Huizhou Port Industrial Corporation (HPIC) has been operating as a joint venture with HPH since 2006. This multi-purpose facility handles non-containerised goods such as refined oil and liquefied petroleum gas in addition to bulk cargo and containers.
The terminal is situated in the Quanwan Port Zone of the Daya Bay Economic and Technological Development Zone in Guangdong Province. The facility lies approximately 48 kilometres from Huizhou City and 74 kilometres from Shenzhen, and is thus ideally positioned to handle cargo destined for Huizhou and eastern Guangdong.
An expansion of the port will include two 50,000-tonne container berths. The first berth will commence operations at the end of 2009 and the second one will come on stream in mid-2010.
