| Abstract | ||
| Efficiency in container terminals is crucial, as it directly impacts the speed, cost-effectiveness, and overall competitiveness of global trade networks, facilitating smoother cargo flow and enhancing supply chain performance. This study aims to assess the current situation of Libyan and Egyptian terminals from 2018 to 2022 using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). It also seeks to provide recommendations and proposals through a clear timeline plan to enhance port efficiency. The study utilized a deductive approach to achieve its objectives. The analysis results for both Libyan and Egyptian terminals indicate that the current efficiency situation in container terminals is marked by a complex set of challenges. These terminals experience continuous congestion, inadequate infrastructure to handle increasing cargo volumes, and a lack of high operational efficiency, which leads to ship delays and slow processing of vessels and cargo. Additionally, heightened security concerns, such as theft and terrorism, further exacerbate the situation by increasing insurance costs and causing additional delays. Moreover, administrative, and bureaucratic procedures contribute to the overall complexity of port operations in Libya. | ||
