About This Seaport
At about 3.2 million TEU in 2024 – up from some 2.3 million in 2023 – Dammam's King Abdulaziz Port is the largest container port on the Arabian Gulf and one of the busiest in the Middle East. Its two container terminals offer nine berths along roughly 2,380 m of quay, run by Saudi Global Ports (a PSA company) and International Port Services (Hutchison Ports). Beyond containers the port handles general cargo, dry bulk, RoRo and project shipments. Inland reach comes from the Saudi Railways line to Riyadh – effectively a land bridge across the peninsula – plus a dense motorway network serving the Eastern Province and the capital region. Customs clearance runs through Saudi Arabia's ZATCA authority, making Dammam the principal import gateway for the east and centre of the country. For forwarders moving boxes on the Gulf coast, it is the default call. Those weighing alternatives look to the nearby industrial port of Jubail or, on the Red Sea side, to Jeddah Islamic Port.
