Port Overview

Buenaventura offers one multi-purpose terminal including a container terminal - Sociedad Portuaria Buenaventura (SPB) ndash a bulk and a container terminal located to the north (Aguadulce) of SPB and a container terminal east (TCBUEN) of SPB The entrance channel faces constant sedimentation ndash different values were given for the draught restriction Something like 9 m at low tide seems likely a tidal range of approx 4 m would permit vessels entering with up to 13 m draught at high tide Prior to chartering a vessel present conditions must be verified with the pilots Pilotage is compulsory for all ships of more than 200 tons and available on a 24-hour basis

The pilot will board the vessel one mile from shore sea buoy 1 Approx Duration of whole maneuver 2 hours The access channel to all three terminals has a length of 315 kilometers equivalent to 17 nautical miles It is recommended to take special care in navigation during transit of the inner bay since it is common to find large trunks in the canal which may hinder maneuvers During the rainy season the visibility decreases so is important to take a special care because there is a high traffic of fishermen

Buenaventura handles the largest cargo volume of all Colombian ports Most of the port services areprovided by private companies

As road access might be an issue Cargo movements through the Aguadulce terminal do not have to traverse the town of Buenaventura

Commercial aspects

In the national context the Bay of Buenaventura maintained leadership in the second half of 2019 with a 42 share in the total mobilization of tons with respect to the other ports in the country Regarding the Buenaventura Regional Port Society within the port node where it is located its participation corresponds to 54

Containers

SPRBUN continues to lead the participation in container loading in Buenaventura Bay with a mobilization of 170696 Teus out of a total of 389630 Teus mobilized in the Buenaventura port node The loss of international transshipment cargo is noteworthy as a result of differential conditions in the depth of the access channel to the Bay of Buenaventura which came to be managed by the Posorja Terminal in Ecuador

Information Technology Management

During the second semester of 2019 the Regional Port Society of Buenaventura through its Information Technology Management continued the strategic plan for digital transformation through innovative technological solutions ensuring business continuity management and security of IT services for its users and clients
