Operated by Saudi Aramco, the Ju'aymah terminal (UN/LOCODE SA JUT) forms part of the Ras Tanura complex on the Persian Gulf — the world's largest crude-oil export hub, with combined throughput above 6 million barrels per day. It is a pure crude-oil and LPG export facility; no containers, reefer or general cargo are handled. Loading takes place at offshore single-point moorings (SPM/SBM) in an open roadstead, where VLCCs of around 21 m draught berth. Crude flows from the Eastern Province oilfields through Aramco's pipeline network and about 33 million barrels of storage at adjacent Ras Tanura. In 2026 a security incident caused a roughly four-month operational halt across the Ras Tanura complex, with LPG exports at Ju'aymah also suspended; Saudi Aramco resumed crude oil loadings in June 2026, confirmed by Bahri VLCC tracking data. An ongoing SPM-replacement project aims to debottleneck future capacity. For container or breakbulk cargo, King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam is the correct gateway.
