Lumut Maritime Terminal
Strategically located off the Straits of Malacca, on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, in Perak, Lumut Maritime Terminal (LMT) was established as a State Port and a catalyst for economic growth, development, and industrialisation of the State and the nation in general.
Officiated on 24th July 1995, LMT has been operated for more than 25 years. In 2002, LMT began to operate and manage Lekir Bulk Terminal (LBT).
From stockpiling to the exporting or importing stage, LMT provides a one-stop centre with proficiency in port operations. The second phase of Lumut Maritime Terminal (LMT 2) is targeted to complete by the end of 2023. The industrial area’s future expansion will be identified for a Free Zone development.
Key features that will be embedded in Lumut Port Industrial Park 2 (equipped with Port Facilities & Gas Pipeline) to add value and facilitate production and inventory management are:
- Co-location (port / inland terminals / logistic park);
- Warehousing / Logistics facilities for bulk services / trans-shipment for distribution, repacking and relabelling;
- Import and Export platform;
- Hinterland integration and massification; and
- Proximity to the intermodal terminal and access to transportation and logistics services
Lumut Port Industrial Park
The Lumut Port Industrial Park is a 1,000-acre economic powerhouse adjacent to LMT (fully developed and sold). This location currently holds around 150 companies, generating an aggregate annual turnover of USD 2.2 billion and employing 25,000 employees.
Lekir Bulk Terminal
Besides LMT, Lumut Maritime Terminal Sdn Bhd also operates Lekir Bulk Terminal (LBT), a deep-water terminal handling coal for the Janamanjung Power Plant, which produces approximately 30% of the country’s electricity.
LBT operates through Operation & Maintenance Agreement (OMA), operating since 2002 to handle coal from ship to stockyard at TNB Janamanjung Power Plant – Stesen Janakuasa Sultan Azlan Shah, Manjung (4,100MW – M1-M3 + M4 + M5).
Our actions are like ships which we may watch set out to sea, and not know when or with what cargo they will return to port. – Iris Murdoch
