The aim of this research is to investigate the hydrodynamic status of Mahshahr export port. Initially, the modeling of tidal streams in the starting point of Khurmousa by the tidal inputs of Rahnamaian station was performed in logical manner and the results obtained from the inner point of Khurmousa was calibrated with inputs from Imam Khomeini station port and satisfactory results were achieved. During the next stage, by considering the main aim of this research, a model specific to the area of export port of Mahshar was developed. Based on the results from field measurements and the results obtained from the model, the tidal amplitude balance in export port of Mahshahr is 4.25 meters, the maximum annual ebb is 2.25 meters and the annual minimum is 2 meters. The velocity of tidal streams in Mahshahr export port parallel to the channel and during the most part of the year is between 0.5 to 1 meters per second. The pattern of tidal streams is constant throughout the year and experiences no changes
