Data Entry Officer to remotely support Nauru: Sustainable and Climate-Resilient Connectivity Project (formerly Port Redevelopment Project)
Program Background
Nauru is an independent republic with a land area of only 21 square kilometres and a population of 11,300. Nauru imports over 95% of its goods by sea transport and its port facilities are therefore a vital link for the country’s current and potential exports (phosphate, dolomite aggregate and fish). Effective and safe operations of the port are central to maintaining trade and commerce with the region and world. Nauru does not have the benefit of a protected port to facilitate international trade. All shipping operations are limited to two small boat harbors, one on the western coast (Aiwo) and the other on the east coast (Anibare). As the only outer harbor that can be used for bulk container handling and unloading fuel, Aiwo port is a lifeline for the country. The existing Aiwo port includes a boat harbor (constructed in 1907), anchorage and a mooring system (consisting of eight buoys), container yard and Nauru Maritime and Port Authority (NMPA) offices and buildings. The mooring system is the only facility capable of berthing ships visiting Nauru. The mooring system is limited by the weather and in particular wind direction and velocity; when the mooring system is damaged or requiring repair, ships are forced to off-load while floating in the open sea. The port has no direct access to berthing ships, and all cargo and containers are manually handled and transferred to container yard by pusher barges.
Aiwo Port is planned to be redeveloped to allow construction of 30m wide wharf adjacent to a 50m wide berth pocket dredged into the reef with an approximately 170m long breakwater on the seaward side. The project also includes construction of onshore port facilities including buildings, container yard, peripheral fence, and road pavements, fire and sewerage system complying international maritime standards safety requirements.
