Vessel & Rig Agent – Port of Lüderitz
Licensed agency for the Port of Lüderitz – gateway to the Orange Basin, Namibia
Afrishore holds a port agency licence for Lüderitz, the southern Namibian port closest to the Orange Basin: the most active deep-water exploration frontier in the region. Afrishore acts as vessel and rig agent here for rigs, drillships, OSVs, PSVs and survey vessels supporting Orange Basin campaigns.
Lüderitz is a small, weather-exposed port where margins are tight and local knowledge decides outcomes. Afrishore handles port clearance and port-authority liaison, immigration and crew rotation, husbandry, provisions supply, technical support and offshore logistics, co-ordinated with the Walvis Bay base so a single agent covers the whole Namibian coast.
Run alongside Afrishore's Walvis Bay agency, supply-base and crew operations, Lüderitz coverage closes the loop on a fully integrated Namibian shore-side operation.
