The state-of-the-art terminal at Jebel Ali at present has a capacity of 857,000 cubic meters that caters for a wide range of clean petroleum products. Its strategic location and dedicated deepwater berths make it an ideal hub for make and break-of-bulk within the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and East Africa, as well as for consolidation of cargoes bound for destinations in Europe, the US and within Asia.

Coupled with Dubai’s excellent on-shore infrastructure, the terminal provides safe, swift and cost efficient turnarounds. It is located within the Jebel Ali Free Zone, allowing products to be stored free of duties and taxes.
