Delivering for Queensland and Queenslanders
Explore MoreSince 1984 Abbot Point Terminal has demonstrated its commitment to safety, efficiency, responsibility and partnership with the local community.
Abbot Point Operations (APO) has been contracted by North Queensland Export Terminal (NQXT) to manage the operations at the port of Abbot Point – Australia’s most northerly coal terminal – 25 kilometres north of Bowen, between Townsville to the north and Mackay to the south.
