Port services
Stevedoring
The port offers comprehensive vessel services to ensure a smooth port call. These services include mooring and unmooring, towing, electricity, water, and waste management – all easily available from a single point. In addition, several specialized companies in the surrounding area provide high-quality repair and maintenance services for vessels. Access to these services is easily arranged through ship agents, who act as an efficient link between maritime professionals and reliable service providers.
Inkoo Shipping Oy Ab is a member of the Finnish Port Association.
Mooring and unmooring
Mooring or unmooring of a vessel must be ordered in advance through the ship agent. Only by a separate agreement with the port can a vessel operate without using the mooring and unmooring services.
VHF channel 12 is used in connection with mooring and unmooring services.
Towing
Towing assistance can be arranged, but must be ordered in advance through the ship agent.
Electricity
The port can supply electricity (380/220V 50Hz), max 63 A, to vessels at the quay area.
Water
The port provides clean drinking water to vessels.
Waste
Waste notifications must be sent to the ship agency department by email. Based on the notification, service providers are arranged for those types of waste that do not have a reception point at the port.

Icebreaking
During the winter months, icebreakers assist vessels from the sea to the port area and from the port area to the sea, within the prevailing ice restrictions. The VTS, pilot station, and icebreakers in the area provide necessary information about the ice conditions. Information on current ice restrictions is available on the website (BaltIce).
The port is responsible for icebreaking within the port area at its own expense. If the port basin has been icebroken and the vessel’s reported arrival time changes so significantly that the icebreaking operation must be repeated, the vessel itself will bear the cost of the second icebreaking.
If the berth end has been icebroken for the vessel, but the vessel still cannot reach or leave the quay, it must rely on assistance or towing, which it will have to pay for itself.
