But during the 1960s, trade through the docks was badly hit through the closure of all the nearby collieries including the Wellesley in 1967 and the Lochhead pit at Coaltown of Wemyss in 1970. Total cargo handled in 1982 was 162,916t (128,971t inwards, and 33,945t outwards). Methil's LOCODE is GBMTH. On its completion Methil was Scotland’s largest coal port. Description.

Area: total water 16.4ha, total land 16.6ha. In the early 1970s, the exploitation of oil in the North Sea began to take over from the Fife Coalfields as Methil's main source of employment. The scheme required construction, often in formidable weather, of a curved seawall in mass concrete some 3600 ft long and in places 41 ft high from rock foundation to quay level. In 1982 over 27.5 million tonnes of cargo (of varied types) passed through the Firth of Forth.
