Masters of sea and river vessels obtain information about anchorages from the ISPS duty officer. There are six inner anchorages in the Port water area. Three anchorages are intended for non self propelled ships and three anchorages for seagoing ships. Vessels that have called the Port and received the permit for berthing should drop anchor in the 63-64 mile area. Temporary stay of a sea going vessel while waiting for a berth in the 1st cargo area may be allowed in the 68th mile area. The Master should drop two anchors at a distance not more than 100m from the left bank so as not to obstruct arrivals and departures of the other vessels to/from berths as well as the traffic up and down the river. Vessels that have arrived in the Port and have not yet received a permit for berthing should drop anchor in the area of 63-64 miles. Sea-going ships staying in the roads must exhibit anchor lights in accordance with COLREG-72. Special Anchorages: ..... Seagoing tankers unloading to barges Mile 66-66.2. 500-600m off the bank Foreign seagoing tankers Mile 66.1-66.3. 50-300m Seagoing ships, Dry cargo Mile 68.3-68.9. 100-200m off the bank Depths in the roads vary from 2.0-25.0m (from the bank towards the mid river). The bottom in the port water area is limy and, sometimes sandy.

The port is approached directly from the Danube River. The limit depth to proceed to Reni Port down the Sulina channel is 7.0m.

Mooring a seagoing vessel at a berth between two moored ships is prohibited if the two such ships have already been moored sidewise to other ships (double banked).

Pilotage is compulsory for all seagoing ships and river sea ships within the Danube section between the sea arm Bystroye and the Reni Port. Pilotage is performed by the state sea pilots of the State Enterprise "Delta-Lotsman" (hereinafter "the SE") only. The main pilot station of the SE '"Delta-Lotsman" is located in the Izmail Port. Pilots are available throughout 24 hours and foreign vessels embark the port pilot in vicinity of Mile 64, having reported ETA while in the vicinity of Ismail Chatal. Some Seagoing ships and river sea ships may be exempted from compulsory Pilotage. Requests for a pilot should include the following: ..... 1. Length overall, breadth and freeboard 2. Full manoeuvering speed 3. Actual maximum draught of the ship, forward and aft draughts. Shifting Berth: Foreign seagoing ships and domestic ships may change berths within the Port only with the assistance of a pilot. Request for a pilot from the VTCS should be made at least 2 hours before the beginning of reberthing and request a tug from the Port dispatcher, if necessary.

Territory of the Reni Sea Commercial Port includes the length of the fenced coastal strip on the left bank of the Danube between the points 66.7 and 69.3 miles. The port water area is a part of the Danube at the left bank between the points 62.5 and 71 miles, which is delineated by a conventional state boundary.

Entry and departure of ships to and from the port is permitted throughout 24 hours, with certain exceptions: Entry and exit of seagoing ships and river sea ships to and from the backwaters at wind 28.3kts or over is prohibited. Depending on the ship's size and meteorological and other conditions, the ISPS will decide on the possible entry/exit of a ship into the backwaters at night on a case by case basis. When navigating in the Port water area all ships, except hydrofoils, should proceed at a speed of 8km/hr maximum when moving upstream and 12km/hr when moving downstream, to avoid riverbank erosion. Overtaking within the Port water area is prohibited, except for hydrofoils. Turnaround areas for sea going ships are allocated at 70.6 and 64 miles areas, while the ships proceeding to berths 15-21 may turn around by dropping anchor in 67.2 mile area.

Range 6.0m.

When approaching the port's waters, all seagoing and river vessels shall contact the Vessel Traffic Control on VHF to receive permission to enter the port or transit the ports waters. Co-ordination between all ships and the VTCS is compulsory for all ships longer than 20m as well as for vessels engaged in towage and pushing. Radar traffic control station (VTCS) is located in the ISPS building. Contact by phone: 76-48, VHF Ch 73, call sign "Reni - Port Control", watch on Ch 16. The VTCS issues permits to vessels and boats to enter the Port waters, movements in the Port water area, change berths or anchorages, enter or leave the backwater and monitor movement of vessels within the Port water area. The Master of a vessel is obliged, despite the obtained registration of the departure with the ISPS, to obtain the VTCS permit for leaving the Port after notification on the departure number. When approaching the 65.5 mile from downstream and the 67.5 mile from upstream (the VTCS visibility zone), Masters of ships are obliged to establish a contact with the VTCS.

There are 6 pusher tugs available. 1 x 2,000hp, 1 x 820hp, 1 x 670hp pusher tug, 2 x 600hp and 1 x 45hp pusher tug all available. Vessels are advised to use two tugs when mooring in backwaters. Vessels in ballast are required to use a tug to turn. Turnaround of sea going vessels to proceed backwards is accomplished in the area of 70.6 mile. Turnaround with the aid of port tugs is accomplished near berths with the permission of the VTCS. Turnaround of sea going vessels longer than 100m during S winds must be made with the aid of port tugs. All other ships are advised to turn around with the aid of a tug to prevent them being caught beam on to the stream for longer than necessary.

Prevailing winds: Variable. The Port roads are open to winds of all directions. South winds are particularly dangerous as the vessels (barges) can be turned around and fall foul on a berth or the river bank. Upon receipt of a storm warning the ISPS duty shift officer informs the ships in the roads via VHF Ch 16, and the ships laying at berths via a messenger or through the agent.
