INFORMATION ABOUT OUR PRINCIPAL PORT

Abidjan is one of the biggest ports in West Africa if not the
biggest. We have 24 standards berths numbered from 1 to 24 and one
specialized roro berth number 25. Presently the port of Abidjan
has 3 gantry cranes of which are almost working all the time.
The gantries are situated from berth 23 & 24 and onwards on the Vridi
terminal.We have also, one mobile shore crane which can operate at
berths no.25 , 24 , 23 & 22 . Max draft permissible in Abidjan Terminal
is 11.50 m even keel (fresh water).

Various other specialised berths exist i.e drydock/shipyard 'CARENA'
offshore tools/equ berth (philip quay), pretrolium berth,
fruits berth, fishing port etc...
Fyi, the entrance to the port is reachable by going through the Vridi
Canal. Once you arrive at Abidjan roads, you must call abidjan port
control to register your arrival;then the port authorities will
inform you when you will be able to take pilot. The canal is not
always open - it depends on the Vridi times. the Vridi times are
calculated on the basis of the current and the tide and is usually
anounced three days in advance. But this is not recommanded for ships
under 100m length (loa).
