Port Overview · UN/LOCODE VEGUB

Guaranao Port, Punta Cardon, Venezuela

Guaranao is a medium-sized seaport on Venezuela’s Paraguana Peninsula, serving the Punta Cardon area and commonly identified in logistics records as Punto Fijo Port. The supplied port record describes two piers with four general-cargo berths reported as over 100 metres in length, together with a Ro-Ro ramp. Its operating profile is more closely aligned with general cargo, project shipments and vehicle handling than with a dedicated container gateway. The record indicates a maximum draught of 8.7 metres, maximum vessel deadweight of 36,000 tonnes and a longest recorded vessel length of 180 metres. Our platform treats these figures as planning references only: berth acceptance, pilotage, cargo readiness, documentation and vessel-specific restrictions must be reconfirmed before booking.

Decision Snapshot

Key Highlights

General-cargo orientation

Plan the port primarily for breakbulk, project cargo, conventional cargo and vehicle movements rather than assuming standard container-terminal services.

Ro-Ro capability

A Ro-Ro ramp is reported, making roll-on/roll-off planning possible subject to ramp compatibility, cargo dimensions and terminal confirmation.

Draft-sensitive selection

The supplied maximum draught is 8.7 metres; actual sailing draft depends on berth, tide, under-keel clearance, cargo distribution and port approval.

Vessel-size control

The record cites 36,000 tonnes maximum deadweight and a 180-metre longest recorded vessel, neither of which replaces a current port acceptance check.

Local confirmation is essential

Our service team recommends confirming berth availability, cargo-handling resources, pilotage and customs procedures before issuing firm loading instructions.

Physical Handling Profile

Facilities & Services

Berthing: The supplied record identifies two piers and four general-cargo berths. Berth allocation, working length, cargo gear and operating windows should be confirmed for each vessel.
Ro-Ro handling: A Ro-Ro ramp is reported. Our team will verify ramp load limits, approach dimensions, vehicle securing arrangements and whether mafi, tugger or ship’s-ramp operations are required.
Breakbulk and project cargo: The port profile may suit machinery, steel, construction materials and other non-containerized cargo, subject to lifting plans and shore-equipment availability.
Container planning: No container-yard capacity, quay-crane specification or regular container-service schedule is stated in the supplied data. Containerized cargo should therefore be booked only after confirming handling capability and carrier acceptance.
Inland connectivity: Road pickup and delivery must be assessed against cargo dimensions, vehicle availability, security requirements and the actual destination. No railway connection is assumed for this port.

Routing Guidance

Routes & Logistics Timing

Guaranao should be evaluated as a regional Venezuelan port call for general cargo and Ro-Ro movements. The exact ocean routing, transshipment point, carrier acceptance and sailing frequency must be checked against the requested origin and cargo type.
For container cargo, a feeder or alternative Venezuelan gateway may be involved; our platform will compare the total door-to-door route rather than assuming a direct service.
For breakbulk and project cargo, transit planning is driven by vessel nomination, port rotation, berth readiness, cargo documents, lifting resources and the availability of suitable inland equipment.
Actual transit time can change because of port congestion, vessel waiting, customs inspection, weather, draft restrictions, security procedures and inland road conditions. Any quoted schedule remains subject to carrier and local-agent confirmation.

Cargo and Catchment Area

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Guaranao serves the Punta Cardon and Paraguana Peninsula area. Its location makes local industrial, energy-related, construction and consumer-supply movements relevant, but the final cargo route should be assessed from the consignee’s exact address rather than from the port name alone.

Breakbulk Ro-Ro cargo Project equipment Steel and construction materials Industrial supplies

Typical candidate cargo includes machinery, vehicles, rolling equipment, steel products, construction materials and other non-containerized industrial goods.
Energy-sector or offshore-related support cargo may occur in the wider regional logistics environment, but acceptance must be confirmed for each shipment and vessel.
Heavy or oversized cargo requires a route survey, axle-load review, lifting plan and confirmation of inland permits before cargo is dispatched.

Execution Controls

Operations & Compliance

Booking and cut-offs: Guaranao-specific closing, documentation and cargo-receiving cut-offs are not inferred from the port record. Our service team will obtain the carrier, agent and terminal deadlines in writing before dispatch.
Dangerous goods: Submit the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, quantity, package type, emergency contact and current safety documentation. Do not move dangerous goods until carrier and port acceptance is confirmed.
Customs and inspection: Commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, origin information, permits and consignee/import data must be consistent. Cargo may be selected for documentary or physical inspection, so avoid promising a fixed release time.
Vessel and cargo compatibility: Confirm draft, LOA, deadweight, ramp or lifting requirements, hatch dimensions, cargo securing, under-keel clearance and any berth restrictions before final vessel nomination.

Regulatory filings and customs requirements should be checked with the Venezuelan authorities and the appointed local agent before shipment execution.

Recommended Workflow

Shipping Tips from Our Service Team

Send us the commodity, package count, dimensions, gross weight, centre of gravity, lifting points, hazardous-goods status and final delivery address before rate comparison.
For vehicles and rolling cargo, provide unit dimensions, axle details, running condition, fuel or battery status and securing requirements so the Ro-Ro option can be screened correctly.
For oversized or heavy cargo, request a preliminary berth, vessel, inland-route and equipment review before manufacturing, packing or positioning cargo at origin.
Keep a contingency plan covering an alternative Venezuelan gateway, transshipment option or breakbulk/liner solution when draft, equipment, berth availability or carrier acceptance is uncertain.

Practical Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is VEGUB a container port?

The supplied record describes general-cargo berths and a Ro-Ro ramp, but does not establish dedicated container-terminal equipment or a regular container schedule. Our team confirms container handling with the carrier and local operator before booking.

What vessel size can be planned?

The record states a maximum draught of 8.7 metres, maximum deadweight of 36,000 tonnes and a longest recorded vessel length of 180 metres. These are reference limits, not an automatic acceptance guarantee.

Can project cargo be shipped through Guaranao?

It may be suitable for project and breakbulk cargo, subject to berth access, lifting capacity, cargo dimensions, vessel compatibility, inland route approval and a shipment-specific handling plan.

How early should cargo be presented?

There is no universal cut-off stated for this port. Our service team obtains the applicable carrier, agent and terminal deadlines and builds time for inspection, customs, security and possible berth changes.

Can you guarantee transit time?

No. Transit depends on the selected service, port rotation, vessel nomination, customs, weather, cargo readiness and inland delivery conditions. We provide an operational estimate only after receiving confirmed routing details.

Data Integrity

Data Sources & Provenance

The port identity, UN/LOCODE, English and Chinese names, country, Punta Cardon location, coordinates, vessel-profile figures and facility description on this page are based on the supplied VEGUB port record. The operational figures are presented as reported reference data and are not treated as a current guarantee of berth, draft, equipment or service availability.

Our platform supplements this record only with shipment-planning guidance and standard freight-forwarding risk controls. Current sailing schedules, carrier acceptance, port notices, customs procedures, berth conditions, cargo cut-offs and inland restrictions must be verified with the appointed carrier, local agent and competent Venezuelan authorities before execution.

For customs-related verification, our service team may coordinate with Venezuela’s tax and customs authority through its official domain: seniat.gob.ve. This domain is provided for authority-level verification only; the specific filing, permit and release requirements remain shipment-dependent.
