The impact of the Yantian Port epidemic has exceeded the Suez Canal ship? 101 ports around the world are blocked!

"As of now, the number of berths in production in the Yantian Port Area has reached 9, and 8,000 export heavy containers of ETA-7 are received every day, and the daily throughput is nearly 24,000 TEUs. The overall operating capacity of the port area’s terminals has been restored to 70%....in On the premise of doing a good job in the prevention and control of the epidemic, Yantian Port is expected to basically resume production levels by the end of June.

my country's epidemic prevention and control efficiency has been quite high. However, considering that Yantian Port is the fourth largest port in the world and the third largest in China, it is responsible for more than 1/3 of Guangdong’s foreign trade imports and exports, and 1/4 of the country’s trade with the United States. The daily container handling capacity can reach 36,000 TEUs. The slowdown will have a significant impact on international logistics and the global supply chain. Some analysts even believe that the impact of congestion at the South China port this time may be more serious than that of the Changci freighter that jammed the Suez Canal in Egypt in March.

Lars Jensen, shipping analyst and chief executive officer of Vespucci Maritime, said that the number of congested containers at Yantian Port has exceeded the number of containers blocked in the Suez Canal due to the stranded Longsong.
