Ibom Deep Sea Port (ISDP)

Ibom deep seaport is a Federal Government project driven by the Federal Ministry of Transportation, Akwa Ibom State & Nigerian Port Authority. Once constructed, it will be the first transhipment port capable of accommodation oversized (New and Post Panamax) vessels for international imports/exports and smaller vessels aimed to re-distribute cargo to river ports in Akwa Ibom State. The Port is well positioned to offer a value proposition superior to other ports in the region as no other port in the West African region has yet to be established as a major transhipment hub.
 

It will occupy 2,565Ha of land area split across three phases of development.
