Ships Agency Port Hedland

VertomCory Port Hedland Port Agency Office

Reduce delays at Australia's largest bulk export port from VertomCory's dedicated Port Hedland office.

VertomCory Port Hedland provides port agency and husbandry for the constant flow of iron ore carriers through the inner and outer harbours, which together export over 500 million tonnes of Pilbara iron ore annually — the highest tonnage of any Australian port.

The team manages BHP, Fortescue, Roy Hill, and other mining company vessel schedules alongside ABF customs, DAFF biosecurity, and Pilbara Ports Authority formalities daily. The office also covers Broome.

Smooth Iron Ore Export Operations From VertomCory Port Hedland

Reduce delays at a port where vessel queue management, tidal inner harbour access, and loading coordination are critical to your turnaround. ABF customs clearance, vessel nominations through the PPA traffic management system, queue position allocation, and cargo documentation are managed by the local team ahead of arrival.

Anchorage queue tracking, tidal window scheduling for inner harbour access (which restricts vessel movements to specific tidal states), and loading programme updates are communicated throughout the waiting and loading period.

VertomCory Port Hedland covers the world's largest iron ore port with dedicated Pilbara expertise built up through daily operations at this high-throughput facility.

Keep the call compliant with Australian biosecurity, Pilbara Ports environmental, and mining company terminal-specific requirements at every stage. Documentation, environmental monitoring, dust management, and iron ore quality certification are managed on your behalf.

Keep Your Crew Looked After at Port Hedland

Get specialist local support from agents on the ground with Port Hedland Airport offering connections for crew rotations.

Stores, provisions, spares, Cash to Master, crew changes, and medical assistance are sourced through established Pilbara contacts. The office also covers Broome for livestock, supply, and general cargo vessel calls on the Kimberley coast.

Consolidate your Port Hedland operations through one local team, with 24/7 availability and regular updates on queue position, tidal access, and loading progress.
