ACT
Aden Container Terminal (ACT) is the hub of choice in the Middle East, with strong support from major shipping lines. Our major customers include APL, Pacific International Lines (PIL), ICFS, and others.

ACT is the cornerstone of the Aden Free Zone. In 2002, ACT achieved a throughput of 388,450 Twenty-foot Equivalent Units (TEUs).

ACT, which is being developed in three phases, received its first container vessels on 19 March 1999. When fully completed, ACT will have 1,650m of quay length and provide capacity of an annual throughput of more than 1.5 million TEUs.

ACT's quay cranes are equipped with 40-tonne lifting capacity and 18-row across operations. And in anticipation of further throughput growth and new shipping lines calling at ACT, a fifth ship-to-shore gantry quay crane was commissioned on 1 June 2002.

OPM (The Container Terminal Operator)

Experience That Counts

OPM is made up of a group of former exective directors and high caliber professionals hailing from the Port of Singapore's Corporate Division, Singapore Terminals Division and International Business Division.

They contributed from the inception of container operations in the 70s culminating in the introduction of Automated Guided Vehicles in the 90s, the development from a single terminal to four terminals in Singapore and ten terminals overseas and from mega- transshipment hub to main country gateways. The defining advantage with such a formidable team is succinctly encapsulated in our tagline "experience that counts".
