Fire has broken out at the Kwinana Bulk Jetty, causing significant structural damage to the facility.
An assessment by Fremantle Ports has determined that the main damage was to the import system conveyor, associated transfer towers and a shed used for storing fertiliser.
Fremantle Ports has said that, with safety as a continuing priority, planning is underway to recommence shipping operations as soon as possible, subject to a number of assessments and conditions being satisfied.
Fremantle Ports also said that it will provide its customers with progress updates and advise when berth operations can resume.
