About This Seaport
Refined petroleum products — gasoil, jet fuel and fuel oil — define cargo at Sitra rather than boxes or breakbulk. The terminal belongs to state-owned Bapco Energies and ships output from the adjacent Bahrain refinery, whose capacity was lifted from about 267,000 to 380,000 barrels per day under the Bapco Modernization Programme inaugurated in 2024. Seven loading berths and a marine tank farm of about 14 million barrels handle the liquid trades, with exported gasoil meeting a 10 ppm sulphur ceiling. Container and general-cargo traffic is not served here; those volumes move through Khalifa Bin Salman Port at Hidd, Bahrain's sole container gateway. Inland distribution depends entirely on the road network, as the island has no rail link. Forwarders handling tanker parcels or bunkers will find proven capability at Sitra, while box and project cargo belong at Hidd or, regionally, Dammam and Jebel Ali.
