Bintulu Port’s Samalaju Industrial Port gears up for boost in cargo


According to BPHB group chief executive officer Datuk Mohammad Medan Abdullah, (pic) SIP is expected to handle one million tonnes of new cargo from Malaysian Phosphate Additives (Sarawak) Sdn Bhd (MPAS).

KUCHING: The Samalaju Industrial Port (SIP) operated by Bintulu Port Holdings Bhd (BPHB) group is gearing up for a major boost in cargo-handling volume when an integrated phosphate plant nearby is operational.

The deepsea port, which was designed and built to cater for the energy-intensive industries in the adjacent Samalaju Industrial Park, Bintulu, will also benefit from the commissioning of Press Metal Aluminium Holdings Bhd’s new Phase 3 aluminium smelting plant and the soon-to-be constructed mega-steel plant.
