Port of Puerto Chacabuco

Puerto Chacabuco (UN/LOCODE CLPCH), a strategic deep‑water terminal on Chile’s Aysén Region, serves as a pivotal gateway for Patagonian bulk commodities, timber, and fishery exports, leveraging its proximity to the Baker and Pascua rivers and the south‑west Pacific maritime corridor. Situated at 45°28′S 72°50′W and operating on America/Santiago time, the port’s robust infrastructure includes berths capable of handling Panamax vessels, advanced grain elevators, refrigerated storage, and multipurpose terminals equipped for containerized cargo. Integrated with regional rail and highway networks, Puerto Chacabuco facilitates efficient hinterland connectivity, supports hydro‑electric project logistics, and underpins Chile’s export diversification and southern supply‑chain resilience.
