About This Seaport
Within Nicaragua's energy supply chain, Puerto Sandino ranks as the country's second Pacific port, about 70 km from Managua. Cargo is worked largely through an offshore mooring and by barge, with the site focused on petroleum products plus dry bulk such as agricultural goods and minerals, supported by pipelines and liquid-cargo storage tanks. There is no significant container or liner traffic. A New Fortress Energy FSRU project, paired with a planned 300 MW power plant, is adding an LNG import terminal. Hinterland access runs by road toward Managua and western Nicaragua. For containers and general cargo, Corinto, Nicaragua's principal Pacific port, is the appropriate alternative.
