DMEA: King Abdullah Port reduces ship waiting times

Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah Port has partnered with two marine fuel and service providers to reduce ship waiting times as part of a commitment to provide fuel supply and bunkering services to every vessel entering the facility.

Jay New, CEO of King Abdullah Port, said in a statement: “The provision of bunker supplies at King Abdullah Port is not just an added service; it’s a significant stride in our continuous effort to enhance customers’ value.” He continued: “This move aligns seamlessly with our unwavering commitment to expanding our maritime services spectrum and reinforces our dedication to serving our customers better each day.”

The partnership involves two companies: Western Fuel Supply for Petroleum Products Co. and Minerva Bunkering. Together they will help position the port as a key international logistics hub, strategically located at the crossroads of three continents.
