The Kolkata Port is the only major riverine port in India.
It is situated some 203 kilometres from the ocean. Its official name is Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port Trust (previously Kolkata Port Trust). The British East India Company built it, making it India's oldest active harbour. Kolkata is a freshwater port where the salinity is constant. The port includes two separate dock systems: the deep water dock at Haldia Dock Complex, Haldia, and the Kolkata Dock at Kolkata.
