UN/LOCODE IRCYT · Iran

CYRUS TERMINAL (Soroosh Terminal)

IRCYT is an offshore crude-oil loading terminal in the central northern Persian Gulf, approximately 50 nautical miles west-southwest of Kharg Island. The terminal is also described as Soroosh Terminal and was formerly known as Cyrus or Syrus Terminal.

This is not a conventional container, breakbulk or multipurpose port. Its operating model is based on a single tanker mooring, the floating storage unit (FSU) “Soreena”, a single-point buoy mooring (SBM), and a subsea or offshore pipeline connection to the Soroosh Oil Field. Crude loading is performed through a bow-to-bow tandem mooring arrangement, subject to terminal approval, weather, vessel compatibility and marine-operational instructions.

Port code	IRCYT
Country / location	Iran · central northern Persian Gulf
Coordinates	29.0333329° N, 49.4666672° E
Reported water depth near FSU	Approximately 40–45 m
FSU storage capacity	2,200,000 barrels of crude oil

Key Highlights

Offshore tanker terminal: Cargo operations rely on an SBM, FSU and tandem mooring rather than a conventional quay.
Crude-oil focus: The terminal is connected by pipeline to the Soroosh Oil Field and is designed around crude export operations.
Large tanker capability: The supplied port record states that tankers up to 300,000 DWT may be handled in the specified tandem arrangement, subject to confirmation by the terminal.
Marine-service dependency: Supply ships and tugs are the principal recorded vessel categories, indicating a strong requirement for offshore support coordination.
Conventional container assumptions do not apply: FCL/LCL booking, container yard planning and inland rail transfer should not be treated as standard services at IRCYT.

Facilities & Services

SBM and tanker mooring

Loading is performed through a single tanker mooring and bow-to-bow tandem arrangement. Vessel suitability, mooring procedures and hose configuration require advance terminal confirmation.

Floating storage unit

The FSU “Soreena” provides floating crude storage and is attached aft to the SBM. Storage planning must be coordinated with the terminal’s nominated loading program.

Pipeline connection

The terminal is connected to the Soroosh Oil Field by pipeline. Cargo availability and nomination depend on field, pipeline and FSU operating conditions.

Offshore support

Supply vessels and tugs support marine operations. Tug requirements, standby arrangements and launch or transfer procedures should be confirmed case by case.

Container and general-cargo facilities

No container yard, regular FCL/LCL service, rail terminal, public warehouse or general-cargo berth is established by the supplied port record; these services must not be assumed.

Routes & Transit Times

Primary trade pattern: IRCYT is relevant to crude-oil export movements from the Persian Gulf, with onward carriage determined by the nominated tanker and buyer’s discharge port.
Feeder or container routing: Standard liner schedules should not be applied to this offshore terminal. Containerized cargo normally requires evaluation of another suitable Iranian gateway and separate inland or coastal arrangements.
Time planning: Actual loading windows depend on cargo nomination, FSU inventory, tanker readiness, mooring compatibility, weather, sea state, pilotage or tug arrangements, and terminal clearance.
Voyage estimate: Our service team can calculate an indicative ocean schedule only after receiving the nominated vessel, load port instructions, discharge port, cargo specification and contractual laycan. No fixed transit time or sailing frequency should be promised in advance.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Production hinterland: The operational hinterland is the offshore Soroosh Oil Field and its pipeline system, rather than a conventional road-and-rail industrial catchment.
Principal cargo: Crude oil is the relevant cargo profile. Cargo grade, density, temperature, compatibility and commercial specification must be confirmed from the shipper, terminal and buyer.
Marine supply chain: Offshore support vessels, tugs, marine stores and operational supplies are associated with the terminal’s recorded vessel activity.
Alternative gateway planning: For containers, project cargo, packaged dangerous goods or general merchandise, our team should assess a conventional Iranian port and the complete inland delivery route instead of routing directly to IRCYT.

Operations & Compliance

Vessel nomination: Submit vessel particulars, dimensions, deadweight, draft, manifold information, mooring arrangement and cargo details early. The supplied record reports a maximum recorded vessel length of 176 m, maximum draft of 5 m and maximum deadweight of 1,475 t, but these figures should not be treated as the tanker-loading limit.
Dangerous-goods control: Crude oil is regulated dangerous cargo. Safety Data Sheets, cargo declarations, flash-point or specification information, emergency contacts and required tanker documentation must be aligned with the terminal and applicable maritime requirements.
Laycan and readiness: Loading windows may change because of weather, marine safety restrictions, FSU availability, tanker readiness or operational constraints. Our service team should maintain a written confirmation trail for laycan, NOR, readiness and notice requirements.
Sanctions, customs and banking review: Iran-related trade requires transaction-specific screening of parties, vessel, ownership, insurance, banks, cargo origin and destination. Clearance, documentation and payment feasibility must be verified before commitment; our team does not treat a booking confirmation as regulatory approval.

Shipping Tips

Provide the nominated tanker’s full particulars and intended loading window before requesting a firm operational quotation.
Separate offshore loading costs from ocean freight and clearly identify possible tug, standby, survey, inspection, agency, insurance and documentation charges; final amounts require terminal and vessel confirmation.
For crude cargo, prepare the commercial invoice, certificate of origin where applicable, cargo specification, SDS, charter-party or voyage instructions, bill-of-lading details and regulatory declarations consistently across all parties.
For non-bulk cargo, ask our service team to compare alternative Iranian gateways, since IRCYT should not be assumed to provide container handling, public warehousing, customs examination yards or routine inland trucking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I book a standard container to IRCYT?: No standard container service is established by the supplied port data. Our team will first verify cargo type and then evaluate a conventional gateway if the shipment is containerized.
What cargo is normally handled at this terminal?: The terminal is primarily associated with crude-oil loading from the Soroosh Oil Field through the FSU “Soreena” and SBM system.
Can every VLCC load at IRCYT?: No. The record states that tankers up to 300,000 DWT can be exported to in the described arrangement, but acceptance remains subject to vessel dimensions, mooring compatibility, cargo system, weather and terminal approval.
Is the reported 5 m maximum draft a tanker restriction?: Not necessarily. The supplied record describes 5 m as the maximum draft of vessels recorded as entering the port, while the offshore FSU vicinity is reported at 40–45 m water depth. It should not be used alone to approve a tanker.
What information does our service team need for a quotation?: Send the cargo grade and quantity, nominated vessel, DWT and dimensions, loading window, discharge port, chartering party, consignee, documentation requirements and the intended commercial structure. We will then coordinate an operational and compliance review.

Data Sources & Provenance

Primary basis: the supplied IRCYT port record, including the UN/LOCODE, terminal name, coordinates, offshore location, FSU name and capacity, SBM arrangement, reported water depth, tanker-loading description, vessel-category observations and recorded vessel particulars.

Verification boundary: operational acceptance, laycan, vessel compatibility, marine restrictions, customs procedures, sanctions controls, charges and service availability can change and must be confirmed with the relevant terminal, vessel interests, authorities and counterparties before shipment commitment.

This page distinguishes supplied port-record facts from operational guidance. Where a facility, schedule, tariff, regulatory decision or transit time is not confirmed in the record, our service team will obtain transaction-specific confirmation rather than assume availability.
