Port of Novorossiysk

RUNVS🇷🇺Russia

Also known as: Novorossiisk Harbour, Novorossijskaja Gavan', Novorossisk Harbor, Novorossiysk Harbor, Novorossiyskaya Gavan', Novorossiyskaya Gavan’

This Black Sea port is Russia's largest in Krasnodar Krai, featuring the nation's longest berthing line. It handles significant cargo volumes, including liquid bulk, and accommodates deep-draft vessels in its ice-free Tsemes Bay. Pilotage and tug services are compulsory.

Background
Novorossiysk Sea Port is one of the largest ports in the Black Sea basin and the largest in Krasnodar Krai. At 8.3 km, the NSP berthing line is the longest among all the ports of Russia. The port is located on the Northeast coast of the Black Sea, in the Tsemes Bay. The bay is ice-free and open for navigation all year round. However, in winter the navigation occasionally stops due to the hazardous northeastern bora wind. The Tsemes Bay allows deep-draft vessels up to 19 m, and the inner harbour up to 12.5 m. The liquid bulk terminals depth range from 8.4 to 15.6 m, suitable for tankers with a deadweight of up to 250,000 tons, like Suezmax-class vessels.
