Oman terminal tender

The Port of Duqm Company (PoDC) is seeking a terminal operator to take on a 30-year licence to develop and operate its new container terminal.

Phase one of the terminal has “target capacity of 1.7 Million TEU and scope for terminal expansion,” said the PoDC.

Marine infrastructure, yard paving and buildings are already available.

PoDC is a 50:50 joint venture between the Government of the Sultanate of Oman (represented by Asyad Group) and Consortium Antwerp Port (CAP).

The greenfield, multipurpose Port of Duqm is part of the SEZAD project (Special Economic Zone Authority of Duqm) in the Sultanate of Oman.

The Port of Duqm is being developed into an integrated, multimodal logistics hub, encompassing maritime links, a well-connected road network, and a fully operational airport and railway system.

The deadline for Expressions of Interest is 9 September.
