Johor Port (Malay:Pelabuhan Johor) is a port inPasir Gudang,Johor,Malaysia, built in 1977.[1][2] It is an integrated multi-purpose port facility providingbulk cargo,container andgeneral cargo services.[3] It is the world's largestpalm oil terminal and ranks third globally in terms ofLME cargo volume.[3] It is the second busiest port in Johor, afterPort of Tanjung Pelepas, which is located in the western part of the state and is the 15th busiest container port in the world.
The Johor Port Authority was established in 1978, with the port being constructed the following year in 1979. The Johor Port Authority was incorporated in 1993, and in 1995 the port was privatized to Johor Port Berhad,[4] which is now a wholly ownedsubsidiary ofMMC Corporation Berhad.[5]

The port's depth of 13.8 meters means it can accommodate drybulk carriers up to 60,000 tonnesdeadweight (DWT). Its gantry crane and the Impsamade level-stuffing[clarification needed] crane can handle 800 tons per hour; the twowharf-side cranes can handle 400tons per hour.
