About This Seaport
GLFHN, the UN/LOCODE for Faeringehavn (Danish name for Kangerluarsoruseq), no longer marks an active cargo port but an uninhabited former settlement about 50 km south of Nuuk in southwest Greenland. Faroese fishermen founded the site in 1926/27 as the Nordafar emergency base, expanding it into an international fishing port by 1937, but commercial fishing wound down during the 1990s and the last residents left in 2009. The location now functions only as an oil depot with no scheduled cargo handling. Shippers requiring seaport access in this part of Greenland should route through Nuuk instead.
