SCI is the largest Tanker owner in India, with a well-diversified fleet of crude oil tankers consisting of all sizes: MR, LR-I, LR-II, Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC Tankers. SCI's Tanker tonnage paralleled the growth of Indian oil industry since the mid-1970s. Till late 1990s the tonnage predominantly catered to Indian crude oil and product transportation. This was done keeping in view the specific constraints of terminals/ports in India and infrastructural limitations like draft, availability of tankages, length/capacity of jetties, etc.
SCI's Tanker Commercial Department looks after scheduling and deployment of Tankers for feeding crude oil to various Indian oil refineries. Lighterage operations on the east and west coasts are also undertaken to facilitate quick turnaround of Tankers, which otherwise cannot call on ports due to port restrictions/limitations.
The department also ensures commercial deployment of in-chartered tonnage, to meet its obligations of lifting cargo under the Contract of Affreightment (COA).
SCI is presently the major Bulk Carrier operator in India, with an assortment of 15 Bulk Carriers, spanning the Handymax, Supramax, Panamax and Kamsarmax sizes of vessels. The average fleet age of the Bulk Carriers is about 9 years, but individual vessels range from 8 years to 10 years in age.
At the time of acquisition, the vessels had been ordered after carefully considering the need and utility of these vessels for India-centric trade. However, there is no physical constraint for these vessels cross-trading worldwide. They carry a variety of cargo like iron ore, coal, coke, grain, fertilizer, steel products, plywood, bauxite, etc.
The SCI is the only Indian shipping company providing overseas Liner Break-bulk services to the Indian trade. The SCI arranges carriage of Break-bulk cargoes on a space charter basis from various regions across the globe including USA and Far East. This is offered for imports and exports in & out of India, which include shipments of Over-Dimensional Cargoes (ODC)/ Project cargoes/Heavy Lift cargoes/IMO Class I Cargoes and containers.
The SCI has on its panel many reputed forwarders/ Shipping Lines having their own regular service in different sectors. This enables the SCI to cater to the needs of the customers to provide timely shipments and also shipments from every part of the world.
The SCI’s Breakbulk Department also makes arrangements for shipment of containerised cargo from those ports, where SCI does not have a regular container service. These arrangements are made on slot charter basis with other major container operators.

Passenger Services
Domestic Passenger-cum-Cargo Services
In addition to international operations, SCI operates and manages 27 domestic passenger and cargo transportation services between the Mainland- Andaman & Nicobar group of islands and inter-island vessels, on behalf of the Government of India.
SCI is a pioneer in the field of lighterage operations in India. A dedicated "Lighterage Cell" was set up in 1975, acquired the necessary equipment and physically conducted open sea Ship-to-Ship (STS) lighterage operations on the coast of India.
Offshore STS lighterage operations were thus introduced on the Indian coast by SCI in 1975 developed to maximise utilisation of large tankers which could not enter the port at their fully laden draft. The operations soon became the backbone of crude oil transportation and supplies to Indian refineries.
The Shipping Corporation of India (SCI) is India's largest shipping company with a rich history and diverse fleet. Learn about SCI's commitment to growth, innovation, and social responsibility as it continues to navigate the dynamic world of shipping.
