The Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani) has announced the addition of Milaha’s new shipping service, “MILAHA INTA GULF EXPRESS,” to King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam.
This new service aims to enhance maritime connectivity between Saudi Arabia and the world while supporting national exports and imports.
This development is part of Mawani’s ongoing efforts to strengthen strategic partnerships with major regional and global shipping lines, aligning with the objectives of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy to establish the Kingdom as a global logistics hub connecting the three continents, SPA reported.
The new shipping service, with a total capacity of 1,015 TEUs, links King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam with the ports of Umm Qasr in Iraq, Hamad in Qatar, Shuwaikh in Kuwait, Jebel Ali in the UAE, and Sohar in Oman.
King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam serves as the Kingdom’s primary port on the Arabian Gulf. It is connected to the Riyadh Dry Port by railway and acts as a vital gateway for goods arriving from around the world to the eastern and central regions of Saudi Arabia.
