Global:Global:LULEA (SELLA)—also written as Luleå, located in Norrbotten County, Sweden, on the Bay of Bothnia / Gulf of Bothnia / northern Baltic Sea—is a strategically important industrial cargo port, iron ore and steel logistics gateway, dry bulk handling location, liquid products port, container-linked logistics point, winter navigation port, icebreaker support base, tug and service craft operating location, and North Sweden supply chain hub. The port is strongly associated with Luleå port operations, northern Sweden mining and steel logistics, iron ore exports, industrial cargo, dry bulk, liquid products, containerized cargo, state icebreakers, harbour icebreaking, tug assistance, winter navigation, Bay of Bothnia vessel movements, and Scandinavian Arctic-adjacent vessel support.
As a recognised UN/LOCODE port location, LULEA supports vessel activity linked to bulk carriers, iron ore vessels, steel and industrial cargo vessels, liquid product vessels, container-linked vessels, general cargo vessels, service craft, tugs, icebreaking tugs, state icebreakers, small commercial vessels, terminal-linked users, and regional logistics operators. Public port references identify SELLA as the UN/LOCODE for Luleå; port references describe Luleå as a strategic Bay of Bothnia hub, Sweden’s third-largest cargo port, and one of Sweden’s EU CORE ports, with strong importance for northern Sweden’s iron ore and industrial supply chains. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
