Remote oil terminal airstrip serving Nigeria's Niger Delta.
Location
Escravos, Nigeria
Escravos Airport is a small, restricted-access airstrip located in the Escravos area of Delta State, Nigeria, situated in the Niger Delta region near the mouth of the Escravos River. It primarily serves the Chevron Nigeria Limited oil and gas terminal complex, providing air access for workers and personnel associated with offshore and onshore petroleum operations in the area.
The airport is not a public commercial facility and does not handle scheduled passenger services open to the general public. Access is tightly controlled, and operations are centered around rotary-wing and small fixed-wing aircraft supporting the energy industry. Due to its remote and sensitive industrial location, detailed operational information is limited.
Getting to & from
