Ship chandlers & ship supply at Abu Dhabi AEAUH

Khalifa Port, midway between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, is AD Ports Group’s deep-water flagship: 18.5 m alongside, 10,795 m of quay across 36 berths, terminals operated for MSC (Abu Dhabi Terminals), COSCO (CSP Abu Dhabi — 20,000+ TEU vessels), CMA and ro-ro, next to the KEZAD economic zone.^[1,2]

—Zayed Port is the city harbour, working since 1968: 21 berths on 3,450 m of quay at 13 m for general cargo, dry bulk, breakbulk and cruise — the Abu Dhabi Cruise Terminal lives here.^[3,4]

—Musaffah Port serves the industrial area over a ~53 km channel (200 m wide, 9 m max depth, two-way for Panamax-type bulkers).^[5]

—Scale, as of H1 2025: AD Ports handled 3.62 million TEU (+21% year on year), roughly 85% of it through Khalifa Port.^[6]

—Pilotage is compulsory for commercial vessels navigating the channels or shifting berth (per the published Pilotage Directions; limited exemption schemes exist for small vessels). Current directions for Khalifa, Zayed, Musaffah and Al Dhafra ports are published by the Harbour Master (updated June 2025).^[7]

—Anchorage and mooring in emirate waters need a permit from Abu Dhabi Maritime, applied for by the agent or master before or on arrival.^[8]

—Vessel calls, declarations and marine-service requests run through the Port Community System.^[9]

—An agent in practice (permits route via the agent or master — see above) and the PCS declarations.^[8]

—Provisions, stores, fresh water and waste are arranged commercially via licensed suppliers and your agent — the authority pages publish no availability specifics (see gaps). Post a requirement and suppliers serving Abu Dhabi answer with sealed bids; suppliers can activate Abu Dhabi — Khalifa and Zayed per-terminal supply terms are still open ground.

—Directory position 24°28′N 054°22′E corresponds to Zayed Port (the city harbour); Khalifa Port lies farther north-east along the coast.^[1,3]
