Purpose: The main purpose of this paper is to compare the operational performance of two selected eastern ports in Nigeria: Rivers and Delta ports. Methodology: The paper uses secondary data from the Nigeria Port Authority (NPA) Portal from 2008 to 2013. The paper employs multiple regression models to analyze the data using SPSS and Statgraphics software packages. Results: The results show that Rivers port has a higher operational efficiency than Delta port, with an R-squared value of 81.34% and 79.47%, respectively. The results also reveal a significant relationship between cargo throughput and some independent variables, such as vessel traffic, turnaround time, berth occupancy, and number of employees. Theoretical contribution: The paper contributes to the existing literature on port performance measurement and improvement by applying multiple regression models to assess the operational efficiency of two Nigerian ports. The paper also provides empirical evidence on the factors affecting port performance in a developing country context. Practical implications: The paper has practical implications for port authorities, maritime agencies, shipping companies, and the government. The paper suggests some policy recommendations to enhance the operational performance of the eastern ports, such as improving port infrastructure, pricing policy, and strategic competition.
