Stenungsund (SESTE)

The port is mainly used by tankers as there are facilities for importing fuel oil, naphtha, ethylene and propane as well as exporting solvents and LPG. There are also dry cargo and multipurpose facilities available within the port.

North Atlantic Winter Seasonal Zone II, Winter Nov 1 to Mar 31, Summer Apr 1 to Oct 31.

Stenungsund is located on the E side of Askero Fjorden approx 25nm N of Gothenburg.

LOA 240m, beam 40m, draught 13.0m, 72,837DWT.

Approx 3,700,000t of cargo handled annually.

While awaiting berth, vessels anchor outside harbour NW of Vattenfall Jetty. There are safe anchorages everywhere, but the fairway S of Galteron Lighthouse should be avoided. Anchorage is also available, with depths of 12.0m, clay and good holding ground, at the W side of the main route about 0.5nm NNW of the Tjornbron Suspension Bridge.

The terminals are located approx 20nm from the Hatteberget Light Tower and are reached via Marstrands Fjorden and Hake Fjorden. When approaching from the W, vessels must keep N of the area of dangerous mines extending to 57°47'N 011° 03'E. Recommended approach is through South Channel via Algofjurden, passing between N Meholm and S Meholm. The channel between Bratton, Kallon and Almon islands at the N end of Hakefjord and under the Tjornbron bridge is in the form of an "S" bend and vision is obstructed. Engines should be on standby and anchors ready and manned in this area. Pilots in some cases follow the route S of Hunden Shoal and S Meholm, great caution is needed following this route as there are unmarked dangers, so during darkness and poor visibility the pilots intentions should be fully discussed before entering Algo Fjorden. Max draught in the approach channel is 12.8m MWL.
