In a related development, CyberLogitec, a Seoul-based provider of terminal operating systems and logistics IT solutions, has secured an agreement to implement its cloud-based OPUS Terminal M platform at Shuwaikh Port in Kuwait. This initiative is part of a broader digital transformation project led by Alghanim Specialties, a Kuwaiti infrastructure firm, aimed at enhancing the operational efficiency of the port’s terminal operations.

OPUS Terminal M is an integrated terminal operating system designed to streamline various aspects of terminal management, including vessel operations, yard and equipment oversight, gate operations, and data handling. By delivering real-time operational visibility and cohesive workflows, the system aims to boost productivity, improve decision-making processes, and promote safer and more efficient terminal activities.

Shuwaikh Port, located near Kuwait City, is one of the country’s primary commercial ports and a vital hub for international trade, handling container shipments, general cargo, and Ro-Ro traffic. The port’s extensive berthing and cargo handling facilities play a critical role in Kuwait’s national supply chain.

The deployment at Shuwaikh Port underscores CyberLogitec’s expertise in providing customized digital terminal solutions across diverse operational contexts and scales. The project also represents an effort to expand the company’s footprint within the Middle East, a region experiencing growing demand for port digitalization.

This agreement follows CyberLogitec’s recent contract with TTI Algeciras in Spain, where it will supply its OPUS Terminal and Digital Twin technologies as part of the terminal’s B1 Expansion Project. These ventures highlight the company’s expanding presence in Europe and the Middle East and its ongoing development in the global smart terminal market.

CyberLogitec continues to diversify its offerings to include Digital Twin technology, operational visibility tools, and AI-enabled smart terminal solutions, supporting ports and terminal operators worldwide in their digital transformation efforts.
