Though Kuantan Port
was traditionally designed to handle general cargo, over the years
the port has adapted to the changing shipping trends and cargo
packaging from break bulk to unitisation, palletisation and containerisation.
Kuantan Port has also developed specialised liquid chemical berths.
To facilitate efficient, faster
and safer transportation of petrochemical products to and from
the petrochemical plants in Gebeng Industrial Estate, to their
respective tank farm facilities at the Port and the Liquid Chemical
Berths, a common pipe-rack running 9 kilometres long had been
constructed.
