Port Agent Newcastle

Ship Agency Services at Newcastle

Keep your coal carriers on schedule at the world's largest coal export port with agents based locally.

VertomCory's Newcastle office provides port agency and husbandry for the massive coal carrier traffic moving through the Port of Newcastle's three coal terminals: NCIG, PWCS Carrington, and PWCS Kooragang.

Together they export over 160 million tonnes of Hunter Valley thermal and metallurgical coal annually to Asian and global markets.

The port also handles grain, bulk, container, and cruise traffic.

Streamlined Coal Export Operations at Newcastle

Reduce delays at a port where vessel queue management and terminal scheduling are critical to your turnaround. Australian Border Force customs clearance, HVCCC vessel nominations, queue position allocation, and cargo documentation are managed by the local team ahead of arrival.

The Hunter Valley Coal Chain Coordinator (HVCCC) system manages vessel scheduling across the three terminals, and the team coordinates your vessel's position in the queue, communicating estimated berthing times and any changes throughout the anchorage period.

Meet the requirements of Australian biosecurity, NSW EPA environmental, and Port of Newcastle Corporation requirements at every stage. Documentation, AQIS biosecurity clearance, coal quality certification, and terminal-specific environmental monitoring are managed on your behalf.

Looking After Your Crew at Newcastle

Call on specialist local support from agents on the ground, with Newcastle Airport (Williamtown) nearby for domestic connections and Sydney Airport approximately two hours south for international crew rotations.

Stores, provisions, spares, Cash to Master, and crew changes are coordinated through established Hunter Valley contacts. Medical assistance is available at John Hunter Hospital.

Run your Newcastle calls through one local team, with 24/7 availability and regular updates on queue position, loading progress, and departure timing.
