MUARA PORT COMPANY
Incorporated on February 21, 2017, the Muara
Port Company Sdn Bhd (MPC) is a joint venture
between Darussalam Assets Sdn Bhd (DA) and
Beibu Gulf Holding (HK) Co Ltd.
The establishment of MPC plays a signi cant
role towards contributing to the nation’s
growth and unlocking the potential of Brunei
Darussalam’s principal port to become a
world-class international hub by diversifying
the economy, increasing connectivity and
sustainable development, and facilitating the
growth of Brunei’s logistics and manufacturing
industries.
MPC provides storage facilities such as the
newly refurbished warehouses and open areas
for storage, stuf ng and unstuf ng services
and other logistics solutions to accommodate
business needs. In addition, MPC provides
freshwater supply to vessels, mooring and
unmooring services, berthing for vessels and
conducive for cargo handling and transfer.
In line with the country’s Smart Nation goals
and keeping abreast with the Industrial
Revolution 4.0, MPC is committed to serving
the demands of digital transformation,
particularly through the introduction of a
Terminal Operating System called TOPS 5.0.
The system was designed to assist in managing
the container terminal operations from vessel
and terminal yard planning, and to monitor real-
time on-site operations, to ensure ef ciency
and productivity.
By generating daily operational reports, this
ensures quality service provisions are rendered
at all times. The cutting edge peripherals and
instrumentations used at the terminal, the
control centre and eets are among the best in
the region, allowing seamless operations at the
terminal. Since the system’s introduction and
based on feedback shared by MPC’s clients,
Muara Port excels in terms of speed, ef ciency,
reliability and safety within the region.
MPC’s formation was a result of the Brunei-
Guangxi Economic Corridor (BGEC) friendship with
the aim to boost bilateral trade and investments,
in line with the Belt and Road initiative.
