Bangladesh authorities are processing a proposed appointment of Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea Gateway Terminal as operator of Chittagong Container Terminal, The Financial Express reported on 12 October 2026.
The report cites a Shipping Ministry letter directing the port authority to process the appointment. RSGT International has expressed interest in several port projects under public-private partnership arrangements.
RSGT already operates Patenga Container Terminal, where operations began in June 2024. The additional Chittagong role remains described as a proposed appointment, rather than a completed handover.
