  Khorfakkan is one of the world’s leading container transshipment ports. It is strategically located on Sharjah’s Indian Ocean coast, outside the sensitive Straits of Hormuz and close to the main east-west shipping routes. It is only three hours from the UAE’s main centers of population, Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi on the Arabian Gulf coast. Khorfakkan’s location makes it an obvious choice for shipping lines with large transshipment volumes, who also require easy access to the UAE hinterland.

Phase 2 of a major expansion has recently been completed, providing 6 Super Post-Panamax gantries, and 4 Mega-max Tandem-Lift cranes on 800 meters of berth, with 16 meters of draft alongside. The total number of gantry cranes now in operation is twenty, and the overall storage space increased to 450,000 square meters.

There is easy access from the open sea and containers are handled by ship-to-shore gantries plus a full complement of yard gantries, RTGs, tractors, trailers, and forklifts. KCT has a storage facility for over 45,000 TEUs, and a 3,000 sq. meters dedicated transit shed and storage area for LCL cargo. KCT also has the capability to accommodate in excess of 1,000 reefer containers at the facility.
