Among them, the first imported confirmed case was found, and the west port area of Yantian Port, which has suspended operations for more than a month since May 21, will be fully unsealed and start berthing operations from today!
It is learned that the west operation area of Yantian Port (West Port Area) mainly berths medium-sized container ships with a capacity of 3000Teu-6000Teu, and is also the terminal operation site where the first confirmed case was discovered. It has been closed for more than a month now!
▲Yantian West Port Area
According to the announcement of today's press conference, the Yantian Port West Operation Area (West Port Area) will be fully unsealed from today and start berthing operations!
The main port area of Yantian Port will be fully restored in two days, and ship berthing will be normalized gradually!
According to the official information of today's press conference: the main port area of Yantian Port is expected to fully recover from two days later, that is, on June 24, and the normalization of ship berthing will be gradually realized!
At that time, the density of yards in Yantian International Container Terminal may further decrease, and the efficiency will rise steadily!
▲The world's first single container terminal - Yantian Port
Yantian Port is one of the busiest ports in the world. As one of the container terminals with the largest single throughput in the world, Yantian Port is responsible for more than 1/3 of Guangdong's foreign trade import and export, and 1/4 of Japan's trade with the United States. The container throughput of Shenzhen Yantian Port last year was nearly 50% higher than that of Los Angeles, the busiest container port in the United States.
Therefore, the suspension of Yantian Port caused by the epidemic has had a great impact on the global shipping and logistics industry. The news revealed by the Shenzhen government today is also the industry's long-awaited news!
Looking forward to the revival of Shenzhen Yantian Port as soon as possible, this is extremely critical not only to South China, but also to the recovery of the global shipping and logistics industry.
