About This Seaport
Tanker operators, not container lines, are the customers at Mjimwema Terminal off Dar es Salaam. The facility is a Single Point Mooring (SPM) — an offshore buoy berth — where crude carriers of up to about 150,000 dwt discharge at rates near 2,500 m³/h. Submarine pipelines carry the oil ashore to Dar es Salaam storage and onward through the TAZAMA pipeline to Ndola in Zambia. No containerised or general-cargo handling takes place here; the terminal is dedicated purely to energy imports. Boxes and breakbulk for the region move through the main Port of Dar es Salaam, while refined products also use the Kurasini Oil Jetty. For petroleum and tanker shipments, Mjimwema is a high-capacity, specialised point of call.
