Lobé waterfalls, Cameroon 2017

It has an estimated population of 55,401.[3] It services sea traffic in the Gulf of Guinea and also lies near the terminus of the Chad-Cameroon pipeline. The Lobé Waterfalls are nearby and there is a road inland, through the Littoral Evergreen Forest, as far as Bipindi and Lolodorf where native communities of Pygmies are found.

البنية البلدية

Kribi is more of a municipality than a developed town. The town is divided into Kribi Première, with its main town, Massaka, and Kribi Deuxième, with its main town, Dombé.

الصحة العامة

A January 2024 study[4] found high levels of parasitic worm eggs and larvae in waters along Kribi's famed beach. The species included tapeworms and nematode worms that cause significant morbidity in humans, likely passed from human fecal material in waste water.

Kribi Power Development Company (KPDC) has built a natural gas-powered electricity generating plant, Kribi Power Station, in the community of Mpolongwe, approximately 10 كيلومتر (6.2 mi), north of the Kribi central business district. The 216 MW plant that cost US$390 million (CFA:176.3 billion) to build,[5] came on line in 2013. It is now owned by Globeleq[6] A second phase expansion is planned.

الميناء

Near Kribi is the location of a proposed port for the export of iron ore from about 500 كيلومتر (310 mi) away and also bauxite. Since there is no natural harbour at Kribi, the port itself would be several kilometres offshore where deepwater of at least 20 متر (66 ft) is suitable for large Capesize ships.[7] It is also the location for the Kribi Lighthouse.

By 2017, the port development had started,[8] and by 2020 the port was being developed by Louis Berger.[9]

The port will be served by railways of two different gauges, 1435mm and 1000mm. There will be a new 130 km rail link between the port and the existing metre gauge network at Edéa. Dual gauge sleepers could be installed so that the new lines are compatible with the proposed African Integrated High Speed Rail Network (AIHSRN).

The port of Kribi is supported by Autonome de Kribi[10] It is also cooperates with the Cameroon National Ports Authority (APN)[11] The port of Kribi is a member of the International Association of Ports and Harbors (IAPH).[12][13]

The iron ore will come from mines near Mbalam in Cameroon and near Nabeba in Republic of Congo. The mines would have an output of approximately 35 million tonnes per year, with a 30-year or so lifespan.[14] This line is to be standard gauge lines (1435mm) with a 37.5t axle load. In 2021, a contract was let to build the rail line to Mbalam.[15]

منجم البوكسيت

It is proposed to connect the port of Kribi to a new bauxite mine in the north of Cameroon at Minim, Martap with a metre gauge (1000mm) 20t axle load railway.[16][17][18] A link line junctions from the Camrail line at Edéa and proceeds 110 km to Kribi.
