Designed to Provide a State of the Art RoRo Experience

Terminals

The terminals at King Abdullah Port are being planned, overseen, and developed by Ports Development Company, the owner and developer of the port.

The project was initiated in 2010 based on in depth studies of the needs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region. The focus was on providing solutions for highly efficient services for shipping lines and logistics services providers, in terms of capacity and both maritime and in land operational flow.

RO/RO shipping holds a substantial share of importance among numerous shipping services, as it meets the basic needs ranging from daily transportation, various industries, and finally to mega construction projects.

With this ever-growing demand for Ro/Ro services, King Abdullah Port RO/RO Terminal was designed to provide a state of the art brand-new hub for importing vehicles and wheeled equipment and other roll-on/roll-off (RO/RO) shipments.

The Ro/Ro terminal provides advanced services to the automotive sector, including importing, exporting and reshipping cars to markets and ports in neighboring countries, in addition to other commercial and industrial vehicles such as tractors, trucks and heavy wheeled equipment that are used in the implementation of mega projects. It contributes to supporting the economy and providing excellent job opportunities, as well as strengthening partnerships with specialized international companies.

In order to reduce the rate of accidents and provide the necessary logistical services for this type of cargo, a large storage yard adjacent to the Ro/Ro has been established.

  • Cargoes discharge
  • Short-term quayside storage
