It was a port that emerged in the 1940s with the development of the petroleum industry, with roads and railways leading to the capital and the center of large oil fields. It is approximately 50 kilometers southeast of Manama, the capital of Bahrain, and there is a railway connecting to Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. In addition to railways, there are also highways connecting the capital and important industrial and commercial towns in the east. The sea route extends 10 nautical miles north to Rasnura Port, 15 nautical miles east to Suleiman Port, 308 nautical miles to Zayed Port, and 2160 nautical miles to Kolombo Port. Aviation utilizes Singherland Airport.
The port is built at the southern end of an underwater , with four protruding embankments extending parallel to the north. Ships enter the port from northeast to northwest along the . Due to the narrow water area and a water depth of only 4.5-6.0 meters, the Donggang Pond in the harbor is only used for small boats to berth, and ocean going ships enter and exit the two major end ponds in the central and western regions. The water depth along the Zhonggang Pool is 0-14 meters, and there are 22 deep-water berths with a length of 150-240 meters. Among them, berth 1 is used for grain, berth 10 is used for fertilizer, berth 21-22 is multi-purpose, and the rest are used for general cargo. The water depth along the west port pool is 12-14 meters. At the beginning of the 1980s, there were 15 berths with a length of 180-240 meters. Among them, berths 23-27 were container berths, berths 36-38 were cement imports, and others were used for general cargo. There is also a dangerous goods berth at the top of the West Pier, which is also a reserved development port area and can accommodate an additional 15 berths.
The port was first built in the mid-1970s and is a well-equipped modern port, mainly importing goods from eastern Saudi Arabia.climate

What Is LCL Sea Freight?
LCL sea freight (or LCL ocean freight) stands for Less than Container Load sea freight. When choosing this option, you'll only be using a fraction of a shipping container's capacity. The remaining space within that container will be filled by goods belonging to other people or businesses.
LCL ocean freight is a good shipping option if you're transporting small volumes of cargo across seas and want to consolidate the ocean freight cost by sharing the container.
What Is FCL Sea Freight?
FCL sea freight (or FCL ocean freight) stands for Full Container Load sea freight. As the name suggests, this option means you'll be using, and paying for, the entire container so that only your cargo occupies the space.
FCL ocean freight is a good option if you know you have enough cargo to fill an entire shipping container. The size of the shipping containerwill also determine if this is the right option for you. For instance, you might be able to fill a 20-foot shipping container but not a 40-foot one. Many businesses also opt for FCL sea freight if they can almost fill a container making the difference in cost barely noticeable.
