Baha Maritime Sarl is a specialized maritime logistics and support entity operating primarily within the Republic of Guinea in West Africa. Established in 2017, the company functions as a comprehensive ship agency and supply provider, designed to bridge the gap between visiting international vessels and the local port infrastructure. The organization emerged from a collaborative effort between local Guinean professionals and international partners, a structure intended to combine regional navigational knowledge with global service standards to support the region's growing maritime traffic.
Headquartered in Conakry, the nation's capital and primary commercial hub, the company has expanded its operational footprint to cover key industrial locations along the Guinean coast. Its presence extends significantly to the Port of Kamsar, a critical node for the global bauxite and mining trades, as well as Katougouma, Cape Verga, and Konta. This geographic network allows the firm to service a diverse array of maritime traffic, ranging from commercial cargo freighters to specialized bulk carriers engaged in the region’s major extractive industries. Initially operating directly from within the Port of Conakry, the firm later relocated its administrative headquarters to the Camayenne district to facilitate robust communication infrastructure and centralized logistical coordination.
The core of Baha Maritime Sarl’s business involves acting as a protective agent and logistics facilitator for ship owners and charterers. The company manages the complex administrative and physical requirements of port calls, handling arrival and departure formalities, customs processing, and documentation to ensure regulatory compliance. Beyond administrative duties, the firm executes essential husbandry services, including crew changes and the delivery of air-freighted spare parts. Its logistical capabilities encompass the transportation of personnel and goods throughout the Conakry area and further north to remote mining terminals.
To support vessel readiness, the company provides a broad spectrum of technical and general supplies. These provisions range from cabin stores, provisions, and bonded goods to industrial necessities such as lubricants, gases, and marine paints. Furthermore, the organization coordinates technical interventions, such as underwater hull cleaning and vessel surveys, including bunker and condition assessments. By integrating these varied functions, Baha Maritime Sarl operates as a central support node, ensuring that vessels traversing Guinean waters receive the necessary maintenance, supplies, and agency representation to maintain operational continuity.
