With the occurrence of three rare typhoon activities in the northwest Pacific and my country's offshore waters, including Typhoon No. 21 "Aisani", Typhoon No. 18 "Shadr" and Typhoon No. 19 "Pakshasa".The maritime logistics system of major ports in East and South China is facing multiple challenges.
Traffic measures at various ports According to the Central Meteorological Observatory, this year's No. 21 typhoon "Aishani" has significantly weakened and stopped numbering on the northwest Pacific Ocean this morning (25th). Its residual circulation is expected to be merged into the No. 18 typhoon "Shadr" circulation.Typhoon No. 19 "Rosewood" continues to affect the Beibu Gulf and is expected to make landfall along the coast from southeastern Guangxi to the west of Leizhou Peninsula in Guangdong from the night of the 25th to the day of the 26th.Affected by Typhoon No. 19 "Rosewood" this year, the Qiongzhou Strait passenger ro-ro transport has been determined to be suspended across the board.The latest suspension arrangements are as follows: Suspension time: All lines will be suspended from 12:00 on August 25, 2026.It was originally scheduled to stop at 9 o'clock that day, but was later postponed to 12 o'clock due to the impact of the typhoon.Involved ports: Haikou New Sea Port, Xiuying Port and Railway South Port have closed their entry channels and stopped vehicles from entering the port.Estimated resumption time: The suspension is expected to last until the afternoon of August 26. The specific resumption time will be notified separately based on weather conditions.Affected by the approach of Typhoon No. 18 "Shadel", the Ningbo Maritime Safety Administration launched a Level III typhoon prevention emergency response at 9:00 on August 24.As of 8:00 on the 24th, Ningbo: 22 coastal passenger routes have been suspended one after another, and all 39 water construction projects have been suspended.Taizhou: 17 of the 18 passenger ferry routes have been suspended, and all 32 water-related projects have been suspended.Wenzhou Pingyang: The routes from Aojiang and Ruian to and from Nanji Island have been completely suspended.Fujian Province's Meizhou Island Ferry and Pingtan's "Haitan No. 1" cruise ship have issued suspension notices to prepare for ships to enter the port to take shelter.In addition, 22 passenger routes along Ningbo's coast are being suspended one after another according to changes in wind conditions, which is expected to have a chain impact on the port's collection and distribution system.
Port backlog risk and shipping delay warning At present, the two major port areas in East China and South China are facing the threat of typhoons at the same time - "Shadr" directly affects the operations of Ningbo Zhoushan Port and Zhejiang and Fujian coastal ports, while "Red Sandalwood" cuts off the Qiongzhou Strait, a key freight channel.It is worth noting that due to the impact of Typhoon White Dolphin, ships have been waiting for 5 to 6 days at Shanghai Port, and 3 to 4 days at Ningbo Port.The combined impact of Typhoon Shadr may further worsen the backlog of ships in East China ports.In addition, during the previous typhoon season, South China ports have implemented ETB-7 (7 days before the expected berthing time) entry control, and the average waiting time for ships has remained at 3 to 5 days.As "Shadr" approaches, mainline ships may jump to ports, change their calling order, and arrive at ports intensively, and feeder barge transshipments will also face delays.
Industry observation recommends that relevant port and shipping companies pay close attention to the turning point of "Shadr" and the landing process of "Red Sandalwood", and promptly adjust ship berthing and unberthing plans; and give priority to ensuring the movement of cargo in the port to avoid increasing the backlog of cargo during the suspension period; at the same time, strengthen communication with cargo owners, reserve buffer time for shipping schedule adjustment, and reduce the impact of supply chain chain reactions caused by typhoons.
