Up to 1.35 million barrels of crude can sit in storage aboard the BW Adolo, the converted VLCC that is the Dussafu Terminal — an offshore FPSO rather than a quayside port. Moored in the Tortue field of the Dussafu Marin licence off southern Gabon, the unit processes around 40,000 barrels per day and averaged roughly 33,000 bopd gross in 2025. The only cargo handled here is crude oil, lifted by shuttle tankers and carried to overseas refineries; there are no container, breakbulk or RoRo facilities and no landside customs or hinterland link. Operations passed from BW Offshore to BW Energy Gabon in 2025. Freight forwarders moving conventional or containerised cargo to Gabon should route via Owendo (Libreville) or Port-Gentil, the country's commercial gateways. Dussafu is best understood as upstream energy infrastructure, not a trade port.
