About Suriname Ports and Congestion
Paramaribo Port is Suriname’s central cargo handling hub, managing imports, exports, and petroleum shipments. Although current vessel counts are low, congestion can occur during peak agricultural export seasons or following river silting events that limit draft capacity. Port infrastructure supports containerized, Ro/Ro, and dry bulk operations. The Suriname Ports Management Company is focused on dredging and berth modernization projects to increase turnaround efficiency. Partnerships with Dutch and Brazilian firms have improved yard automation and scheduling systems.
