Dampier is a major industrial port in the Pilbara region in the northwest of Western Australia.[3] It is located near the city of Karratha and Port Walcott.[4]
Dampier Port is part of the Dampier Archipelago and is primarily a port for the export of iron ore from Rio Tinto mines, LNG and salt. The port services petrochemical, salt, iron ore and natural gas export industries. Rio Tinto exports large volumes of iron ore, especially Pilbara blend through the port, and in September 2010 announced plans to expand capacity.[5][6] At the 2011 census, Dampier had a population of 1,341.[7]
