# Didon Terminal (TN DID)

**UN/LOCODE:** TN DID  
**Country:** Tunisia  
**Water Body:** Mediterranean Sea; North Atlantic Ocean  
**Harbor Size:** Small  
**Harbor Type:** Open Roadstead  
**GPS:** 33.7833, 11.9000

Listed under UN/LOCODE TN DID, the Didon Terminal is not a commercial harbour but an offshore crude-oil loading point about 75 km off Tunisia in the Gulf of Gabès. Oil from the Didon field – discovered in 1975 and on stream since 1998 – is piped subsea to a floating storage and offloading (FSO) unit, where it is transferred to tankers. No containers, general cargo or project shipments are handled here, and there is no conventional hinterland or customs connection. For forwarders the site has no freight relevance; commercial cargo moves through the Tunisian ports of Gabès, Sfax or Zarzis. Tanker operators should treat Didon as an offshore loading point rather than a port with shoreside facilities.
