Grain and its byproducts, crude oil, refined products, regasified LNG and liquefied gases make up the cargo mix at Puerto Galván, the liquid- and dry-bulk arm of Argentina's Bahía Blanca port complex. Five terminals line the waterfront, including a Mega Terminal and the Louis Dreyfus grain facility rated at around 2,400 t/h, with conveyor systems and silos feeding Panamax bulkers at berths dredged to roughly 13–14 m. Oil companies keep tank farms beside the quays, linked to the berths by pipeline for tankers and gas carriers. Scheduled container services are not based here, so boxed freight is better routed via Buenos Aires. Rail and road tie the berths to the grain and petrochemical hinterland of the Pampas. For forwarders, Galván is a bulk, tanker and project-cargo call rather than a containerised gateway.
