IDGOR Port Code Lookup
Total 1 ports of IDGOR
Gorontalo Port is the seaport of Gorontalo, in the city of Gorontaloin Indonesia. Overseas routes include Southeast Asia, Port code is IDGOR.
Port Overview
Gorontalo is a medium-sized commercial seaport on the north coast of Sulawesi and the principal trading gateway for Teluk Tomini. The port functions as a roadstead anchorage and lighterage port, with two quays, ferry activity and an oil terminal. It is positioned approximately 22 nautical miles northwest of Tanjung Mononggawa. For international forwarding, IDGOR is best assessed as a regional, draft-sensitive gateway rather than a large hub: cargo planning may involve feeder or coastal connections, lighterage, and local coordination before or after the ocean leg. Our service team can arrange feasibility checks for vessel size, cargo handling mode, documentation and inland delivery before booking.

| Recorded maximum vessel particulars | Length 114 m; draught 6.6 m; deadweight 8,528 t |
Key Highlights
- Regional role: Serves Gorontalo and the wider Teluk Tomini trading area, with cargo flows shaped by regional rather than major hub-port demand.
- Lighterage exposure: Roadstead operations and lighterage can add coordination, weather and cargo-transfer considerations compared with a fully sheltered deep-water container terminal.
- Draft control: The supplied port record reports a maximum recorded draught of 6.6 m; vessel and cargo acceptance must be reconfirmed for each sailing.
- Mixed cargo profile: Cargo vessels represent approximately 70% of recorded calls and tankers approximately 30%, indicating both general-cargo and liquid-bulk operating requirements.
- Container planning: The record lists approximately 23,600 TEU annually and three FCL service references in the platform data; actual equipment, booking and connection options require carrier confirmation.
Facilities & Services
Routes & Logistics Timing
- Typical connection logic: International cargo may require a regional feeder, coastal connection or transshipment through another Indonesian gateway before reaching or leaving Gorontalo. Direct service, carrier rotation and equipment availability must be checked per booking.
- Export flow: Local agricultural and general cargo can require consolidation, lighterage or coastal positioning before the main international leg. The final routing depends on cargo volume, equipment and carrier acceptance.
- Import flow: Containerized imports should be planned around discharge availability, local delivery capacity and any transshipment connection. LCL handling should not be assumed because the supplied platform record lists no LCL service reference.
- Timing variables: Weather at the roadstead, lighter availability, berth or anchorage sequence, vessel draft, transshipment connection, customs release and local trucking can materially change the schedule. Any timing quoted by our team is subject to carrier and port confirmation.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
| Area or cargo group | Forwarding implications |
|---|---|
| Gorontalo and Teluk Tomini trading area | Regional distribution and collection require coordinated port-to-road planning, especially where cargo is transferred through anchorage or lighterage operations. |
| Copra and agricultural commodities | Verify moisture protection, bagging, contamination control, fumigation or phytosanitary requirements where applicable, and weather-safe loading arrangements. |
| General and breakbulk cargo | Confirm package dimensions, lifting points, cargo gear, securing method and whether the nominated vessel can work the cargo at the quay or anchorage. |
| Petroleum and liquid bulk | Use the oil-terminal process rather than general-cargo assumptions; terminal acceptance, SDS documentation, dangerous-goods declaration and segregation controls are essential. |
| Containerized regional cargo | Equipment positioning and empty-container availability may be more restrictive than at a major hub. Our team checks FCL feasibility before confirming the commercial offer. |
Operations & Compliance
- Booking and cut-off: Do not apply a generic hub-port cut-off. Carrier booking, SI, VGM, cargo-receiving and port-gate deadlines may differ for a regional call, feeder connection or lighterage plan; our team obtains the applicable schedule in writing.
- Dangerous goods: Submit the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, SDS and package details before acceptance. Oil-terminal or tanker-related cargo requires separate terminal and carrier approval; acceptance is never presumed.
- Customs and inspection: Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading instructions, permits and origin or sanitary documents should be consistent. Customs inspection, document review or physical examination can extend release time, so cargo should not be dispatched on an unconfirmed release.
- Inland delivery and cargo protection: Confirm truck dimensions, payload, road conditions, delivery access, staging and weather protection. For lighterage, clarify responsibility for tally, shortage or damage evidence and cargo insurance before operations begin.
Shipping Tips from Our Service Team
- Send the commodity, package list, dimensions, gross weight, cargo value, HS information, dangerous-goods status and preferred shipment window before requesting a firm route.
- For oversized, heavy or breakbulk cargo, provide lifting points, center of gravity, drawings and securing requirements; our team will request vessel, quay or lighterage feasibility before booking.
- Build schedule protection around transshipment and roadstead operations rather than relying only on the advertised ocean-leg duration. Keep delivery appointments flexible until discharge and customs release are confirmed.
- Where regular container service or equipment is unavailable, compare a confirmed regional feeder or coastal solution with an alternative Indonesian gateway; the best option depends on total cost, cargo sensitivity and connection reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can IDGOR handle containerized FCL cargo?
- Containerized cargo is represented in the supplied port record, but equipment supply, carrier acceptance, empty release and connection availability are not uniform. Our team verifies the exact FCL plan before quoting or accepting cargo.
- Is Gorontalo a deep-water container hub?
- No such assumption should be made. The port is described as a regional commercial and lighterage port with a roadstead anchorage. The recorded maximum draught is 6.6 m, subject to vessel and operational confirmation.
- Can dangerous goods be shipped through the port?
- Possibly, subject to carrier, terminal, port and Indonesian regulatory acceptance. Complete DG details and SDS must be supplied early; oil-terminal cargo follows a separate approval process.
- Does the port offer LCL service?
- The platform data lists zero LCL service references for IDGOR. Our team therefore checks consolidation availability and may assess an alternative gateway or origin consolidation arrangement instead of assuming local LCL handling.
- What causes the largest schedule risks?
- Roadstead weather, lighterage coordination, vessel or draft restrictions, transshipment connections, customs inspection and local trucking are the main planning variables. We use carrier and local-agent confirmation rather than a fixed transit promise.
Data Sources & Provenance
The port identity, UN/LOCODE, coordinates, port description, recorded vessel limits and indicative annual cargo, TEU and vessel figures on this page are based on the IDGOR port master record supplied for this page. These figures describe the supplied reference dataset and are not presented as a current operating guarantee.
For operational confirmation, our service team cross-checks applicable information with relevant Indonesian maritime, customs and port-operation channels, including hubla.dephub.go.id, pelindo.co.id and beacukai.go.id. Statistical context may be checked against bps.go.id where a matching official series is available.
Vessel acceptance, berth or anchorage conditions, cargo equipment, schedules, customs procedures, charges and service availability are time-sensitive. Our team confirms these items with the carrier, terminal, port authority, customs broker and local agent before execution.
