This throughput was a 2% decrease compared to the same month in 2018.

The total throughput for the 2019/20 financial year to date is 232Mt, which is an increase of less than 1% from the same time last year.

The Port of Port Hedland, which is the world's largest bulk export port, achieved a monthly throughput of 42.5Mt, of which 42Mt was iron ore exports. The monthly throughput was a 4% increase from October 2018.

 

Imports through the Port of Port Hedland totalled 225,000 tonnes, an increase of 37% from the same month in 2018.

The Port of Dampier delivered a total monthly throughput of 12.9Mt, a decrease of 16% from October 2018.
