General Cargo and Liquid Bulk

In 2015, the port added a deep-water General Cargo and Liquid Bulk Terminal with a capacity of 20 million tons per annum (mtpa) of dry bulk commodities and over 6 million tons of liquid products. The 1,266-meter-long quay facility is located on the leeward side of southern breakwater at the Port and provides two 320 meter-long General Cargo berths, and two 300 meter-long Liquid Bulk berths.

It is able to handle a wide range of vessels, ranging from naval ships, to vessels handling limestone, cement, livestock, project cargo and other dry bulk commodities. A dedicated pipe corridor links the new liquid bulk terminal directly with one of our customers operating within the port, and in the future, an extension will connect with the Salalah Free Zone where new customers are setting up their plants.
