Region's hub in the making

The opening of the new Khalifa Bin Salman Port should cement Bahrain's traditional place at the centre of transport and trade in the region, particularly for destinations in the Upper Gulf.

The port is strategically positioned in the middle of the Arabian Gulf and offers capacity, efficient operations, fast turn-around times for vessels and short transit times.

Its location in the heart of the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) should make Bahrain an ideal choice for carriers transshipping containers to the important and rapidly expanding Upper Gulf region, particularly the markets of Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and northern Iran.
