The government in Saudi Arabia is set to appoint the Red Sea Gateway Terminal (RSGT) to operate the Chittagong Container Terminal (CCT) as part of a public-private partnership (PPP) model. This decision comes after the signing of an agreement with DP World to manage the New Mooring Container Terminal (NCT). The Ministry of Shipping and the Chittagong Port Authority (CPA) are in the process of formalizing the appointment, as indicated by a letter signed by Farzana Hossain, a senior assistant secretary of the Ministry.

The CCT, with a quay length of approximately 450 meters and multiple berths, currently has a capacity of 8,376 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs). RSGT already operates the Patenga Container Terminal (PCT), which began handling import cargo in May 2025 after installing a scanner for $3 million, significantly increasing its throughput.
