Red Sea Container Terminal No. 1 at Sokhna Port

 

Red Sea Container Terminal No. 1 at Sokhna Port is distinguished as a fully automated terminal. All its operational elements, from management systems to cranes, are automated. This includes both RTG cranes and giant Ship-to-Shore (STS) quay cranes, all of which operate using advanced intelligent technological systems to achieve peak performance rates.

The terminal relies on sophisticated operating systems, including:

  • Terminal Operating System (TOS): Controls container movement in real-time.
  • Tracking Systems: Utilizes GPS and RFID technologies.
  • Centralized Control Rooms: For crane operation and yard monitoring.
  • Eco-friendly Technologies: Designed to reduce emissions and maximize energy efficiency.


The terminal is operated according to the highest international standards, enhancing the port's capacity to receive the world’s largest shipping lines. This supports Egypt’s position as a vital pivotal hub in global supply chains as part of the state’s comprehensive plan.
This project aligns with the national strategy to transform Sokhna Port into a regional hub and increase Egypt’s share of the global transit trade market. Furthermore, it serves Egyptian exports by opening new markets through direct shipping services. It enhances Egypt's competitiveness against countries with similar industries by providing integrated transport and handling solutions connecting maritime terminals with railways, the High-Speed Electric Train, and multimodal transport services.
