A single-point mooring at the end of a roughly 9.5-nautical-mile submarine pipeline defines Pangkalansusu, an energy and tanker port on the northeast coast of Sumatra rather than a container facility. Operated around Pertamina's installations, it loads crude oil, LPG and asphalt through several small oil jetties, while the SPM can serve tankers of about 150,000 DWT. A general-cargo wharf handles timber, passengers and inter-island traffic, with quay berths taking vessels up to around 10,000 DWT (LOA 185 m). Containerised import and export cargo is not handled here; box traffic and routine customs clearance run through Belawan, roughly 90 km south. Reefer, RoRo and dangerous-goods services beyond oil and LPG are not confirmed. For shippers, Pangkalansusu is a liquid-bulk call, with hinterland moves made mainly by road.
