Runways (1)
- 03/21 · 3,000 m / 9,843 ft · 60 m wide · Asphalt · ILS ILS CAT I (RWY 21 only)
Nigeria's principal Niger Delta gateway supporting the oil & gas sector; single runway (03/21, 3,000 m x 60 m, asphalt), confirmed via Wikipedia and SkyVector. ILS CAT I is reported for RWY 21 only (RWY 03 non-precision/visual) — consistent with general aviation references but not independently re-confirmed against a primary AIP/approach-chart source. Pax figure is CY2024 full-year total (1,190,000), confirmed independently via Wikipedia's airport statistics (which also give 15,667 aircraft movements and ~4,050 t cargo for 2024), up from ~1.08M in 2009. Elevation of 91 ft / 28 m matches Wikipedia and SkyVector; OurAirports lists a slightly different 87 ft / 27 m, retained 91 ft as the majority-sourced figure. New-terminal specifics (28,000 sqm, 4 boarding bridges, 24 check-in counters, ~7M pax design capacity) are as previously reported but could not be independently re-verified against a primary FAAN source — the terminal's commissioning date (25 Oct 2018) and the two-terminal structure are confirmed by both Wikipedia and FAAN's own page. Contact number listed is FAAN's general line as published on the airport's own FAAN.gov.ng page rather than an airport-specific direct line.

Ground handling
Available · 2 providers
Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO Aviance)
One of Nigeria's two FAAN-concessioned ground handlers (a duopoly with SAHCO), providing aircraft handling, passenger facilitation and cargo handling for airline operators nationwide including Port Harcourt International Airport; confirmed via NAHCO's own network listing (Lagos, Kano, Abuja, Port Harcourt). A live 2026-08-31 check of AC-U-KWIK's DNPO directory (which is business/GA-trip-support focused) lists a separate handler, ForeverJet Aviation Solutions, for that segment — NAHCO/SAHCO's presence is the airline-side concession, a different commercial layer.

Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc (SAHCO)
SAHCO (SIFAX Group) is one of Nigeria's two FAAN-concessioned ground handlers, active nationwide including at Port Harcourt; the UN Logistics Cluster's PHC assessment is cited as stating SAHCOL "is set up to provide ground handling service to airport users" at PHC.

Aircraft fuel

Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO Aviance)
Ground handlers at Nigerian airports typically coordinate into-plane fuelling as part of full-service turnaround; the underlying Jet A-1/Avgas bulk supplier at PHC is separately documented as TotalEnergies (see that entry). The UN Logistics Cluster's PHC capacity assessment is cited as stating "NAHCO & SAHCOL handle aviation cargo, aircraft handling, passenger facilitation, and fuelling services" — this same quote recurs consistently across this batch's PHC/SAHCO entries, which is more consistent with a genuine shared source than fabrication, though the document itself could not be re-fetched to confirm verbatim.

Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc (SAHCO)
Coordinates into-plane fuelling as part of ground handling at PHC per the UN Logistics Cluster's PHC assessment (cited: "the two companies... handle... fuelling services"); underlying bulk supplier documented as TotalEnergies. Document not independently re-fetched.

TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria (Aviation Fuel)
Documented as one of the fuel & oil suppliers servicing Port Harcourt International Airport in the UN Logistics Cluster's PHC Digital Logistics Capacity Assessment, which references "two Fuel & Oil Suppliers" at PHC (only TotalEnergies named clearly in the source; the second name is garbled/incomplete). Corrected from the original draft: the cited Jet A-1 price of "USD 83.7/litre" is not a plausible figure (roughly 40-80x normal world Jet A-1 pricing) and looks like a decimal-place or unit extraction error — dropped rather than repeated. The cited Avgas price of USD 2.15/litre is plausible and retained, though not.

Masters Energy Aviation (Masters Energy Oil & Gas Ltd)
Company's own site documents a dedicated Port Harcourt Airport aviation-fuel asset (combined tankage of 1.8 million litres) plus an 11.2-million-litre coastal terminal at Masters Energy City, Iwofe, Port Harcourt; airport tankage is described as "under progressive development," i.e. not yet fully operational for into-plane supply.

Aircraft cabin grooming/cleaning is a standard component of full-service ramp/turnaround handling offered by major African ground handlers such as NAHCO; no PHC-specific cleaning-only contract could be independently confirmed.

Ground support equipment
Unconfirmed
Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc (SAHCO)
Reported deployment of a 35-tonne-capacity self-propelled heavy-duty main-deck loader (Air Marrel LAM 35, rated up to 40-tonne containers) to SAHCO's Port Harcourt station for heavy cargo loading; PHC's traffic is not predominantly wide-body, so this equipment more plausibly serves oil-and-gas equipment/charter freight than scheduled wide-body ops. Whether this GSE is available to third-party operators or is for SAHCO's own ramp use only is not confirmed.

Cargo handling

Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO Aviance)
General cargo handling is part of NAHCO's core nationwide service line. The original draft's claim of a dedicated "NAHCO Cargo Complex" at PHC cited a Lufthansa Cargo PHC station page, but Lufthansa Cargo does not appear to operate scheduled freighter service to Port Harcourt (its Nigerian gateway is Lagos), and a live AC-U-KWIK DNPO directory check does not list NAHCO at all. Treating the dedicated-facility claim as unconfirmed pending a primary source; corrected from "available". · Mon-Fri 09:00-17:00 (import/export windows differ per original source; not)

Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc (SAHCO)
Handles oil-sector and dangerous-goods cargo at PHC; SAHCOL's PHC warehouse is described in the logistics capacity assessment as sized for the airport's roughly 16 weekly domestic/international/ad-hoc operators. Independently corroborated within this same dataset: the project's own Abuja (ABV) provider record notes SAHCO's May 2020 Air France cargo-warehousing contract explicitly references "SAHCO's existing Air France warehousing in Lagos and Port Harcourt" — direct third-party confirmation of a genuine PHC cargo-warehousing operation.

Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) — AVSEC
FAAN self-provides passenger and baggage security screening at every airport it operates, including PHC, through its AVSEC arm — this is a structural fact of Nigerian airport operations, not PHC-specific sourcing. The UN Logistics Cluster's PHC assessment is cited describing 100% checked-baggage screening (X-ray/CT/explosive-trace detection) and standardized/elevated passenger screening; the CT-scanner-level detail is a fairly high-end claim for a non-hub Nigerian airport and could not be, so treat that specific equipment detail with caution even though FAAN AVSEC's presence itself is certain. Contact shown is FAAN's head-office Director of Public Affairs, not a PHC station-specific line, and was not.
