Wenzhou (CNWNZ)

The port's main cargoes are chemical fertiliser, steel, bulk salt, grain, sugar, coal, cement, timber, fishery products, granite, LPG, containers and general cargo. There are also facilities to handle containers, Ro-Ro, break bulk and passenger vessels. The planned development into a major port will include Zhuangyuanao Port and Yueqing Bay, Xiaomen Island and Lingkun, all under the jurisdiction of Wenzhou district.

Summer.

Wenzhou is located on the SE coast of China, midway between Fuzhou and Ningbo, at the mouth of the Ouhe River.

LOA 295m, beam 46m, draught 15.0m, 181,044DWT.

Approx 85,000,000t of cargo and 1,200,000TEU are handled annually.

The Huangdao pilot and quarantine anchorage is centred on 27°56.2'N 121°06.8'E with depths from 7.4 to 8.2m. Bottom is mud with good holding. Other anchorages are: ..... Anchorage Depth (m) Xiaomen 6.0-12.0 Leqing Bay shelter 10.0-22.0 Leqing Bay LPG lighter 12.0-22.0 Xiaomen LPG lighter 12.0-21.0 Huanghua 6.0 Wuxing Yu 14.0-20.0 Yuan Yu 11.0-19.0

There are two approach channels in use to Wenzhou, the Shatou Channel to the NE of the port restricted to 5,000DWT vessels and to the E of the port is the Huangdao Channel which can take vessels up to 20,000DWT. The port is approached through the Wenzhou Wan and entered through Bei Shuidao, then a buoyed channel leads to Oujiang Beikou. Min depth in Huangdao Channel is 4.5m and in the Laohuyan Channel is 3.0m, plus the height of tide.

BA 1155, 1763, 1721. Admiralty Pilot NP32, NP286(6).

Vessels usually berth port side alongside Qili wharf. Longwan and Yangushan wharves are berthed starboard alongside.

Compulsory for foreign and dangerous cargo vessels. Vessels should advise ETA 72, 48 and 24 hours prior to arrival. Pilot service is available during daylight hours, VHF Ch 16 and 13. Pilots board at positions; 27°56'00'N 121° 07'00'E (Huangdao pilot and quarantine anchorage), 28°02'33'N 121°11'59'E (S of Yuhuan Dao), 27°56'41'N 121°09'50'E (Yuan Yu Anchorage). For Xiaomen Island LPG terminal the pilot station anchorage is at 27°56.3'N 121°10.24'E, depth 9.0m, bottom mud.

The dividing line between the inner and outer harbour area is between Wenzhou Jiao (27°58.9'N 120°57.4'E) and the E end of Lingkun Dao. The outer port area includes much of Leqing Wan and the anchorages therein.

Wenzhou Port: All vessels entering/departing should wait for tide. Vessels up to 7.0m draught can arrive/depart on local HW. Vessels up to 8.5m draught can arrive/depart only on spring tide. Large vessels cannot sail after sunset. Wenzhou Great Bridge: Crosses Qidutu Island, airdraught limitation of 29.0m with draught of 5.5m at Inner Channel depth of 1.8m, after discharge, if the vessel berths at Yangfushan Wharf.

Range: Max 6.46m, min 0.52m, average 3.92m. In the harbour the average duration of the flood tide is 4.75 hours, and that of the ebb 7.5 hours; the tidal streams continue for 38mins after the times of HW and LW. During periods of high precipitation (Apr-Jun), the outgoing stream sometimes runs for a whole day at a rate of up to 6kts, and for short periods may attain 7kts.

Vessels with draughts greater than 4.0m must await the tide before entering Oujiang Beikou. Max speed in the river W of Lonwan is 10kts with the stream and 8kts against; W of Yangfushan Wharf the limit is 8kts with the stream and 6kts against. Vessels over 1,000DWT are not permitted to overtake when passing any construction work or in restricted parts of the river. Nor are they allowed to pass in these sections. Vessels with the stream have right of way. Vessels should avoid overtaking, but where necessary, the overtaking vessel must obtain permission from the vessel to be overtaken, and that vessel shall yield right of way until passed.

There are 8 tugs available, 3 x 3,400hp, 3 x 600hp, and 2 private tugs. (Wenzhou Port Group has 4 tugs available, 1 x 3,200hp, 1 x 3,400hp and 2 x 4,000hp. )

Strong winds up to gale force blow NE and SE 39kts. The port is also subject to about 4 typhoons each year, all of which occur in September. The typhoon brings approx 60% of the annual rainfall. Fog: Approx 18 days annually occurring usually between November and April, with most frequency in March and April.

The Master should advise the vessel's ETA to the state agent, or through the local agent to the state agency, 72, 48 and 24 hours prior to the vessel's arrival at the pilot station. The ETA message should include the time and date of the vessel's arrival and sea/fresh water draughts. If there is any dangerous cargo onboard, the Master should also report details of that cargo including description, packaging, IMO code and gross/net weight. Should the vessel's ETA or other circumstances change, prior to arrival, the Master should send further messages.

The national flag of the PRC, which is not old, damaged or colour faded, must be displayed in addition to normal Interco flags. Other flags are not to be displayed without permission from the Harbour Master.

The Master should be aware of the following regulations when the vessel is under normal commercial operations: ..... 1. Before adjusting ballast water, lowering lifeboats, inspecting the main engine, testing/using radio or painting the outer hull, the vessel should apply to the Harbour Master in writing. 2. When taking bunkers or welding, in addition to first obtaining permission of the Harbour Master, the work must be done under the Harbour Master's supervision. 3. There must be crew available at the top of the gangway to adjust it as required. A safety net must be securely rigged under the gangway. 4. The Master must arrange for a duty officer to be available to solve any potential problems during the vessel's loading and discharging and he should liaise closely with shore personnel. 5. Whilst at anchor, a duty officer must maintain a VHF watch on the nominated channel.

When a vessel departs its previous port, prior to calling at a Chinese port, it should apply for pratique by radio.

Before pratique is granted, the vessel must fly the Interco "Q" flag and no crew are allowed to proceed ashore. Ship Sanitation and Ship Sanitation Exemption Certificates can be renewed in all Chinese ports licensed for handling international vessels.

Normally NOR should be tendered according to the relevant clause in the Charter Party. If there is no special clause then it should be tendered according to the actual working hours of the port.

The vessel's agent will send instructions to inbound vessels through the coast radio station being used or via Inmarsat. The instructions usually include the time and position of the pilot boarding. The Master is required to confirm receipt of messages to avoid delays to the vessel.
