Located on the Western bank of the al-Faw peninsula at the mouth of the Persian Gulf, Port Umm Qasr is one of the country’s most strategically important ports for international shipping imports and exports. Port Umm Qasr is Iraq’s only deep water port, and has been consistently expanding since the First Gulf War. Now, the port is amenable to virtually all cargo, including construction equipment, automobiles, and other goods.
A significant import into Port Umm Qasr is construction equipment, particularly cement machines. Although already expanded from its previous status as a small fishing town, the city of Umm Qasr is still in need of construction and heavy equipment for both local and national use. Port Umm Qasr can accept Caterpillar, Kobelco, and Komatsu cement machines, among many other brands, for transport into Iraq.
