About This Seaport
Chemicals, fertilizers, farm produce and assorted bulk make up the working cargo of Cuddalore (IN CDL), a small government port on the Tamil Nadu coast of the Bay of Bengal. Sitting at the confluence of the Uppanar and Paravanar rivers, it is an open roadstead where vessels anchor offshore and cargo moves by lighters and steel barges rather than across deep-water quays. Actual throughput is modest, but a 40-year concession to a private operator aims to develop the site around chemical products, with a committed minimum of 300,000 tonnes a year. Road and rail tie the port to its industrial hinterland, while containers and liner services are absent. For boxes or cleared imports, Chennai, Kattupalli or Ennore (Kamarajar) are the practical alternatives.
