RU VYG Port (Vyborg) – Terminals, Draft, Agents

About This Seaport

Around 1.1 million tonnes of cargo and some 3,000 vessel calls a year put Vyborg (RU VYG) firmly in the small-port category on Russia's Baltic coast, down from roughly 1.82 million tonnes at its 2021 peak. A channel depth of only about 6.4 metres rules out container operations despite some listings to the contrary; the harbour works dry bulk and breakbulk — coal and coke, mineral fertiliser, pellets, ore, steel, scrap and timber — across several multipurpose public berths that stay open year-round. For scale, Russian seaports moved 884.5 million tonnes in 2025, down 0.4%, of which 271.3 million tonnes went through Baltic basin ports, split into 126.8 million tonnes of dry bulk and 144.5 million tonnes of liquid bulk. A coal terminal is proposed at Primorsk in the Vyborg district with an initial 20 million tonnes a year and scope to reach 25 million, which would squeeze smaller terminals further. Road and rail link the port to north-west Russia and corridors toward the EU border, though sanctions and customs restrictions heavily limit trade with the EU. Containerised and reefer cargo routes through St Petersburg, while Vysotsk and Primorsk take the larger bulk and oil volumes.
