Sharjah is the
third largest of the seven emirates that
makes up the Federation of the United Arab
Emirates (UAE). Sharjah's industrial base
is one of the largest in the UAE, and many
are surprised to learn it is home to nearly
half of all UAE based industries. The Emirate
of Sharjah has been associated with maritime
trading in the Gulf for centuries.
Sharjah's
main port is Port Khalid located in
the commercial hearth of Sharjah city,
approximately 18 km from Dubai city.
Port Khalid is operating with 13 deepwater
berth facilities, and handles a wide
variety of tonnage ranging from ro-ro
ships, pure car carriers, reefer ships,
bulk carriers to traditional dhows.
Port Khalid's ideal location and infrastructure
makes it an ideal port from which to
service both national and international
transshipment cargoes.
The recent substantial onshore and offshore
gas finds have further prompted Sharjah
to invest in its industrial base with
the establishment of Hamriyah Free Zone
and Hamriyah Port. Hamriyah Port is
now being developed as a multi-purpose
port. With a draft of 15 meters, the
port can accommodate some of the largest
vessels in the world. the expansion
of Hamriyah Port with additional 3 berths
will be completed by Sept 05. |
