Abstract
This project examines the present situation regarding protection against marine environmental pollution by noxious substances, other than oil, in the major ports of Saudi Arabia. The existing facilities for such protection are investigated for each of the major ports in turn, and are summarised with comments on their strengths and weaknesses with reference to international requirements and recommendation. Proposals are then offered towards the improvement of these facilities with suggestions on how these proposals might be implemented.
