Petroleum, Coen and Mercurius harbour

The Petroleum harbour, Coen harbour and the Mercurius/Vlot harbour area is an extensive, multifunctional port area. 

Oil harbour regulations apply in the entire Petroleum harbour. The company Main is located on the peninsula and processes bilge water and waste oil for companies in the port area. There are no public moorings in this area. Container transhipment takes place to the north of the Petroleum harbour in the side canal H.

A large part of the Coen harbour (harbour basin A and the north-west side of the harbour) is leased and does not contain any public moorings. Harbour basin C does have public moorings.

Various kinds of goods such as wood, cocoa, food, and fertiliser are transhipped in the Mercurius and Vlot harbour area. Coastal shipping and inland-shipping waiting berths are located in the Minerva harbour. The southern end of the Mercurius harbour also has a stand-by berth for inland shipping.

The entrance to the Nieuwe Hout harbour is located directly after the mouth of the Mercurius harbour.
