Abstract: The purpose of this research is to identify the necessary framework to set up a Deep Sea Port in Nigeria. A Deep Sea port is a port that provides for the staging and anchoring or docking of boats, ships, and other marine vessels often for the purpose of loading or unloading products or goods. The difference between deep sea ports and regular ports is that a deep sea port has a longer depth from surface to sea bottom. We will examine the framework and regulatory compliance required to set up a Deep Sea Port. Finally, we will consider the impact of Deep Sea Ports around Nigeria on the Nigerian economy.
Keywords: Legal Framework, boats, ships, and other marine vessels.
