Busan (KRPUS)

Busan, the country's principal port is divided into five areas consisting of North Port, South Port, Gamcheon Port, Dadaepo Port and Busan New Port. North Port, the main harbour, has a natural deep water harbour divided by Yong Do into two areas, comprising of an inner and outer harbour. The inner harbour is due to be urbanised and its commercial shipping will be moved to other areas of the port. The outer harbour handles mainly container cargoes and large cruise ships. South Port is mainly used by coastal and fishing vessels. Gamcheon Harbour, which is being further developed, handles dry, liquid bulk and ship repair/drydock facilities. Dadaepo Port is a small port for ferries and general cargo. Busan New Port (PNC), in the district of Kadeokdo area to the W of Busan, Phase 2-4, 5 & 6 is currently under construction. Imports: Cement, grain, machinery, oil, timber, steel products and containerised general cargo. Exports: Machinery, manufactured products and containerised cargoes.

Summer.

Busan is located on the SE coast of the South Korean Peninsula.

Max size (Harbour): LOA 400m, beam 61.5m, draught 16.0m, 281,456DWT.

Approx 460,000,000t of cargo, 24,000,000TEU, 14,000 no of vessels and 850,000passengers handled annually.

All anchorages are sheltered with good holding in mud bottom. Quarantine Anchorages: Anchorage areas N-1 to N-4 have been established in the S Outer Harbour. Anchorage area N-5 has been established 2nm SW of Saeng Do. North Inner Harbour: Good anchorage can be obtained in North Inner Harbour at all times of the year. There are three numbered berths in depths up to 10.0m: ..... Anchorage E1 35°06.0'N 129°03.0'E Vessels up to 5,000t Anchorage E2 35°06.2'N 129°03.3'E Vessels up to10,000t Anchorage E3 35°06.4'N 129°03.1'E Vessels up to 10,000t North Outer Harbour: The O-2 anchorage, up to 8 vessels of 3,000t or less can use this anchorage. Other anchorages include "M7", "M8", "M9" and "M11" all handling vessels up to 10,000t, with depths from 7.0m to 14.0m. Gamcheon Harbour: Anchorage area K-C has been established, for vessels up to 20,000t, in the SE part of Kamnae P'o, inside the E breakwater. Three lightbuoys are positioned within the area. ..... Anchorage K1 35°04.2'N 129°00.0'E Anchorage K2 35°04.1'N 129°00.0'E Dadae Po: ..... There are two designated anchorages on the W side of the entrance to Tadae O's as follows: Anchorage K3 35°01.8'N 128°59.4'E, (0.35nm SE). For vessels up to 20,000t Anchorage K4 Swinging circle of 250m radius, centred on position 35°02.3'N 128° 59.2'E, lying W of the approach to Tadae P'o. For vessels up to 4,000t Caution: A lightbuoy (port hand, with topmark) is moored 0.175nm ESE of this position and a rock shoal, with a least depth of 4.3m over it, lies 0.175nm W. Anchorages in New Port: ..... Anchorage S1 35°00.18'N 128°52.96'E 18-22m 1 x 80,000DWT Anchorage S2 35°00.31'N 128°53.67'E 18-22m 1 x 50,000DWT Anchorage S3 35°00.38'N 128°54.28'E 19-22m 1 x 30,000DWT Prohibited Anchorage: In the area between Busan Bridge and the drawbridge, anchorage is prohibited, due to underwater pipes and a submarine cable. Designated Area: A designated area has been established in the approaches to Busan.

Busan is approached directly from Korea Strait. The individual harbours, except for Dadae Po (35°03.0'N 128°59.2'E), are entered through fairways marked by light buoys. Dadae Po is entered between Kyong Do (35°02.2'N 128°58.9'E) and Chadam Mal, 0.9nm NE.Entrance to the port is as follows: South Outer Harbour: Entered between Tanggand Mal, 35°03.0'N 129°01.0'E and Saeng Do, 4.0nm ESE. Depths in the main approach to South Outer Harbour decrease gradually from the 30m line to 10.0m, 2nm NNE of Tu Do Light (35° 02.7'N 129°01.0'E). Obstructions in the approach channel are 1.75nm SE from Tu Do Light with a least depth over it of 33m and 1nm E from Tu Do Light with a least depth over it of 20.4m. South Inner Harbour: Lies between the mainland and the NW end of Yeong Do. It has depths of 3.5-9.0m in the bay and is not suitable for large vessels at anchor. Safety Fairway No 2 should be followed from Outer Harbour to pass between the two breakwaters. The W breakwater extending 400m E from the W shore and the E breakwater extending 140m SW from Yong Do, then as necessary to allocated berth. Lights are exhibited from the head of the breakwaters. A detached breakwater extends 270m NNE-SSW in the NW corner of the harbour. Nine mooring buoys lie close off the shipbuilding yards on the E side of the harbour. North Outer Harbour: Entered between Sangi Mal, 35°03.0'N 129°06.0'E, a steep bold headland forming the E point of Yeong Do and Seungdu Mal, 2.75nm NNE. North Inner Harbour: Located at 35°06.0'N 129°04.0'E, is protected from SE by 2 breakwaters. The S breakwater extends 0.45nm NE from Mundol Mal, the N extremity of Yong Do. A light, (white, round tower, 16m in height, 35°06.0'N 129°03.9'E) is exhibited at the breakwater head. The N breakwater extends 0.27nm SW from Pubong Mal to Uno Se. Uno Se Light is exhibited from a tower (red, stone and concrete, 9.0m in height) on the N breakwater head. The main channel between the North Outer and Inner Harbour is 0.2nm wide. The approach to the N Inner Harbour from SE is through Safety Fairway 1 which is marked by lightbuoys in accordance with IALA (Region B). Entry to North Inner Harbour may also be made from South Inner Harbour but this is regulated by the height of Busan Bridge and the opening of the drawbridge close W of it. Caution: Fishing nets are laid annually from Sep-Mar on each side of No 2 Fairway. These nets also lie on most of the head of the N part of North Inner Harbour. Busan New Port: The new port area will generally be approx 15m depth, being dredged to 16m to accommodate the largest vessels, with alongside depth being taken to 16m increasing to 18m in time.

A blue flag will be displayed or a green light exhibited when the channel is clear. A red flag will be displayed or a red light exhibited if a vessel is prohibited from entering the channel. The following signals are made by siren 1 minute before closing or opening the drawbridge: ..... Bridge about to open Two long blasts Bridge about to close Continuous short blasts for 20 sec Bridge about to close during normal open period One long blast followed by one short blast A vessel passing from E to W should, if there is a vessel waiting to enter, give 1 long blast as soon as she has passed through the drawbridge. A long blast is of approx 10 sec duration and a short blast of approx 5 sec. A new bridge has been reportedly built at the N end of the North Inner Harbour. The bridge is said to run from W of Chasongdae Container Wharf and terminates E of No 7 Wharf. Speed restrictions: Speed in Safety Fairway No 1 and Inner Harbour is restricted to 10kts in depths over 18.0m and 5kts in shallower depths.

Mean neap range of 0.5m, spring range 1.1m. Currents: The general direction of the current between Busan and Sushima is NE. The rate of flow is constantly changing and does not exceed 1kt. When the current is weak, the combined flow may set SW for a short time. Tidal Stream: The tidal streams in the offing set SW during the rising tide and NE during the falling tide. They turn approx 30 minutes before high and low water. Tidal Stream; North Inner Harbour: The tidal streams set SW through Busan Hang with the rising tide and NE with the falling tide with a max rate of 2.25kts. Strong streams at their maximum rates are reported to set through the entrance between the breakwaters.
