Pontianak (IDPNK)

The port handles principal exports such as rubber, spices, coconut and timber products. Import commodities include rice, cement, fuel, sugar, fertiliser, chemicals and asphalt.

Tropical.

The Pontianak port is situated along the banks of a river flowing in the western parts of Borneo. The port consists of anchorages near the berths river mouth at Jungkat, then along a channel 30km in length.

LOA 189.99m, beam 32.26m, draught 5m, 56,026DWT.

Approx 240,000TEU of cargo handled annually.

Ocean going vessels unable to enter the river can load cargo in the anchorage, S of the entrance lightbuoy, known locally as Muara Junkat, in depths of 10.0m. Outer anchorage: Anchorage may be obtained in depths of not less than 20.0m, in which depth the ground swell is less than closer in. During the SW monsoon, from May to September, vessels should anchor still further out, but at this period it is often impossible for boats to enter the river. Prohibited anchorages: Vessels are cautioned against anchoring off the entrance in a triangular area enclosed by lines joining the following positions: Anchorage, at Pontianak is abreast the town in depths of 16.0m to 18.0m. There is room for vessels to swing in the anchorage, but they should keep well clear of the Government Pier. The W limit of the anchorage is the meridian of 109°18.93'E. The E limit is the W limit of the prohibited anchorage described below. Due to submarine cables, vessels are cautioned against anchoring in 2 areas situated, respectively, close NW and SE of the entrance to Sungai Landak, nearly opposite Pontianak. The limits of each area are marked by a red triangular board, from which a light is exhibited. ..... Latitude Longitude 00°09.41'N 109°03.17'E 00°05.00'N 109°06.58'E 00°05.67'N 109°01.50'E

The channel to Pontianak is approx 17nm in length from the entrance lightbuoy (safe water) to the town. Outer leading lights are exhibited on the N side of the entrance approx 6.5nm ESE of the entrance lightbuoy. In line, bearing 103.5°, these lights lead over the bar in a depth of 4.0m. The channel is marked by lightbuoys which are moved to conform with the frequent changes in the channel. Two dangerous wrecks lie approx 17nm W of the front outer leading light, the NE wreck is marked by a lightbuoy (N cardinal pillar). Two more dangerous wrecks, both unmarked, lie respectively 8nm and 4.25nm WNW of the same leading light. The latter wreck is located very close S of the outer leading line. Inner leading lights are exhibited on the N side of the outer channel approx 1.25nm WNW of the outer leading light beacons. In line, bearing approx 296.5° astern, these lights lead to the deep water channel N of Pulau Panjang. Outer directions: When approaching Pontianak from S, steer for the tallest tree on Bukit Peniraman (00°13'N 109°08'E), in line with Gunung Lontjit, bearing 025°, which leads 0.5nm W of the buoy (safe water) marking the seaward end of the entrance channel.From W, steer for the safe water buoy at the seaward end of the entrance channel. Then enter on the alignment of the outer and inner leading lights following the buoyed channel. In the approaches and in the outer channel, the dangerous wrecks should be given a wide berth. As 2 vessels cannot pass each other in the dredged channel, it must be ascertained that the channel is clear before proceeding in or out. Outbound vessels take precedence. Inner directions: After passing the rear leading light beacon keep to the N side of channel until a light beacon, standing on the N side of the river, 1.25nm WNW of Batu Lajang, is reached. This beacon has a notice board painted "menjeberang" (cross over).Then steer across the river towards a similar beacon on the S side of the river, 0.5nm SW of Batu Lajang, marked "sisi daratan" (hug this shore). This beacon has been reported missing. Then keep 0.1nm off the S bank passing S of the red can buoy marking the rock, awash, off Pulau Batulayang, until 1nm E of that islet. Then keep in mid channel to the anchorage off Pontianak. The inner routes to Pontianak through the delta of Sungai Kapuas are as follows: For vessels with local knowledge, there are 4 inner routes through the delta of Sungai Kapuas, which lead to Pontianak, (00°01'S 109°21'E) a town situated a few miles within the mouth of Sungai Kapuas-ketjil. Inner Route I leads from Teluk Sukadana, through the S arm of Selat Maja, (01° 08'S 109°48'E) Sempang Lida, Selat Paduampat, Selat Panjang, Sungai Kubu, Sungai Pungu-besar and then into Sungai Kapuas-ketjil. This route is 140nm in length and, except at neap tides, can be used at HW by vessels not exceeding 3.0m in draught. Inner Route II starts from Teluk Nuri (00°58'S 109°35'E) and leads through the W arm of Selat Maja, then through Sempang Lida, Selat Mendawak, Sungai Kapuas and Sungai Kapuas-ketjil. The total length is 170nm. Inner Route III starts from the mouth of Sungai Padangtikar (00°39'S 109°15'E) and leads through Selat Panjang, N of Pulau Panjang, to Sungai Jenu (Djenoe). They can also reach the latter and obtain greater depths, by passing through Sungai Padangtikar, S of Pulau Panjang and then W of Pulau Telokajer. The route then passes through Sungai Jenu to join Sungai Mendawak, where it merges with Inner Route II as above. Inner Route III is 144nm in length. Inner Route IV which is the recommended route for vessels of between 100GT and 1,200GT and up to 70m in length, is also entered from the mouth of Sungai Padangtikar, and leads through Sungai Kubu Kecil, when it is the same as Inner Route I. Pilots, which are compulsory, can be embarked at Tanjung Padangtikar. Local regulations for the channel in Sungai Kubu Kecil for vessels of over 500GT are as follows: ..... 1. Vessels approaching Pontianak must enter the channel between 0600hrs and 1200hrs. 2. Vessels leaving Pontianak must enter the channel between 1200hrs and 1800hrs. 3. Entry into the channel is prohibited at night. All the above routes, except for a portion of Inner Route III, are navigable by night when conditions are favourable and with local knowledge. The whole area of the delta of Sungai Kapuas is subject to heavy showers, squalls, and thick mist in the mornings. The visibility is therefore often reduced, and navigation may be impeded for some hours.
