Port of Surabaya

Surabaya’s Tanjung Perak port brings together several container terminals within a major coastal freight complex. TPS Surabaya, Nilam and Berlian are among the facilities handling container movements, giving shipping lines and cargo owners several distinct terminal locations within the wider port system.

Container operations combine vessel berths with yards and handling equipment ashore. Terminal planning uses scheduled berthing windows, while the sequence of ship calls depends on cargo volumes, equipment readiness and conditions at each facility. The individual terminal therefore matters when arranging a shipment through Surabaya.

The port also has a passenger role, with Tanjung Perak serving sea travellers alongside its freight activities. Together, the terminals connect the city’s commercial economy with maritime transport, supporting the movement of goods and people through separate parts of the waterfront.
