About This Seaport
Despite sitting on one of the world's busiest oil coastlines, Ras Al Ghar is not an oil or container port but a building-materials gateway on the Arabian Gulf, about 150 km north of Dammam near Jubail. Its roughly ten berths and a pier some 3 km long are geared to importing aggregates, cement and construction materials for the Eastern Province's industrial projects. A quay depth around 11 m suits conventional bulk carriers, but no scheduled container line is confirmed here. Part of the facility serves a military function, so commercial access can be restricted and should be cleared in advance. Road links tie the berths to Jubail Industrial City and the corridors toward Dammam and the interior. For containers, customs clearance and liner services, King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam, Jubail Commercial Port or Ras Al-Khair are the appropriate alternatives.
