Taking an iron ore loading port engineering in the Arctic area of Canada as an example，aiming at the characteristics of the waterborne transport and freight volume limited by the ice condition of the sea area，this paper carries out the preliminary simulation analysis to propose the design vessel combination for different seasons based on the natural conditions and in-situ status，determines the general layout plan for functional zones including ore dock，stockyard，temporary construction dock，freight dock，and oil tank farm suited to local conditions，and orderly connects the functional zones by roads，embankments，and causeways.Besides，the paper analyzes the specifications and direction of different equipment modules based on the characteristics of the finished products of the process equipment in this project transported ashore by self-propelled modular transporters and reasonably plans the transport routes of self-propelled modular transporters as well.
