Dutch port operating company APM Terminals (APMT) has chosen the Navis General Cargo Terminal Operating System for the Port of Salalah in Oman, which is said to be a key Arab Gulf regional gateway.
By providing real-time data, Navis will help the port digitise its processes related to general cargo shipments, billing workflow and terminal operations.
Navis deployed the General Cargo Terminal Operating System to enable the optimisation of terminal operations.
This system will enable the port to improve access to timely data and performance metrics, maximise efficiency of the terminal as well as enhance operations planning and resource scheduling.
The port has a concession agreement as the terminal authority and operator within APMT terminal’s network.
It manages general cargo shipments via 12 berths. It also handles the transshipment of more than 17 million metric tonnes of limestone, gypsum, cement, project cargo, liquid bulk, and other commodities per annum.
