Nationwide Operations Across All Nigerian Port Cities

Cargoburg Logistics Limited offers complete shipping support solutions in all major port cities across Nigeria. Our services are fully operational and available in:

  • Lagos – home to Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports, Nigeria’s busiest and most commercially active seaports.

  • Port Harcourt – an industrial powerhouse and key maritime center for oil and gas logistics.

  • Onne – strategically important for oil and gas-related cargo and a modern deep-sea port.

Our physical presence and operational partnerships across these port cities enable us to provide responsive, localized services that meet the unique requirements of both international and domestic clients. We work hand-in-hand with terminal operators, port authorities, customs, and marine service providers to streamline operations from start to finish.

What Are Shipping Support Services?

Shipping support services encompass a wide range of activities essential for the smooth arrival, turnaround, and departure of vessels at ports. These services bridge the gap between vessel arrival and the successful clearance or onward movement of cargo. At Cargoburg Nigeria, our shipping support services are all-encompassing and tailored to suit the individual needs of each client and shipping line.

Our suite of Shipping Support Services in Nigeria includes:

1. Vessel Berthing and Coordination

We handle all the intricacies involved in securing berths and coordinating with port authorities. Our expert logistics agents ensure minimal berthing delays by liaising with stakeholders in advance, reducing the risk of demurrage charges and congestion-related hold-ups.

2. Port Documentation and Clearance

With a thorough understanding of Nigerian port documentation protocols, we help clients process shipping manifests, bills of lading, cargo declarations, and more. Our documentation team ensures full compliance with NPA (Nigerian Ports Authority), Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), and Nigeria Customs Service regulations.

3. Pilotage and Towage Coordination

We arrange for pilot boarding and tug services to safely navigate vessels in and out of harbors. This ensures vessels enter and exit ports safely, especially in tide-sensitive or congested locations like Lagos and Port Harcourt.

4. Crew Management and Immigration Support

Crew change procedures in Nigeria can be complex due to regulatory oversight. We simplify the process by managing visa requirements, immigration protocols, and local transport logistics for seafarers. Our team ensures crew members experience minimal disruption during their embarkation or disembarkation.

5. Ship Chandling Services

We supply vessels with essential items such as fresh water, provisions, safety gear, spare parts, and cleaning materials. Our chandling services are cost-effective, timely, and available 24/7 across all supported ports.

6. Bunkering Services

Our marine fuel supply service provides high-quality, low-sulfur bunker fuel for vessels at anchor or at berth. We ensure the fuel meets international quality and environmental standards and is delivered safely and efficiently.

7. Waste Management and Sludge Disposal

Cargoburg supports environmentally responsible shipping by providing MARPOL-compliant waste collection, bilge water disposal, and sludge removal. We are aligned with both Nigerian environmental standards and international maritime pollution prevention protocols.

8. Technical and Emergency Support

From minor vessel repairs to emergency dry docking arrangements, our technical support services are reliable and fast. We work closely with certified marine engineers, diving teams, and inspection officers to respond to emergencies promptly.
