Analyzing the feasibility for the application of Public private partnership (PPPs) at the Port of Aden

Abstract

: Seaports are critical to the economic development of Yemen due to the country's strategic location at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, providing access to important shipping lanes for the transportation of goods and resources between Asia, Europe, and Africa. The country's economy relies heavily on the import and export of goods through its ports, particularly crude oil and natural gas, which are the country's primary exports. Port of Aden faces several challenges, including the ongoing conflict in Yemen, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient financial resources. These challenges have hindered the port's growth and development, and as a result, the port's potential has not been fully realized.
