the request of a major steel production company. A potentially viable scheme was developed to satisfy the steel company’s requirements which suggested that a port be developed in stages to satisfy the trade flows. An embryonic consortium was identified and indicated their interest in the project. A presentation was made to the steel company which considered the matter seriously. This project did no proceed as it was not commercially viable within the planning consents imposed by DLH.

| Okha, in the State of Gujarat, India
|
| Retained to consider the development of a new port facility at Okha, in the State of Gujarat, India. The original request came from an industrial company which wished to export Soya Bean Meal (SBM) more quickly than the present system could manage. A proposal to construct a new terminal at the Port of Okha was developed which would ensure that ship waiting time for this cargo would be reduced to about 5 days instead of the 40 to 60 days experienced at that time. The commercial viability of the project appeared to be good and could have gone ahead with private sector funding, it did not proceed due to the interests of one of the parties involved in the project structuring.
