Located at the southeast coast of the Buenos Aires province, on the mouth of the Quequén Grande river, the port is fitted with berths at both river margins.

 

Grains/Byproducts:

 

There are three loading berths ex-silos on the Quequén city side of the river:

• Pier 1 SITIO 0 terminal

• Pier 4/5 Terminal Quequén S.A.

• Pier 6 Terminal Quequén S.A.

• Pier 10

• Pier 12 Pier Doce S.A. Terminal

 

The loading rate is about 7.000/9.000 mt every six hours shift.

The normal working time is mondays to fridays 0700/1300 hours and 1300/1900 hours, saturdays 0700/1300 hours.

 

The sailing draft is 13,40 m / 13,50 m brackish water, density about 1018.

Length overall restriction: 230 m.

 

Important: Necochea / Quequén port is often closed by the port authority on account the prevailing southern/southeastern heavy swell. On this basis, we strongly recommend to Owners and Charterers to insert the Necochea Swell Clause in the ruling charter party. There are two open berths which basically are employed for discharging fertilizers and also for loading bypducts and vegoils. These are pier 1 and pier 10.
