Abstract : Container handling ports with open basin system are considered as a modern trend in planning layouts. This option becomes very attractive, in case of the suitability with the existing environmental conditions. In this research, a case study for an open basin port for container handling activity was treated. A preliminary layout was suggested and modified via carrying out the full wave agitation modeling and analyses. The modeling work was carried out by using a calibrated finite element (2-D) module with the advantage of power graphics. Based on the modeling results, the suggested open basin layout was efficiently adjusted via berths allocation, changing their orientation or changing either their type or construction materials. The research arrived to a group of conclusions that carrying out the calmness studies (full agitation analyses) and comparing the results against the international guidelines (as PIANC) helps to have the most efficient port planning.
