VEBJG Port Code Lookup

Bajo Grande Port is the seaport of Bajo grande, in the city of Bajo grandein Venezuela. Overseas routes include Central and South America, Port code is VEBJG.
Port Overview
Bajo Grande (UN/LOCODE: VEBJG) is a medium-sized offshore petroleum terminal on Venezuela’s northern coast, positioned near 10°29′50.15″N, 071°37′52.32″W. The facility is formed by several platforms linked into a concrete island running north–south. Its operating profile is specialized rather than container-oriented: recorded vessel calls mainly include LPG tankers, oil-product tankers and dive vessels. The terminal handles crude oil, refined products, fuel oil, gas and diesel oil. A natural gas liquids terminal is located approximately 1 nautical mile south of the oil terminal and comprises a platform with four mooring dolphins and an eastern-side berth. Our platform therefore treats VEBJG primarily as a liquid-bulk and energy cargo port, requiring cargo compatibility checks, ship/shore confirmation and controlled dangerous-goods documentation before booking.

Key Highlights
Facilities & Services
- Oil terminal: Platform-based offshore infrastructure supporting petroleum and refined-product operations.
- Natural gas liquids terminal: Located about 1 nautical mile south of the oil terminal, with a platform, four mooring dolphins and an eastern-side berth.
- Marine access: Our team coordinates vessel nomination, cargo compatibility review, berth-window confirmation and ship/shore documentation with the appointed terminal contacts.
- Specialized cargo handling: The described infrastructure is oriented to liquid bulk and energy cargoes; container terminal, general-cargo warehouse, rail connection and inland depot services should not be assumed for VEBJG without written confirmation.
- Marine support: Pilotage, mooring, diving support and terminal service availability remain subject to the vessel, cargo, weather and current operating instructions.
Routes & Transit Times
- Our platform handles VEBJG as a project-specific liquid-bulk destination rather than a routine container gateway. The practical routing is normally determined by the nominated tanker, cargo grade, terminal acceptance and available loading or discharge window.
- International planning may require transshipment or feeder coordination through a suitable Caribbean or northern South American hub when the selected carrier does not call directly at Bajo Grande. Direct service, sailing frequency and carrier acceptance must be confirmed case by case.
- Transit planning should include terminal nomination, dangerous-goods review, vessel approval, port documentation, weather exposure, berth congestion and customs or regulatory clearance. Our team provides a schedule range only after these operational inputs are confirmed.
- For containerized, breakbulk or non-compatible cargo, our team evaluates an alternative Venezuelan gateway and inland transfer plan instead of assuming that VEBJG can receive the cargo.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
- Primary logistics role: VEBJG serves petroleum-related marine movements associated with western Venezuela’s coastal energy supply chain and offshore terminal operations.
- Typical cargo: Crude oil, refined petroleum products, fuel oil, gas, diesel oil and natural gas liquids; LPG-related tanker operations may also be involved.
- Specialized support cargo: Dive-vessel activity indicates a potential requirement for marine maintenance, inspection or offshore-support equipment, subject to terminal acceptance and cargo classification.
- Inland distribution: Road delivery, storage, customs clearance and final-user arrangements must be separately confirmed with the consignee and local service providers; the port record does not establish container-yard or warehouse capacity.
Operations & Compliance
- Booking and cut-off: Do not rely on standard container closing times. Our team obtains the terminal’s vessel nomination deadline, document cut-off, cargo readiness requirement and berth-window confirmation for each shipment.
- Dangerous goods: LPG, gas, crude oil and petroleum products require accurate UN number, proper shipping name, hazard class, packing group where applicable, flash point, SDS and emergency-contact information. Terminal acceptance must be secured before final booking.
- Ship/shore compatibility: Cargo grade, manifold details, loading or discharge rate, tank condition, vapour-control requirements and maximum allowable draught must be checked against the nominated vessel and terminal instructions.
- Customs and inspection: Commercial invoice, cargo specification, certificate of origin where required, quantity or quality certificates, bill of lading instructions and export/import permits should be aligned before the vessel arrives. Customs, port and terminal inspections may affect the planned window.
Shipping Tips
- Send our service team the cargo SDS, UN classification, grade, quantity, temperature, flash point and intended operation before requesting a firm vessel or terminal nomination.
- Use the recorded 244 m length, 9 m draught and 106,500 t deadweight figures only as initial screening parameters. Final limits must be confirmed against the current terminal notice, pilot instructions, tide and under-keel-clearance assessment.
- For equipment or project cargo, confirm whether the terminal accepts non-liquid cargo and whether a safe offshore transfer or alternative port is required; do not assume container, crane or warehouse availability.
- Build contingency time for weather, offshore mooring, inspection, documentation corrections and terminal approval. Our team can compare an alternative gateway when cargo compatibility or berth availability is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our team does not treat Bajo Grande as a standard container gateway. The supplied port profile describes an offshore petroleum and NGL operation, so container acceptance, handling equipment and inland depot arrangements must be confirmed before any booking is issued.
VEBJG is primarily suited to crude oil, refined products, fuel oil, gas, diesel oil and natural gas liquids handled by compatible tankers. LPG-related and marine-support movements require separate terminal approval.
No. They are maximum recorded particulars in the supplied port data. Our team verifies the current operational limit for the nominated vessel, including berth, tide, weather, pilotage and under-keel-clearance conditions.
At minimum, prepare the cargo declaration, SDS, UN details, hazard classification, quantity, flash point, cargo specification, certificates required by the trade and complete bill-of-lading instructions. The terminal or authorities may request additional documents.
Our service team reviews a suitable hub, transshipment or alternative Venezuelan gateway after checking cargo compatibility, customs requirements, inland delivery conditions and the consignee’s operational constraints.
Data Sources & Provenance
Port code, name, country, city, coordinates, terminal description, cargo profile and recorded vessel particulars in this module are based on the supplied VEBJG port record. Operational limits, berth availability, vessel acceptance, customs procedures, dangerous-goods requirements and service schedules are time-sensitive and must be reconfirmed with the appointed terminal, carrier, agent and competent authorities before execution.
For international location-code reference and cross-checking, our team uses the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe domain: unece.org. For Venezuelan customs and tax-authority coordination, the relevant official domain is: seniat.gob.ve.
No container capacity, berth count, storage capacity, fixed sailing frequency, guaranteed transit time or port tariff is stated here because those parameters require current, port-specific confirmation.
