    Port of Nigeria

    Port Harcourt is situated on the banks of the Bonny River and is located in the State of Rivers about 66 kilometres upstream from the Gulf of Guinea. Port Harcourt in the Southwest of Nigeria is one of the most important industrial sites in the country.

    Oil is becoming increasingly important in view of the rapidly growing oil industry in Nigeria

    It is also home to the most important port of Nigeria. It has modern deep-sea facilities with a depth of seven metres. Exports through Port Harcourt include palm oil, timber, palm kernels, coal, columbite, tin, peanuts and petroleum. Oil in particular is becoming increasingly important in view of Nigeria's rapidly growing oil industry. However, aluminium products, tyres, paper and glass bottles as well as cigarettes, paints, construction steel, plastics, corrugated iron, furniture, enamel, cement and concrete products manufactured in Nigeria also leave the port of Harcourt for the whole world. In addition to Port Harcourt, the Nigerian Port Authority also manages and operates the ports of Sapele, Warri, Calabar and Lokoja.

    Port Harcort is the first privately operated port in Nigeria

    The free port for the oil and gas industry is located in Onne, a suburb of Port Harcort. This is the first privately operated port in Nigeria. More than 110 oil and gas companies operate in the West African Free Trade Area, including Exxon Mobil, Halliburton, Baker Hughes, Cameron and Shell, which has a particularly positive impact on the economy in Nigeria.
